#AutumnPlease! Day 14: #NationalChessDay The story begins with a very brief introduction of young Jake, and his neighbourhood in Harlem: from the preacher in the corner to the old men playing chess and checkers in the streets, “balancing the boards on their knees.” My review here: https://wp.me/pDlzr-lAT
Found this book from the 1950s, telling a story of the 1920s. Didn't even try to resist 😂
The other is my new reading journal.
Can't believe l finished my first one. I started here on Litsy, when l first joined in 2017. Can't believe it's been so long 😱
There was no location tag, but this is an adorable bookstore/cafe with a social justice theme in Hyannis MA. Highly recommend if you‘re in the area!
“scarlet peppers like trumpets: magnificent fennels, so white & big & succulent; baskets of new potatoes; scaly kohlrabi; big, clean-fleshed carrots; feathery salads with white hearts; pyramids of big oranges...The green and vivid colored world of fruit-gleams I have never seen in such splendor as under the market roof at Cagliari: so raw & gorgeous“ #SavvySettings Day 25 #Fair

Thinking of musical ideas, my buddy suggested we adapt this novella. After reading it, I see its potential. “I am risen!”
