Castellanos Moya is one of the best living Central American writers today; he was a close friend of Bolaño. The other book is a non-fiction that captured my attention. |
Visited my favorite used bookstore in Nashville for the first time in over a month today. Bought a lot more books than usual, so the book porn will be divided into two posts. This one is devoted to non-English books I bought.
Two books associated with Mario Vargas Llosa. |
Bought an extra copy of La vida es sueño to give as a birthday gift to someone dear to me; the other is a 16th century novel. |
Been meaning to buy this Vallejo for a while now. Little idea what the other is about. |
A Dutch Bible and an Allende novel that I didn't have in hardcover format. |
Been meaning to read Quasimodo for a while (this is a bilingual edition); the Eco is a replacement copy. |
A Diderot and a Hugo novel that I didn't already own. |
Curious about the Giraudoux and I have yet to read Fo in any language, so why not a play in French? |
The second post will feature mostly YA fictions that will be read and likely given as gifts as part of the exchange of YA/children's favorites.
