About meI used to be a grad student in English, but now I'm a math teacher. My husband and I have just returned from a year in Argentina!
About my libraryI am trying to build my collection of science fiction and science-y fiction. The Spanish books represented therein are mostly my husband's, but I have read several of them as well.

But it's funny, The Echo Maker is one of those books that has surfaced in my mind more often than others. As a "post-9/11" novel, I appreciated the subtlety of its approach; I think that this, more than any other reason, is why the book has ended up resonating with me so strongly.
Have you read all of Powers? I haven't been able to decide whether I'm going to make Galatea 2.2 or The Gold Bug Variations my next Powers read.
