Books I did not pick for November. No real reason, they all looked like fun reads, and I will probably read some of them on my own. So many books to read.
Austerlitz by W.G. Sebald
the Illumination by Kevin Brockmeier
Crabwalk by Gunter Grass
Sexing the Cherry by Jeanette Winterson
Umbrella by Will Self
Cubop City Blues by Pablo Medina
A wicked Company by Phillip Blom
Saving the School by Michael Brick
Nox by Anne Carson
My Life by Lyn Hejinian
Trilogy by H. D.
The last two I have thought about for awhile and still may do if I can think of nothing else. Doubtful prospect.

Wallace's biography sounding very familiar
So I'm reading D.T. Max's biography on DFW, and I'm noticing a trend in Wallace, and the main character from The Marriage Plot. Either Eugenides did research on depression akin to Wallace, did research on Wallace himself alongside Max, or some other form of psychoanalytical research, and formed his character. Very intriguing.
