The first time self read Saturday, by Ian McEwan, was in 2009. She only knows for sure because she did a Search on this blog. And up it popped, complete with spoilers.
But, since she believes she has more time to appreciate reading while she’s in Ireland, she’s going to give Saturday another go.
Amazing how ‘interior’ it is. Also amazing: that it’s about a surgeon. And she just got through reading Do No Harm, by neurosurgeon Henry Marsh. She swears, that’s just coincidence.
What Saturday‘s already succeeded in doing, even though self is only a few pages in: it’s gotten her to add a few more lines to the story she began three days ago, after arriving at the Tyrone Guthrie Centre in Annaghmakerrig. Working title: Transporter 2118
“As a matter of fact . . . ” I thought, but why mince words when she could read minds.
Tu-an Ju rose from the bed.
Oh. I didn’t realize she was that tall.
Looks like the transporter might have a problem.
lol
Stay tuned, dear blog readers. Stay tuned.
