Today, I was able to go see my colleague & friend at her apartment. We had soup, tea, & talked about books by a fire. She sent me home with the tagged book. It felt delightful & cozy, so hyggeligt. If you are reading this, my hope is that you also had at least one moment of coziness and contentment today.
In the spirit of wanting to do better in the new year, my plan is to catalog all these books that I‘ve acquired in 2020, as well as read the ones I haven‘t had a chance to! Bc of covid, I‘ve subscribed to three publishers I love this year, and I‘m definitely stacking the to-read pile 😅📚
Thanks to PM Press, Verso, and Haymarket Books for keeping me inspired with these covers and titles. Can‘t wait to actually go thru these works!
pickEdward Abbey is best known for fiction and non-fiction, but he dabbled in poetry, writing some in his journals, occasionally submitting some poems for publication (none were accepted). This collection gathers those poems, some quite lovely and sophisticated, a few bawdy and adolescent. Still, the spirit of the man and his philosophy is quite alive in these words and fans of his other work should seek it out.
Here's my #bookhaul from yesterday's #librarysale. Not bad for $9!
My lady! ✊#dissent
