On the trip I finished another of the New York Review books I picked up at Northshire a few weeks back: Natalia Ginzburg's Valentino and Sagittarius. Ginzburg is another writer who I had, inexplicably, never read, which is sort of the point of the NYRB series. Valentino and Sagittarius are two novellas, and I enjoyed them both immensely - so, yes, highly recommended. I'm definitely going to track down some of her other work. I read most of the book sitting at a café in Coimbra, happily watching the world go by and nursing a liter of sangria.
