10 April - thorns
I‘ve been sick, so I‘m a couple of days behind.
Recent acquisition:
📖 A Colder Eye: The Modern Irish Writers by Hugh Kenner
A recent essay collection from the founder of NYRB Classics. Looks very interesting!
repost for @TheAromaofBooks:
Hey friends!! So I've been looking at my life and my upcoming schedule, and I am going to pause #RandomClassics definitely for January, and maybe longer, kind of depending. I still have a huge list of classics I would like to read, and I have really enjoyed reading these with you all, but for now I need to skip a month!! I'll let everyone know when I am ready to pick back up again!!
Listening to Edwin Frank talking about his new book (tagged). Thank God for Zoom; I can listen in from miles away 🥰
A Modern Library Giant. A book I couldn‘t resist at Goodwill even though I have too many books! My bone to pick is in the subtitle , by the “men “ who made it. No women here , expected in the time frame. I‘m sure I will still like it 😁
bailedNope. Can‘t do it. This one is NSFW, and that doesn‘t really bother me but I get the feeling that Jerry Saltz is particularly obsessed with over-sexualized (perverted, as he sometimes refers to them) pieces of art. That‘s just not my thing. And the worse for me was the feeling that the art world and its critics might just be way too pretentious for me. I love art, and I love finding connections to the emotional, political, and spiritual themes ⬇️
