At the beach. In the car. On the plane. Stretched out in the hammock. Or, if things keep going the way they have…killing a rainy day on the couch. Any place you find yourself this summer is a great place for a good read. Loyola professor Al Gini stops by to lay out a few picks you might enjoy from his summer bookbag. Here’s Gini’s list: 1) The Whites by Richard Price/Harry Brandt 2) The Death of Caesar by Barry Strauss 3) The Girl Next Door by Ruth Rendell 4) The Lady from Zagreb (Bernie Gunther) by Philip Kerr (Also: Berlin Noir: March Violets; The Pale Criminal; A German Requiem by Philip Kerr) 5) The Narrow Road to the Deep North by Richard Flanagan 6) The Zone of Interest by Martin Amis (Flickr/ruminatrix)
