My copy of the Stand showed up yesterday. So far my Stephen King book count is at three. Might start Insomnia after IT because it's another Derry, Maine story

R.A.W. is a creative genius.. I'm mixed on audiobooks. Do it for commutes on books I'm prob not gonna read. Almost 100% of the time the voiceovers annoy me to distraction over the actual story |

Heard Temple Of the Jaguar was good lordk...!
Read The Stand every summer for about 5 years now...my pool copy is all wrinkled to hell and is about twice the size of the original..lol. I wish they could make a really good movie version of more of his stuff...Shawshank and Green Mile and Stand By Me were good...the rest suuuuck.

Onto Hag-Seed by Margaret Atwood. Reinterpretation of The Tempest. Really like it so far.
I played Stephano in HS

Happy Belated Bloomsday!
Me and the missus went to a reading. There's a local group that does a program every year. It's always great. they are creative with the sharing of lines and dialogue and give a great visual background: primarily rolling the text by as its spoken, but still displayed cleverly and creatively.
(for the less nerdy or otherwise uninitiated, this is Joyce talk).

It's always great. they are creative with the sharing of lines and dialogue and give a great visual background: primarily rolling the text by as its spoken, but still displayed cleverly and creatively. (for the less nerdy or otherwise uninitiated, this is Joyce talk). "Coffined thoughts around me, in mummycases, embalmed in spice of words. Thoth, god of libraries, a birdgod, moonycrowned. And I heard the voice of that Egyptian highpriest. In painted chambers loaded with tilebooks. They are still. Once quick in the brains of men. Still: but an itch of death is in them, to tell me in my ear a maudlin tale, urge me to wreak their will." |

Here's a good one..
"Shakespeare is the happy hunting ground of all minds that have lost their balance."
Flann O'Brien is a peer of Joyce worth checking out

Finished Hillbilly Elegy tonight. Nothing groundbreaking but goodish none the less.
