Confessions

I’m off to India in a few short hours. I’m going to be lazy and use Maud’s post on James Wood and Coetzee’s latest. Miss Maud has also provided links to previous reviews that Wood has done of Coetzee’s work–and, more surprising treats, two other texts, one by Peter Brooks and another by Coetzee, dealing with confession and faith in the work of Dostoyevsky and others. I’ll read the Wood review on the plane and, once I get the chance, report back from a warmer place. If we don’t talk before that, happy holidays and Merry Christmas!

(The image above, Maud tells us, is of Dostoyevsky’s notes for chapter 5 of The Brothers Karamazov.)
