Delton, Micklewait, Puig, Mags

Since my last post I've read an issue of The New Yorker, The Economist, The New Scientist, and OK Magazine. I also read Delton's 29 Mistakes Writers Shouldn't Make, which was actually very good, Micklewait's God Is Back, an exploration of the role of religion in public life. I especially liked the analysis of American-style religion. I also read Kiss of the Spider Woman, by Manuel Puig, which was interesting, although I am tiring of his habit of mixing fantasy and real life. However, as a standing on its head of Scheherazade, I thought it was very good. I've got the last volume of Alice Munro stories to get through, and then it's on to the complete works of Denis Diderot.
