Of Books and Bicycles. Better get reading…. A Little Life, by Hanya Yanagihara →. Monday, August 3, 2015 · 1:10 pm. The Fishermen, by Chigozie Obioma. I’ve finished my first book for the (Wo)Man Booker Shadow Panel. So much so that the book becomes a plot point. This means, of course, that I can’t help but compare it to Achebe’s masterpiece and it’s not surprising that it doesn’t live up to it. And so now it’s time to start my next read, which I think will be. Better get reading…. 7 responses to “. Wedne...

My Bicycle Musings: Wednesday
http://bicyclemusings.blogspot.com/2014/10/wednesday.html
Wednesday, October 29, 2014. Rode the bike to work today. That makes two days this week! Three if you count Sunday, and my calendar does! Not much mileage, but it is better than not riding at all, says I. The NiteRider Mako headlight with its seizure-inducing strobe is at least as bright as the Malibu halogen 25 watt lamp I've been using for many years, although I'm sure the battery life of my five-pound gell cell was a bit longer. That is all I got for today! Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). San Dieg...

Of Books and Bicycles. Sunday, January 1, 2017 · 11:01 pm. 2016 in Reading: Part 1. I am currently in the middle of a fairly lengthy holiday journey across the country to visit with family, so my usual round-up of my year in reading is late and will be quick. But I want to crunch all the numbers as usual, so here we go! Audiobooks: 6. I focused more on podcasts than audiobooks this year, which has been great, as I love podcasts … but I love audiobooks too. I wrote about this dilemma here. One each by aut...

Torsdag 13 augusti 2015. Atlas över avlägsna öar. För den som inte kan få nog av Bea Uusmas Expeditionen. Ger jag dig den här. Judith Schalanskys Atlas över avlägsna öar. Har undertiteln Femtio öar som jag aldrig besökt och aldrig kommer att besöka,. Vilket borde vara skäl nog till att söka upp boken och ha den nära äventyrarhjärtat. Skulle tycka om att "kartor är abstrakta och konkreta samtidigt - och trots all förmäten objektivitet är det ingen avbild av verkligheten de ger oss, utan en vågad tolkning".

Of Books and Blooms. If you have a garden and a library, you have everything you need." - Cicero. January 11, 2017. Winterizing Your Mind, courtesy of Vivian Swift. I make my resolutions and goals, I put on multiple sweaters, I make soup. I put laminated snowflakes up on all the windows, just to give us all (me) something pretty and interesting to look at.

One of the first things they did was cut down trees, tear up their yard, and put down sod. Suggesting to the young man of the house the option of perennial grasses, he quipped that he’d really prefer concrete across the entire lot. But they’d be good for insects. So why, as a culture, do we do this? Everyone is ...
