the unknown knowns by jeffrey rotter. first novel. pokes fun at the paranoid post 9/11 world americans live in. i'm on page 10ish. so far, it's a keeper. just finished the first person by ali smith. short stories (i love short stories). despite reading a bit pretentious (pot/black), and a common theme (i'd rather be getting a small taste of many themes) it was very good in a sort of existential crisis kind of way.
