What I'm reading *

I've always read. While growing up, reading was a refuge when I found life too unpleasant or stressful. Consequently I've bought a lot of books over time as well.

 
Now that I'm no longer in the rich corporate phase of my life I've rediscovered the library. Dayton's library may be maligned by some but is still a great resource. One type of book I like to read is gay fiction and I was surprised to see a lot of it in the Dayton library's catalog. Plus you can even ask them to buy particular titles, and they will!

Below you can see the five most recent books either that I'm reading or that I've acquired. You can search my books, or you can see all my books. Also my classes page has links back to this page for the books for each class.

  Set at Harvard in the late 1940s, this book could be just another story of closeted rich gay boy trying to conform to family expectations, but, as the title implies, the plot's also about Shakespeare's famous sonnets and who they're to. That Shakespeare might have been gay isn't so radical now (though it's also not widely accepted). If you're gay or an English major or a gay English major, this book's worth a read.
