A short little peep for now

Hello everybody!! Having a fine weekend? I want to put some effort into a post for my newest literary obsession, but for now let me just show you how much of him I have on my kindle


There's more than that actually as one or two don't have his name in the title. I'd like my definitive post about RMR to be detailed with a bit more knowledge than I do now, with who the translators were, and how many pages each volume has, and video documentaries, there is one really good one with this guy doing readings who has short curly hair and he's sitting at a desk with an open book on it and he reads so perfectly, but looks kinda cheesy. It made me think how i'd be up for DVDs or Blu-rays of just expert readers reading books and you watch them read, so that not like in an audiobook, you can see how the reader's face remains composed and intelligently immersed into the material being read.

I'm listening to Vivaldi's Four Seasons as I glide through the sonorous and melancholic lyric and prose of this guy, learning for one thing that Lou Andreas-Salome was kind of a meanie towards him. She was headstrong, a fierce woman in the 19th and early 20th century, forging a way for herself, not letting "men" slow her down. and there's this brilliant poet who's smitten with her and is aided in his craft by her, so even though she could be a meanie it brought out the best in him, the art that is, not so much happiness and creature comforts.

Take care y'all .....:)
