A while back I began reading Middlesex by Jeffrey Eugenides. It’s long, and I got impatient or distracted and put it back on the shelf even though I loved what I had read. (Perverse, yes.) I’m taking a long flight next month, and Middlesex is going with me.

Lots! But in an effort to keep it brief, I’ll list Slumberland by Paul Beatty, Middlesex by Jeffrey Eugenides, The Blind Assassin by Margaret Atwood, Mistress of the Art of Death by Ariana Franklin, The Golem and the Jinni by Helene Wecker, and The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn by Mark Twain. I could go on, clearly…
