Reading progress update: I've read 117 out of 256 pages.

The Sheltering Sky - Paul Bowles, Michael Hofmann

 

For a guy trying to save his marriage, Port spends a lot of time following pimps around town wherever he goes.

 

Also, I get vibes of the first McEwan I read (and hated) off this book. I wonder if McEwan was influenced by The Sheltering Sky when he wrote The Comfort of Strangers.
