kottke.org book club, take 1AUG 02 2004

In this thread from last week, I floated the idea of a kottke.org book club and there was a small positive response from you, the readership. Since I don't have the time to coordinate a proper book club, I'm going to do this in the easiest way possible. I just started reading McSweeney's 13, "a beautifully designed anthology of contemporary art comics" edited by Chris Ware. When I finish it, I will post about it on kottke.org and ask for comments. You're welcome to read along and join the discussion when it happens.
