Inspired by supremely overly intelligent parents, Joey and I are bookworms. We have decided to do a themed reading list as we travel. (Ok...I may be unfairly pinning that on Joseph - I'm a nerd, I did this instead of homework last week) This also translates into over half our luggage being books we shed along the way... If you wish to read along:
ireland/london - the house of splendid isolation by o'brien
morrocco/brussels - points in time by bowles
egypt - the plague by camus, the cairo trilogy by mahfouz
jordan/israel/palestine - edges: o israel o palestine by skolkin-smith
turkey - the black book by pamuk
for fun/all the time - another roadside attraction by robbins, slouching towards bethlehem by diddion
