thus spaketh hegemonically

Hey, I'm going to pull a hegemon here. Given my conversations over telephone and e-mail with some of you, it seems there's interest in Ishiguro's Never Let Me Go and Freakanomics for our September selection. Since most of us are in transit this month (switching houses, apartments, states, whole states of mind), and to simplify the whole book-buying thing while we're in transit, I say let's stick with these two for September. Suggestions for October readings can be posted in the middle of September.

Looking forward to your posts,
Jeannie
