Current Read


In what I like to call my “book depository” – which is basically a stacked pile of books in a corner in my bedroom – a book has sat in patient wait of the day when I would give it the attention it deserved for almost two years. I’ve partially read it, wrote assignments and even an exam on it but I never appreciated or even completed it. I then remembered, randomly last night whilst watching Parenthood and drinking coffee a line from the first few pages of the book that reads “Things have a life of their own, it’s simply a matter of waking up their souls” this beckoned for me to once again revisit the novel and that is precisely what I did.

Written by the author of acclaimed “Love in a Time of Cholera” Gabriel Garcia Marquez, “One Hundred Years of Solitude” is my current re-read and this time I promise to finish it.
