  • iat the moment i'm reading the pickwick papers (my first dickens!) and am loving it. surprised to find it genuinely funny. not what i was expecting at all.

    Dickens remains a great novelist. The Pickwick Papers is very, very funny.

    At the moment I'm in the middle of few things – Mason & Dixon by Pynchon, which is unbelievable; I'm re-reading Crash by Ballard; and then some Richard Ford short stories. I'm about to start Moby Dick, too, which I've never read before.
    I could never get on with Pynchon. Too slow.

    Moby Dick is a great read. Hope you enjoy it.
