What you reading?

I just began reading the city of Fallen Angels by John Berendt one of my favorite authors. He discusses the happenings and events leading to the courtrrom drama of the burning of la fenice. I enjoy his daily observations of local customs, unlike the Garden of Good and Evil there is not mystical vodoo going on but there is a complex socipolitical structure entrench in the Venetian mindset, which leads to interesting characters.

I am also reading Widow of the South, the book tales the real story of a widow who cedes her land for a cementery to honour the dead in Tennessee.
