“The sight of human affairs deserves admiration and pity. And he is
not insensible who pays them the undemonstrative tribute of a
sigh which is not a sob, and of a smile that is not a grin.”
Joseph Conrad
You recently recommended the novel Mink River, by Brian Doyle. On a whim I bought it and gave it as a surprise to my wife, who’s an avid reader. I haven’t read it yet but she LOVES it. So….good work.
