88/365: The Sound and the Fury

I read "A Rose for Emily" tonight and liked it a lot (reminded me of Stephen King, but maybe a little subtler). Now it's on to The Sound and the Fury. I'm pretty excited because (1) it's my wife's favorite author and (2) she says I'll like it and she's smart about such things.

 

This is the stack of books on the little table pretending to be my nightstand: Faulkner, my journal, selected works of St. Thomas Aquinas, The Writing Life (Annie Dillard), NIV study Bible, yellow legal pad (poetry notebook), King James Bible (from confirmation). Bigger stack than I realized now that I list it out.

 

And the thing is, most of this stack gets left untouched. Maybe I secretly hope I'm getting wiser and more knowledgeable through osmosis each night.
