It can really be so many things to so many people. But I think I will provide a heads up in chunks (like I have done with the first five or so here), so people can join in if they so desire . . . or laugh and point at my lunacy if that's a better fit.<br /><br />Emily - There were only a few authors that I wasn't excited about, and Kerouac was one of them. I've read On the Road, and I wasn't all that excited about going another round with him, but I'm keeping my mind open. <br /><br />All - No suggestions yet? I thought for sure a few of you would recommend a Borges. Perhaps we'll cross that bridge when we get to it.Sarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01758927721152378470noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-911130560032069160.post-87653478267448781912010-08-04T12:17:31.507-04:002010-08-04T12:17:31.507-04:00Wow, you're doing ALL of them?

I've read all the Volume IV interviews & am currently plugging away on Ashbery's <em>Notes from the Air</em>, so that will be my first contribution...don't think I'll commit to doing all these pairings, since I know there are a few authors here I don't like (*cough*KEROUAC*cough*), but it sounds like such fun; I'll definitely participate to some extent!Emilyhttp://www.eveningallafternoon.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-911130560032069160.post-54545914688448170082010-08-04T10:38:34.283-04:002010-08-04T10:38:34.283-04:00I am all over this although I am not sure how I wi...I am all over this although I am not sure how I will make this work yet.

I figure it will take me at least a year, but it could be longer than that. It's just something I plan to plug away at as time allows. The first few will move pretty quickly, but after that . . . we'll see.Sarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01758927721152378470noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-911130560032069160.post-90536116328231650012010-08-03T23:54:39.218-04:002010-08-03T23:54:39.218-04:00WOW.

I am very impressed, and I'd love to share the journey with you, but my upcoming schedule doesn't permit me a chance to fit this into it...I don't think? Let me take a look and think about it!Natalie~Coffee and a Book Chickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12369504951819517390noreply@blogger.com
