6/9: listening

I've been listening to The Wind in the Willows recently, and today I finished it while cleaning house and playing with Tilde.  The mystical, lyrical parts with Rat and Mole are just amazing, and though I enjoyed the satirical adventures of Toad less, I got very excited by the presentation of Toad's return to Toad Hall as a parody of the Odyssey.

And then I started listening to The Day Boy and the Night Girl by George MacDonald.  So, so Platonic!  As well as strange and gorgeous.
