  7. So, I just finished reading DEMON COPPERHEAD by Barbara Kingsolver. It was utterly unputdownable, I got mad at my family for speaking to me while I was reading it, and when I read the final sentence and closed the book all I could say was "DAMN."

    Highly recommend, y'all. HIGHEST OF HIGHLY.

  13. Marlene Dietrich & Konstantin Paustovsky

    Just finished 'The Story of a Life' by Konstantin Paustovsky (1892-1968), Russian writer nominated 4 times for the Nobel Prize in Literature. He was of Zaporozhian, Turkish + Polish descent + raised mostly in Ukraine

    In her autobiography, Marlene Dietrich devoted an entire chapter to the author inspired by his novel 'Telegram' :
    "This novel made so great an impression on me that I could no more forget it than I could the name of the author, of whom I had never heard before"
    In 1964, Dietrich arrived in the Soviet Union on a concert tour. As soon as she got off the plane she asked about Paustovsky. Despite being ill, Paustovsky attended the performance + afterwards went up on the stage. “I was so shocked by his presence that, being unable to utter a word in Russian, I did not find any other way to express my admiration for him, except to kneel in front of him"

  18. Last night I just-one-more-chaptered myself into staying up until 2:45am to finish the book. Having gotten less than 4 hours of sleep as a result, I now find that this was both a glorious choice and an abominable one.

    Is it naptime yet?
