A kind of prequel to the amazing 𝘛𝘩𝘦𝘳𝘦 𝘛𝘩𝘦𝘳𝘦, I'll be interested to see how he translates his sharp & savvy 21st century styles to the 19th century. Sounds like it, too, will be worth a podcast episode, maybe this week!

Views from the marginalized, this month. Erdrich is always a pleasure, and looking forward to Blackhawk's history along with my first book by Rankine!

@bookstodon I just reviewed WANDERING STARS, by Tommy Orange, and it blew my mind! I've selected it as one of my favorite books of 2024. My full review: https://www.goodreads.com/review/show/5872885938 #WanderingStars #TommyOrange

Did you why the number 7 is so important in human culture?

Ancient observers noticed that seven heavenly objects (the Moon, Mercury, Venus, the Sun, Mars, Jupiter, and Saturn) moved at different paces in the sky both from each other and from the fixed stars beyond them.

Those #WanderingStars formed the first deities in many cultures.

Did you know that the #Planets were originally thought to be #WanderingStars?

Five wandering stars - #Mercury, #Venus, #Mars, #Jupiter, and #Saturn - were known to the ancients. To the unaided eye, these planets appear starlike. However, the planets moved differently and were called wandering stars. Our word "planet" comes from the Greek word #planetes, meaning "wanderer."
