Here’s a revised list of all the books I’m currently in the process of reading, the idea being that when I finish them, I can write a little summary here which will, eventually, go towards my thesis’ literature review. I’m also hoping it will shame me into getting on with some damn reading!
Lily Briscoe’s Eyes: Bloomsbury, Modernism, and China
Patricia Laurence
(This is a ‘new’ one which has marched to the head of the queue, cos it’s an inter-library loan, and I’ve got to get it read and ‘processed’ before the 23rd April!)
The Chan’s Great Continent
Jonathan Spence
The Order of Things
Michel Foucault
Orientalism: History, theory and the arts
John Mackenzie
(I’m actually re-reading this one.)
Mao’s Last Revolution
Roderick MacFarquhar and Michael Schoenhals
(This is – believe it or not – my bedtime reading. Yes, I am a strange girl.)
I’ve started a list of books finished in my sidebar.
