On Reading

I love both non-fiction (see HERE for my top 5 non-fictions books of 2009, for instance) and fiction (see HERE for my top 5 fiction books of 2009, for instance), but in thinking about it right now I suspect the biggest difference is that while there's almost nothing about JFK or Ben Franklin or Jefferson that reminds me of myself, hardly a day goes by in which I'm not Pip or Marcel or Clyde Griffiths or Peter Leroy...Raskol, even.
