I have so many questions about this book.

1. If Margo had been hanging around SV for a year, where was she staying? She had to be close enough to Casa Wakefield to sneak peeks at Liz's diary, right?

2. Wouldn't the glass have left a scar in Margo's throat?

3. Did they not perform an autopsy on Margo? Wouldn't theyhave noticed she was a heavy smoker?

"Any collection of John Cheever’s short stories. I’m not a big fan of much of what passes itself off as literary fiction, finding it to be insipid, self-indulgent, plotless, and pointless. However, Cheever could write about everyday life and make it fascinating. His psychological insights are deft, never heavy-handed, and sometimes, as in his story “The Enormous Radio,” he veers into some really strange territory."

"Before that, I read a book called The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time. I go to bookstores when I’m in London or America. I get a coffee and keep browsing for hours—something I can’t do in India. I come back home with a bagful of books. I’m always stopped at customs as they think I’m carrying some heavy electronic items!"

"This record is a gift that keeps on giving. I listened to the CD on a loop for months in my car. It’s unsuspecting: On first listen, it just sounded like one long song, but upon closer inspection, there’s a whole universe of small, strange moments, peaks and valleys. It’s a progressive concept album—both extremely heavy and lighthearted—with some beautiful sadness sprinkled in between."

Abandon all hope ye who enter here
A very influential book that has in ways I didn't realize has made references and framed how I think of things before I ever read the book.
It is a heavy read and as you progress down the circles of hell the descriptions get more and more gruesome. I think everyone should read this at least once.
