Reading every day again :)

We got assigned the next three chapters of "Gatsby" to read by Thursday, so I'm reading (and reading-logging) chapter II today, chapter III tomorrow, and chapter IV on Wednesday  :)
______________________________
8:23 p.m.  Chapter II is 15 pages long.

8:25 p.m.  The first page beautifully describes the quite striking cover art.

8:28 p.m.  "Though I was curious to see her, I had no desire to meet her ..."---this author is the God of verbs  :)

8:38 p.m.  So the room is shrinking around Mrs. Wilson as she revolves on a pivot.  The wild associations are somewhat reminiscent of European poetry of that era (more Garcia Lorca than Andre Breton, though, I think).

8:54 p.m.  Done.  And:  a-mazing!!  :)
