Now we were entering the great and final city of America. We got there in early morning. Times Square was being torn up, for New York never rests.

About

The 100 Greatest Books Challenge is all about my personal confrontation with the greatest literary minds throughout history (supposedly). I will be wrestling with 100 books straight off the list found at thegreatestbooks.org. My lifespan permitting, I will read each and every one and then throw myself a pie party. For more details, check out one of the introductory pages from April 2013 or the "About" section of the menu.
