My sister in law gave me 120 Days of Sodom for Christmas so I'm reading that. So far, it's not what I was expecting.

Different vibe. I was expecting a grim horror show, something like reading Peter Sotos (who I have read about two or three sentences of and then stopped) but it's more fun and silly than I was expecting. But also I've only read about 20 pages. |

Been stuck on Jack Vance and Michael Moorcock paperbacks for a good while now.

I read a trilogy of Moorcock’s once. Warlord of the Air, I think? It was fine but every plot was essentially the same: Guy goes back in time, encounters some steampunk variation of a famous dictator. |

A Widow for One Year by John Irving. Just started it after finishing Garp.
Any Irving fans in these parts? |
