Yesterday, for the first time in almost five months, I trotted off to a bookstore. I knew precisely what I wanted to get.If you read a few posts back, I wrote about Khaled Hosseini's first novel, "The Kite Runner". Well, it was a runaway success. And I enjoyed it so much that I have been intending to read his second effort. Neatly and firmly tucked under my arm, I made my way to the cash register.
"Good afternoon. No, I do not have a Barnes & Noble book club member's card, yes I found everything just fine thank you and now I would like to purchase this exquisite piece of cultural literature from your fine establishment."
And off I trotted.
Tonight I shall bury myself in the pages of "A Thousand Splendid Suns" and get lost in time-forgotten Afganistan.
