Sunday theatre with Daisy-May, who‘s decided she‘s tired of being upright and would like to sprawl on her awful couch for a few hours, thanks.
(The STORIES I could tell you about this couch! It‘s an atrocity. Those leather couches people leave by the curb as freebies and nobody ever actually picks up because they‘re AWFUL are nicer than this late Victorian piece to which my aunt is hopelessly attached.)
This week‘s little library haul features another play by Tomson Highway (love his stuff), a couple volumes of poetry, and a crime comic.
September 2021 #BookSpinBingo results: no spin books or bingos, but I read the books I really wanted to read.
pickRead in honour of the first National Day of Truth and Reconciliation. This was a funny and shocking play. It has a grain of Michel Tremblay‘s Les Belles-soeurs, but I think the characters in this play are more supportive than the characters in the Tremblay play. Definitely going to read more by Highway, probably Dry Lips Oughta Move to Kapuskasing.
#bookmail Lee Maracale mentioned this in her brilliant book 'memory serves' and no I really want to read it.
Reviewing this masterpiece for work today -- an unexpected pleasure in a day I thought would be pretty boring. Another way books fix everything. (Also you should definitely read this play. And everything Highway has ever written.)
