I have been devouring “2666” by Roberto Bolano.  I’m not even sure  what captivates me in this book.  Not my usual reaction to a book I am devouring, indeed.  Is it the raw emotion that isn’t explained or rationalized?  The writing style reminds me of the thoughts I would have during EMDR (a therapy for PTSD)… at the same time, I realize that this is exactly the kind of writing that would’ve very much put me off in the past.  I wonder what has changed.  Is it my own growing comfort with my own emotions? 

Your turn!  Comments?  Questions?  Musings?

Time for me to eat pudding…
