I always read Alice Walker too quickly. This time it's Anything We Love Can Be Saved (and big thanks again to somechicksings for the recommendation) and now that I've articulated this revelation it's got me wondering what else I've read too quickly and need to reread. The Left Hand of Darkness leaps to mind as a book I felt like I was missing the point of even as I read it (but did that make me go back and reread it? no.) I should write Ms. Walker fan mail based solely on just this one teeny tiny thing I've learned about myself from reading her work, but of course her awesomeness is such that it'll render me inarticulate if I ever do try to put pen to paper addressed to her. Um. I like this book I'm reading, yes I do.
