evelyn_bIt's busy season again! so I'm putting off talking about Last Things by C. P. Snow (poor C. P. Snow never gets his due), U is for Undertow, and the Poetry redesign. I've started It Was the Nightingale, which is book number TEN! in Henry Williamson's Chronicle of Ancient Sunlight! The ancient sunlight is being name-checked! We are in the home stretch!
Phillip Maddison, a thinly veiled autobiography, is still writing thinly-veiled autobiographies and having important thoughts, most of which are repetitive (but sometimes thoughts are just like that). He's acquired an unconvincing young wife and an exceptionally convincing baby otter.
What I'm Reading Next is a whole lot of work reading. But also A Wizard of Earthsea! which is pretty delightful, one chapter in. A young wizard-to-be accidentally learns a spell to make goats follow him around, and is pleased with himself until he realizes he doesn't know how to stop the goats following him around. This incident of the goats made me feel I was in good hands with Ursula LeGuin.
