I tend to agree with you but the lure of the books I've not read is  
usually stronger than the desire to reread the old ones.  I'm  
probably a plot-level reader at heart.   Most recent reread was "The  
Masters of Petersburg"  but before that was The Confusions of Young  
Torless by Robert Musill.   I've now got Midnight's Children kinda  
started again and Interpreter of Maladies also - I'm not really far  
enough along in them to call them rereads yet - I popped them open to  
the first chapter and read that -

Meanwhile,  Passionate Nomad:  the Life of Freya Stark by Jane  
Fletcher Geniesse  beckons.  (biography)
