This week was full of noteworthy “sightings.”
If reading can be considered “seeing,” and I think it can, then I’d like to mention My Ántonia by Willa Cather. The writing’s superb and the descriptions and plotting make me wish I could write so well. The same’s true for Anthony Powell‘s A Dance to the Music of Time. How he describes social situations and how we size up the people around us. Excellent! Both books are showing me how to write.
I also saw Joyful Noise, but while the music was good, the story needed work. Rather hackneyed.
On Thursday I delighted in watching the snow accumulate.
