I've finished with the Brontë rabbit trail--at least for now. It had been several years since I'd read Wuthering Heights,
so I thought I'd go through it again. Maybe it's an age thing, but
this time I was more focused on Nellie Dean. I found myself chuckling
over the narrator's offhand decision to detour to Gimmerton at the end
of the book.
I also managed to find time to read all of Cryptonomicon. So what if the kitchen floor didn't get mopped this week? Anathem is still my favorite, but I enjoyed this one because the characters seem plausible; several remind me of people I know IRL.
