Books I picked up to read this week....


Los Angeles Times The most accomplished literary expression of exile sensibility to have appeared to date. What is powerful and lasting about the book is Eire's evocation of childhood and his extraordinary literary ability. 
The Boston Globe Eire is gifted with what might be called lyric precision
-- a knack for grasping the life of a moment through its sensuous particulars....Vigorously written and alive.
The Washington PostBursting with wonderful details and images and populated by characters so well described that they seem to be sitting next to you on the couch. 
The Miami Herald A wistful glimpse of a shattered world.



I am also reading Meister Eckhart  (c. 1260 – c. 1327).
