I so enjoy reading on the train that I can't understand why someone would choose to just do nothing but ride. There is just so much pleasure and insight to be gained from a good book. I take the train from Ipswich to Boston and work at the Museum of Fine Arts. My own reading rambles widely (maybe even wildly), and recently I have shifted my routine, reading one book on the morning commute and another on the way home. Currently I'm reading a book of collected Native American Wisdom, which I guess would fall into the inspirational/self-improvement class, and Brian Greene's "The Hidden Reality" , about parallel universes and the deep laws of the cosmos, or so the blurb says. Not that I'm deep...I recently finished another of James Patterson's cops and crazed killers books on the inbound and "How to Write a Sentence" on the outbound, along with a couple of volumes of Rilke's work. I enjoyed your observations and feel like a fellow traveler on the train. Keep writing. Good stuff...StoneyStonehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04358909622471753069noreply@blogger.com
