And the authors and books Chad and/or Tom want to reread:

• Ulysses by James Joyce
• Absalom, Absalom! by William Faulkner
• Hopscotch by Julio Cortázar
• Lolita by Vladimir Nabokov
• Philip K. Dick, generally
• Tree of Smoke by Denis Johnson
• This week's music is "The Two of Us" by The Jesus and Mary Chain.
