just finished reading "white oleander" by janet fitch. forget that it's an oprah book club selection-- it's a great book. i read it in four nights. searingly beautiful. seriously. i found myself thinking about what was said in the book more deeply than i've thought about just about anything in a long time. thoughts that would keep me up, keep me reading, keep me thinking. i'm half-tempted to re-read it this week. it's a book about home, about longing, about belonging, about love, about growing up, and about lonliness, which the protagonist's mother claims is THE human condition. interesting, no? seriously, pick up this book.
life is good. same insanity, different dress.
mil besos--rmg
