I read #Walden 3 times this year. Still so relevant to today. Brain rot is nothing new.
While England endeavors to cure the potato-rot, will not any endeavor to cure the brain-rot, which prevails so much more widely and fatally?

Love this ad in St Paul on an optometry office. Someone full-on committed to the lit bit. "So we beat on, boats against the current, borne back ceaselessly into the past."

I love the book, This Side of Paradise.
I loved it as a teenager, and I adore it now. Dear Amory Blaine is an insufferable little personage. But he is detailed with such self-awareness. That’s what we love.

In 1935, Sinclair Lewis, the first American to win the Nobel Prize in Literature, published It Can’t Happen Here, a cautionary tale of how a fascist could take over in the US.
This novel is becoming increasingly relevant day by day. Have a listen here: youtu.be/QsL6A-gUhP8

Officially on sale! This examination of one of 19th century America’s most famous female writers is written by my father, with cover illustration by me. Hard cover is not cheap, so maybe wait for paperback.
