What I Am Reading Now
"Terrorist"
by John Updike
"Affordable housing units are dwindling
in size like pieces of paper repeatedly folded. Discarded
divorcees and obsolete craftsmen in outsourced industries and hard-working people of color, grabbing for the next rung in
the climb out of the inner slums, move into the neighborhoods they can't afford to leave. Corner grocery stores have one by
one dropped away, leaving the field to franchises whose standardized logos and decors are cheerfully garish, as are the gargantuan
full-color images of their fattening fast food. As Jack Levy sees it, America is paved solid with fat and tar, a coast-to-coast
tarbaby where we're all stuck. Even our vaunted freedom is nothing much to be proud of, with the Commies out of the running;
it just makes it easier for terrorists to move about, renting airplanes and vans and setting up Web sites. Religious fanatics
and computer geeks: the combination seems strange to his old-fashioned sense of the reason-versus-faith divide. Those creeps
who flew the planes into the WTC had good technical educations. The ringleader had a German degree in city planning; he should
have redesigned New Prospect, New Jersey.......
2006 John Updike
Finished reading "Great Expectations" by Dickens. A dickens
of a novel. Sorry it took me so long to get to this deserved classic.
