the powerbook

May 28, 2005

I finished reading The Powerbook while I was away in Baltimore. Jeanette Winterson writes excellent books, and I love to see what she does with language, imagery, and especially touch. Her storytelling is indirect and mysterious yet intimate, so I found myself flying through the book waiting to see how it all goes together, how all the pieces work.

On top of that, I even managed to laugh out loud while bits of the book on the T.

I especially recommend this book to anyone who has partaken in the silliness that is instant messaging and email storytelling.
