More 1998 reading and comments

April 1998:
Winter Kills, by Richard Condon (Not as good as his other books.)
The Captain's Verses, by Pablo Neruda (They sound better in Spanish.)
Writings from the New Yorker 1927-1976, (Column) by E.B. White (Best in April)
Mrs. DeWinter, by Susan Hill ("Sequel" to Rebecca. Deflating.)
London, by Ken Rutherford (fiction; long and tedious)

I'm in a more or less foul mood. It's almost like being in love.
