I am so excited to hate on that wildly horrible looking movie in February. A little Valentine’s treat!

Dare to Be Stupid was very very important to my intellectual and artistic formation. So, yes.

I loved both volumes, and vol. 2 goes in some (by me) unexpected directions! I am eager for vols. 3-7.

Climb Arthur’s Seat! It’s great. I love the National Portrait Gallery and the Dean Gallery (now National Galleries of Scotland: Modern Two, and go over to Modern One too). Take a day trip to Glasgow, and be sure to ride the subway and eat at Ubiquitous Chip. I’ve always liked Fishers in the City.

(I wonder whether they’ve confused it with Olga Ravn’s The Employees [which is also marvelous but differently so!]?)

I, a midwesterner, definitely grew up with and have continued living with this construction.

So you might not feel or approach it as autofiction, is what I’m saying! (His prose styling is gorgeous, too, itself worth picking up his books.)

Just heard him read in Bath tonight, and he likened his life experience to found material and used the idea of flaxseed’s presence in a finished painting (by way of being pressed into oil and made into paint) to explain the way he thinks about his life as it is transmuted into his fiction.

I have had multiple students over the years express gratitude for getting to read Aurora Leigh (which I tend to teach in full). It's unlike anything else that they read.

Yes, it’s fairly easy! I always book quiet car seat reservations. Leave yourself extra time, if you can; when I was using trains last month, there were a lot of delays. (Train companies compensate for delays, so that’s good, but it won’t help if you miss events!) Birmingham to London should be easy.
