I finished re-reading a book yesterday that I had been reading for the last five weeks, the USA Trilogy by John Dos Passos. It was more or less the only book I was reading during that time. (It was too big to go in my jacket pocket so I read other stuff whenever I travelled into London for a concert.) Those of you who know about my massive backlog of books may be wondering why I took time off from clearing the backlog to read something I'd already read. Well, I did last read it in 1979. A few years ago, I realised that I had all these books I'd only read once and had fond memories of many of them and wouldn't it be fun to re-read some of them, and well, why not? So usually around Christmas I chose a book from my library I want to re-read and, indeed, I started re-reading this on Christmas morning.
