I finished rereading The Demon-Haunted World a few weeks ago. I originally read it in the 90s. It’s a book that should be assigned reading for high school, college, or ordinary people.

In Search of Lost Time by Marcel Proust; translated by C.K. Moncrieff and Terence Kilmartin; revised by D.J. Enwright.

I’m reading about 12 pages per day; it will take the entire year.

Orange cats. ❤️

Currently reading: Elena Knows by Claudia Piñeiro; translated from the Spanish by Frances Riddle; Charco Press, 2021, 153 pages. My reading buddy is Pip.

The first have of the novel has been fantastic.

A Monday afternoon. Reading with two buddies.

Maybe while singing Christmas carols they could sing Monty Python’s Spam song but substitute “guns” for “spam” for holiday cheer.

I have the P&V in hardback and the Michael Katz on Kindle. I’m going for the Katz.

I like that one too.

I can’t wait until February and I start rereading this novel.

Tibby has tortitude. If you have a tortie cat you probably know what I’m talking about.
