Recent reading matter, that left me impressed…

Konrad Bayer: Het hoofd van Vitus Bering. (Another plug for what is the best Dutch publisher for translated literature: http://www.uitgeverij-ijzer.nl/).

David Markson: Going Down. (Pure “modernist” novel by one of the masters of contemporary “innovative” literature, from 1970, republished in 2005).

William T. Vollmann: Riding Toward Everywhere. (His latest, about hopping freight trains; in fact a treatise about freedom).
