From King Lear: FRANCE Beautiful Cordelia, you?re all the richer now that you?re poor. You?re more valuable now that you?re rejected and more loved now that you?re hated. I?ll take you and your wonderful virtues here and now, if it?s okay that I?m picking up what others have thrown away. It?s so strange that in neglecting you so cruelly, the gods have made me love you so dearly.?King, the daughter you?ve rejected is now mine, as Queen of France. No Duke of spineless Burgundy can take this treasure of a girl from me now.?Say goodbye to them, Cordelia, even though they?ve been unkind to you. You?ll find a much better place in France than what you?re giving up here.

Oh yeah, I forgot to mention right now I'm reading a book called "Three Bags Full". It's a translation of a German book about a bunch of Irish sheep solving the murder of their Shepard. Lead sleuth is--ready?--Miss Maple. Yeah. Actually it's quite entertaining. It's by Leonie Swann. Anyone heard of her?

Our library has a fund raiser approximately once a year ... As many books as you can fit into a good size shopping bag ....($5.00) I put some in there that I don't know if they are good or not .... for the total of $5.00 for the whole bag .... it is worth the risk And I did judge some books by the cover I have read a few and enjoyed them .... and yes there are "Name recognizable authors"

Two new contemporary poetry books by Norwegian writers: Statsminister-boka by Einar Økland. Quite witty poems. Åstedsblomster by Torgeir Rebolledo Pedersen. Yet to read it, I'm not through with the other yet but the ones I've looked at was a bit nostalgic and reflective. Both writing with a creative use of language and musicality. And craftsmanship. If I was only half as good myself...

Different Every Time - The Authorised Biography of Robert Wyatt by Marcus O'Dair. I think Brian Eno sums up quite well on the back why I am a fan and one of his admirers: 'English music has produced some fascinating personalities, but few are as unusual as Robert Wyatt. This excellent book captures his gentle, generous and intelligent personality, and is incidentally a very good history of the music scene in England from the 1960s onwards.' NME say it like this: 'If you don't believe avant-garde political music can be both playful and polemical, heartfelt and heartbreaking, you need Robert Wyatt in your life.'
