Re: What are you currently reading?
I find that it's a very belles-lettres kind of literature. It's centered around the personality of the main character and the nerdy gushing about history and ships. Apart from that, there are some nice descriptions and an epic Hornblower&Bush brotp.
Like, it really doesn't have any kind of bigger philosophical message. It just seeks to please the reader (hence some wild romance here and there) while simultaneously educating them.
Which doesn't make it any worse, mind you. I enjoy the thing a lot. And I love it when people write about something they know well. Forester is so adorable in his hopeless nerdiness.
Also, I'm reading Solzhenitsyn's drafts of the last volumes of The Red Wheel. It's a pretty dull piece of writing (just the facts, without even the entertaining Solzhenitsyn-esque language shenanigans), but I'm a completionist, so I couldn't leave it unfinished.
