2020.Book19 - LETTERS (Barth)
Like wading through waist-deep water. The exertion is pleasurable if you don't need to get anywhere.

2020.Book15 - Giles Goat-Boy (Barth)
Disappointing. Racism doesn't age well, and neither do the jokes (except the Beists "go limp!"). Felt like a slog after about the first third.

2020.Book8 - Cartesian Sonata (Gass)
This was hard to get into, but after some effort, big payoff. Also, first Penner in literature.

2020.Book7 - Immigrants in Prairie Cities (Loewen, Friesen)
Pretty interesting. General info on Canadian prairie immigration.
