Some reading failures

Hi guys,

I am bogged down in the middle of Henry James' The Bostonians. I made a resolution to read or reread all of his work in 2019 and I was dashing along until I got to the middle of The Bostonians. I imagine no one is surprised. One of these weeks I'll wade out of this morass.

In my airbnb there are hundreds of books and one night, falling asleep over HJ, I picked up Out of Africa. It is wonderful. The movie eclipsed the book in my memory. That is a shame. The writing is sharp, perceptive, vivid, funny. I'm just worried I won't finish it before we leave.
