I have always claimed to love Hemingway but in truth it has been years since I have read any of his book so I was delighted to find that I still love him as writer after reading A Farewell to Arms. Tragic tale and very modernist but I just love his simplistic yet oddly sincere look at the world.
I also finished Warrior Woman (or Woman Warrior - I don't have the book on me right now) by Kingston. It was a story of a Chinese American girl and the stories fed to her - some of which she embraces, but most of which she rejects. Good writing. Odd stories. Great voice.
