Five books so far this week, four being books sent to me by various publishers and one being a novel by Arnold Zweig that I want to re-read as preparation for the World War I unit I'll be teaching in a month or so (care to guess what era is my favorite in both American and World History? ;)). The first picture is of the three books I received Monday, and the other picture is of the two books (including the Zweig) that I received today.
Left: Richard Morgan, The Steel Remains (I've liked his other work and am curious to see how it'll translate to a fantasy setting); Thomas M. Disch, The Wall of America (posthumous book by an author whose classic Camp Concentration will be reviewed/discussed here and on several other books on the week of October 13-17); Mark Schultz, The Stuff of Life: A Graphic Guide to Genetics and DNA (OK, this ought to be an informative read at least, right, since I'm a social studies/languages person? Hrmm...)
Left: Scott Westerfeld, The Killing of Worlds (reprint of a series of his. Need to read the first book sometime); Arnold Zweig, The Case of Sergeant Grischa (I originally read this for a WWI History class back in the Spring of 1995 and I decided now would be a good time. Too bad I was dumb and sold my copy back then for money...)
