Books I'm currently reading and not finishing and feeling moderately oppressed by

A l'ombre des jeunes filles en fleur -- Proust
The White Bone -- Barbara Gowdy
Voyage along the Horizon -- Javier Marias
The Poetics of Space -- Blanchot
The Foucault Reader
Hard Boiled Wonderland -- Haruki Murakami
Twilight of the Superheroes -- Deborah Eisenberg
The Secret Goldfish -- David Means

The not finishing/oppressed by thing has nothing to do with the books. I'm just in that leaping from book to book in search of something/who knows what states of mind that too often afflict me.
