I was in LA for the weekend and amazingly only bought two books.
Alien Candor by Andrei Codrescu and
Dance Dance Dance by Haruki Murakami. I had to buy
Dance Dance Dance because I'd read the first half on the airplane and then accidently left it there. I finished it that night and quite liked it. Surprising in places, but good as his always are. Later in the weekend I read
Things Fall Apart by Chinua Achebe. The story takes place in an African village as the village becomes exposed to white missionaries. The one thing I want to know is when it's supposed to have taken place.
