The Sun Also Rises

Good grief. How did I get to be almost-sixty without reading this book? It's a brilliant story of a group of lost souls drifting, drifting, drifting, and it's told with the simplest of words (I'd love to see what comes up if you ran this whole book through Wordle or another word cloud generator...I can almost imagine it...I'm pretty sure “good” would be the size of the Eiffel Tower on the page.) and thousands of tiny conversations and lots of fishing and bull fighting and, of course, drinking and drinking and drinking.
