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
5/14: more ibbotson
I have to write a conference paper over the few weeks on two of Eva Ibbotson's novels (The Dragonfly Pool and A Company of Swans). To get myself in the mood I started listening to another one of her novels (Magic Flutes) on my iPod. It was a very welcome accompaniment to my dusting-of-the-blinds this morning. And it is fun to find some of Ibbotson's favorite themes, details, and plot points in a new arrangement.
