Too often I read a book, and then quickly forget most of it (or all of it, for less memorable works). I'm hoping this site helps me remember at least something of what I read. (Blog commenced July 2006. Earlier posts are taken from book notes.) (Very occasional notes about movies or concerts may also appear here from time to time.)
Gave up after 600 of 800 pages.The stories were very similar after awhile, mostly about high society folks moving between America (i.e. NY, Boston and environs), Paris, London; pointing out differences, foibles.
I've since read a bunch more about James (and his brother William) so should go back to these.
