I really enjoyed that Ford book Larry Send a noteboard - 28/09/2009 03:07:51 AM
J.M. Coetzee, Elizabeth Costello

Do you like Coetzee? I've heard some good things about him.


I've been hearing the same as well, but this will be the first book of his that I'll read.

Speaking of Ford, don't know if you saw this when I linked to it on OF before its close, but I interviewed him recently:

Illusions fall like the husk of a fruit, one after another, and the fruit is experience. - Narrator, Sylvie

Je suis méchant.
