Noticed you liked The Bluest Eye, and I was wondering if you'd be interested in reviewing my new novel and posting your comments here as well as a few other book-related sites. Thought you might like my book since it's also southern and a bit dark. I could e-mail you the novel in an e-book format if you'd like (I'm out of physical copies at the moment). Let me know if you're interested. Here's a link to a summary in case you're interested:

Thanks for your reply, Muge. I looked at those two websites and didn't see anything that caught my attention, but I looked around a little more and found http://tulumba.mezunusa.com. I'm thinking of getting Orhan Pamuk's Snow, because I got the English translation from SantaThing, so that I could resort to that if necessary...but they say it's very involved. Anyway, thanks for the encouragement!
Muge, thanks so much for your comment! I know so little about Turkish literature...and it's nice to hear that somebody else isn't completely impressed with Uzuner. I'm going to see if I can struggle through with her, though. Is there a good on-line American place to buy books in Turkish?

I am also very busy--but since I'm a graduate student, English instructor, and library assistant, reading all the time comes with the territory! Sometimes I get so stressed that I wonder why I'm doing what I'm doing, but then I remember that it lets me read all the time while on the clock :)
Your library is really quite interesting. I use my interesting libraries to get check-out recommendations, since the KU library doesn't lend to browsing, and I actually checked out Bel Canto because of you--when I get around to reading it, I'll let you know!
Hello - i enjoyed browsing your library. i see we both like authors like Jose Saramago.
The reason you know we share the book is that I went into Gumilev's author page and combined the titles, and of course I was interested in whoever had the other copy; I'm glad you wrote. (I'm afraid I can't read Turkish, but I've been to Turkey and enjoyed it, and I'm quite interested in Turkish history.) As for the books, yes, it's a problem; they were stacked up on the floor of my apartment in NYC, and then when my wife and I moved to Pittsfield and bought a house we acquired a basement, where I store a fair number of books, and that helped, but the books are already piling up in my office and my wife is talking about getting another bookcase... But I can't live without books!
