New Books

Courtesy of Birchbark Books in Minneapolis (conveniently located on 2115 West 21st Street in Minneapolis), I have bought

-100 Years of Solitude - Gabriel Garcia Marquez (already read, but I'm looking for the re-read)
-The Trouble With Poetry - Billy Collins (not a huge Collins fan, and, like most poetry, this will be put on a shelf and brought down only to read a couple poems at a time)
-The Burial at Thebes - Seamus Heaney (a version of Sophocles' Antigone. I figured I loved Ajax so much, so I'd try some more Sophocles. I don't, however, know how to pronounce Antigone. Is it Antigone or Antigone. Whatever.)

Reviews coming.
