Voluble

“A literary portrait of marriage”, so says this profile of Calvin Trillin of About Alice (which I read in December). A different perspective on those streamlined classics. Margaret Atwood once again on arts funding cuts.

Just finishing No Longer at Ease.

My friend Sk8 proposed to her lovely boyfriend in the company of bison on Sunday, and he said yes. Hooray!

And finally, Sunday night I saw a penguin being eaten by a seal on David Attenborough, and I’ve been traumatized ever since.
