Gay boyz reading

[jawnbc]

I'm reading:

"La grosse femme d'a coté est enceinte" (slowly)--The fat lady next door is pregnant. Michel Tremblay. Taking a looong time due to my barely serviceable French.

'Atonement" Ian McEwan. Apparently fabulous but ploggin so far

A whack of journal articles on HIV/AIDS, injection drug use, homosexuality and social capital.

So what you boyz reading?

I'm sorry to say I haven't read any Ken Saro-Wiwa, although I've heard his son interviewed on the radio. Wole Soyinka was very upset at Ken Saro-Wiwa's death and wrote some biting indictments of the government. Nigeria has a legacy in the oil industry that looks VERY pessimistic.

yeah, it's a hideous legacy...and the ignorance of most folks in the West/North about it is terrible. The book above is by his son Ken, who lives in (I think) Edmonton or Calgary. Certainly Canada...

The book I'm reading is actually by Ken Saro-Wiwa's son, about coming to terms with the legacy of having had Saro-Wiwa for a father. It's quite interesting, and he's a regular contributor to The Globe & Mail.

Yes, sirs. I understood that but didn't make myself clear in my response. :-)
