Good one! I bought it a long time ago because I read some other books by this author that I enjoyed.

Last year, at a Christmas party, I got a calendar with Shakespearean insults as a white elephant gift. It's been amusing so far.

Having the unimaginable done to you. Doing the unthinkable. That‘s what this book is about. It‘s about seeing your family members as they truly are. Yourself too for that matter. It takes looking at the past with eyes relaxed to a blur to see it, vague at first then shockingly clear. Set on a farm where you want bounty and nostalgia, you find only debt and darkness.

The language in this novel was absolutely beautiful. Unfortunately, with everything that I have going on, I just couldn‘t concentrate enough to do it justice, so I‘ve set it aside for another day. Anyway, this is a temporary bail, but a bail nonetheless ☹️

1. Yes, in high school and I immediately regretted it and felt horrible. He didn't want to be my friend after that, but we talked it out eventually.
2. “Fool“ by Christopher Moore. I remember laughing out loud reading this book.

1. My officemates and I play all kinds of practical jokes on each other. We have saran wrapped desks, changed languages and screen orientation on computers, and we have rubber band and nerf gun wars. One person even did the stapler in the jello from The Office.
2. Pocket from Fool by Christopher Moore immediately came to mind when I saw this prompt. What a great character and book.

Happy Tuesday!

peaKnit That sounds like a fun office! I was in an office like that for a long time, so fun! Keeps things light, especially when work is heavy. 8mo
lil1inblue @peaKnit It is a great office. We're a small bunch, and we try to keep it fun when we can. 😻 8mo

I'm unbelievably excited to be seeing one of my all-time favorite actors, Paul Gross, in King Lear today at the Stratford Festival. I'd been saving his episodes on the Outrageous Fortune podcast for the drive up, and I'm so glad I did. Listening to him talk about the play, and the struggles and rewards of making art more generally, was the perfect teaser for the performance and made me unexpectedly emotional more than once. #SeeMoreTheatre

quietjenn Ah, how cool! Have an amazing time! 13mo

Booksblanketsandahotbeverage This sounds like it was amazing! 11mo
Andrea313 @Booksblanketsandahotbeverage It absolutely was! I was surprised that he found so much comedy in Lear; a very different take than what I'm used to, but no less affecting. 11mo
