It's been a miserable few months. Scores of books have been started and forgotten. Thousands of words have been glanced at disdainfully and discarded. I've read pujosonkhyas, bits of Steinbeck, a few pages of Lemony Snicket. One whole chapter of Joseph Heller.

It is nightmarishly ridiculous, this reader's block. And it is breathtaking in its loneliness.

  1. Reading a book from cover to cover is impossible these days. Tried an EReader? You will flick and swipe through your collection seldom finishing a single ebook. Great blog, March Hare. Wonder why you didn't place a 'follow this blog' widget on your blogs. absolutely brill!
