Reading for April, May, June 2008

April-ish:

Raise High the Roof Beam, Carpenters and Seymour: An Introduction (1963) by J. D. Salinger. Aside from Frannie and Zooey, which I read not too long ago (must have been pre-2005), this completes the published novels of Salinger.

Finished reading Trainspotting (1993) by Irvine Welsh. Given that the narrative shifts between chapters/passages, the overall story also drifts, and the final resolution is mostly superficial. There is a sequel.
