Default Re: What are you reading?

Hadrian and the Triumph of Rome -- Anthony Everitt. (sort of rough going so far, though interesting at points)

Anna Karenina -- Leo Tolstoy. (Pevear and Volokhonsky translation -- smooth as a Davidoff.)

the Heart of Shobogenzo -- Dogen. Very challenging. I think I understand about half of this, and that half I think I need to re-read.

Holiday airplane reading: Somebody Owes Me Money -- Donald Westlake. Breezy and funny, but not the best Westlake on the shelf.
