months ago I began yoga. Prompted by a health scare, that’s has passed, and mild arthritis that hasn’t, I signed up for classes. The initial weeks coincided with my reading Moby Dick, and one complimented the other. Omnidirectional visions of Whale, parts and whole. Inversions, transpositions etc.

From Marshall Berman All that is Solid Melts into Air, with a gorgeous chapter on Gogol and modernity, I must read Dead Souls. From Dead Souls, keep the flame alive, I must read a Gogol bio. Turns out Nobokov wrote one of the most freewheeling lit bios ever…

Currently reading. Lincoln book keeps getting richer. Reminds me of Gogol, silly shading into horror, comic and cosmic. Safekeep is moving like a Swiss watch. Deceptively straight ahead language masks huge depth, in the best way

I got raptured yesterday, but I still have my phone, which is awesome. It’s all perfect white light here, so I can’t make reels or post pics really. Text still works obviously. Anyway, this is great but boring. if that makes sense?

Some pairing these are making, the masculine violence study, which I didn’t expect, in Topeka and its scathing critique, which totally checks out, from Woolf. Both are brilliant btw. #booksky #virginiawoolf #benlerner
