		<description><![CDATA[If we work on the assumption that Truman Capote’s charming reduction of Kerouak’s amphetamine-driven drivel is accurate, then blogging is certainly an easy target for comparable derision. It&#8217;s not writing. It&#8217;s typing. And as such we shall consider it here&#8230;Henry Miller for the Seinfeld set. Calvin &#38; Hobbs garbed as Salinger &#38; Murakami. You know.&#8230;]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Ok, so this is not a list of the best books published in the past decade&#8230; simply those I happened to read and enjoy most between 2000-2009. Not too many big surprises here for many of you, but a few are buried or ignored little gems. Some already have their own posts here, others will follow&#8230;]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Every time I walked past American Psycho in a book store, I was mesmerized by the cover: a vaguely victorian photograph of a sinister, steely-eyed yuppie. I knew it was a grisly book about a psycho serial killer. I didn&#8217;t read these kinds of books. Now, I don&#8217;t mind movie violence. It doesn&#8217;t get inside&#8230;]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[As a fairly dutiful reader, I tend to follow one rule: Give the book a 50-page chance at grabbing your attention. If it does, commit. Finish the damn thing, even if the deciding early pages prove to be sneaky little posers. For the past year, I’ve broken that rule time and again. The culprits: Truman&#8230;]]></description>

Then it was Great Jones Street, promising to feed my obsession with all things Dylan. Kinda boring, didn&#8217;t finish it. DL&#8217;s aloof stance and flattened affect made me wonder why I should give a&#8230;]]></description>

I reread it in English a few years later, then again in French in high school. It&#8217;s likely the first and last book I&#8217;ll ever read in three languages I read The&#8230;]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Despite (or perhaps due to) being a long-lapsed Catholic, I&#8217;d always been curious about Graham Greene. Rumor has it those Brits sure can write. This book concerns a spiritually depleted, world-famous architect who&#8217;s lost the ability to experience pleasure. Dude, that sucks.
