Greetings all. According to Weather.com, it's presently 92° F; feels like 93° F in Atlanta. "Feels like 93° degrees." What in the heck is that supposed to mean? I don't know about you, but I don't think I actually know the difference between 92° and 93°. Hot is hot, and though I'm barely able to eat anything today (third day of irritated tummy misery), I don't think I'm missing much beyond the coolness of my front door.
Today, I happen to be finishing up an anthology entitled Three Classic African-American Novels, edited, and with an introduction, by William L. Andrews. For all you African-American literature, history, and socially enlightened beings among us, check it out. Though, perhaps it's the varying unconscious who may derive the most from a thorough reading of this piece. But, for those of you cognizant Americans who simply prefer a "lighter" read (no offense intended to the writer), Amy Hempel’s Collected Stories will take you there.
After reading Lucia Silva’s (book buyer for Portrait of a Bookstore in Los Angeles, California) review of Hempel’s stories, I’ve already decided to check her out, literally. Be sure to read the excerpt!
Alright. Drum roll please...
