unhinged every morning i read with a couple cups of coffee


i rediscovered the joys of the library here in seattle. the central library was a few blocks from my old job. ten floors of library goodness along with a lecture hall, galleries, permanent collections and music practice rooms. i heart the library here. even the little branch in my hood is excellent.

epitome of incomprehensibility A Canticle for Leibowitz was good and weird. I haven't read anything quite like it. The Chrysalids has some superficial similarities - aftermath of nuclear war in U.S. and how religious groups deal with it - but Canticle is more complex and experimental.

Now reading The_Blythes_Are_Quoted by L.M. Montgomery.
