Life in late capitalism can be vexing, alienating, fragmenting, and otherwise frustrating. There are many wonderful things in my life, but I'm more likely to talk about what's bad rather than what's good. I'm going to try to post one good thing here each day, and if you would join in by adding a good thing from your day in the comments, I'd love it--I'd absolutely love it. --RR

I can't wait for when you report on the new books -- titles, for example. Some day you're gonna pick one I want to read "with" you!
Hello, Barbara--These are the "pleasure" books I ordered yesterday:
My Cousin Rachel by Daphne du Maurier. I thought it would be a good page-turner for a long plane-ride I'm taking in July.
and
A Long, Long Time Ago and Essentially True by Brigid Pasulka. This one I chose because I saw a nice write-up about it in the Bas Bleu catalog and because I'm trying to read a little Polish literature to connect with my roots. I'm looking forward to this one very much!
I also ordered a copy of E. M. Forster's Room With a View. I read it this spring and loved it so much that I want to have my own copy of it (I had checked it out from the library).
It would be fun to have a book-club-at-a-distance sometime!
