Daughter of Fortune by Isabel Allende. A historical, fiction novel about a woman who discards her role of gender and class to seek her passion. Allende claims that this work was an exploration of feminism. Sex workers play a great part in this novel-- Allende illustrates the comprehensive contrast between the enterprising prostitute and the victims of exploitation.

Staring at the Sun by Julian Barnes
I had read this book in my mid twenties and enjoyed it. Then it sat on my shelf, then in moving boxes, carried from one apartment to the next, and I slowly forgot about it altogether--though I remembered it was too good to put out on my stoop. So I read it again this summer, two decades later, and have refound the same words, with a whole new life in them. It's damn fine humor with wisdom thrown in.

What should I read next? What books have you relished lately? Leave me a list--here in the comments or contact me privately at Yin.Quan (at) gmail (dot) com.
