Brief Interviews with Hideous Men by David Foster Wallace.

Two at once.

First, a reread from about a year ago, awesome R.E. Howard collection of the first Conan stories:

And, a new book, basically a zombie/survival horror tale set in the Star Wars universe (for a pulp paperback, it's pretty good thus far- but I don't judge it by the same standards I judge Howard's Conan stories ):

Spent some time earlier today leafing through the Finnish translation of Rolf Nordenstreng's Europas människoraser och folkslag, third edition from 1929. Oh well.
