宮沢賢治詩集 (Miyazawa Kenji Poetry Collection)
Trying to dip my toes into Japanese poetry with one of my favorite authors. I'm actually still reading this, but alongside my current read. Most of it completely flies over my head and I have to spend an hour just reading explanations, even on what I assume are the more simple poems.
ちばしれる
ゆみはりの月
わが窓に
まよなかきたりて口をゆがむる

The Waterborn
Pleasantly surprised with this one, although the author has several annoying quirks in his writing which really get under my skin and make reading this thing a pain. He's really allergic to using the word "and", for example.

Thomas Cole by Earl A. Powell III (Biography)
I just really like Thomas Cole's paintings. Great stuff, especially Der Pokal des Riesen.
