Sophie Wilkins ~ Magic Realism painter

[nerds-yearbook]

In 1909, in a drunken stupor, Captain Jack Harkness’ men had run over a little girl and killed her. She turned out to have been the chosen one of the fairies. A week later when they were all traveling on a train, his men were all killed by the fairies and their mouths filled with rose petals. ("Small Worlds", Torchwood, TV)

BOOKS I READ IN 2023 Here's what I read in 2023. What has now become an annual tradition of sorts!

An unusual year in reading for me. The first half of the year was very slow, and I mostly finished two long books I've been trying to finish for years by William Morris and Robert Musil. Then the PSAC strike, and more time to read. After that, I made a reading plan and stuck to it, trying to read every day at least a chapter of a book on the list. I also ended up re-reading several books this year - transcribing notes at first, I ended up going over the entire book a second time. I also tried to take extensive notes on every new book. I also snuck a few theses I read onto the list - it feels weird not to include a several hundred page work I went over with a fine-toothed comb. Mostly academic books, germane to my own research and writing, but some strong forays into topics I don't normally think about much. Plus some genuinely good 'amateur' history, too.

Re-reads are marked by a plus sign and my most enjoyable or interesting reads are marked with an asterisk.
