And that's the way it is.

I'm not updating this blog anymore, for the moment, though you never know when I'll appear again to regale you with the woes of Hemingway. That said, if you've come, enjoy the archives - literature is timeless, they say, and therefore, my commentary on it must have absorbed at least a little of its gravitas. I made it to number 30 on the list.

I'll leave you, also, with links to these.

My favorite book.
