Little, Big is on my short list. That doesn't exactly mean I'll get to it soon. My short list is a list I keep for my sister to choose birthday and Christmas books from. They're books I want to read but am in no great hurry for. I keep it at around fifteen books. Sometimes books stay on it for a few years. My sister chooses the titles that sound best to her. I had to put a sad face next to 1984 to get it.

It was because of Bloom that I first read Banville and Saramago.

I certainly don't like everything Bloom recommends. I didn't care for A Voyage to Arcturus.
