Never Enough 2022, part 2
This is the second half of last year’s year-end wrap-up. It’s taken me more than a week to pull together all the links to stuff I did last year, not because there was so much but because my dad fell in September and broke his pelvis. He was too fragile for surgery, so they kept him in the hospital for two months so he could heal and get physical therapy. That was the easy part. Things have been mo

| Wow, is this a long albeit beautifully written book. The Audible version takes over 17 hours to listen to. The text is repetitive and recursive, going over the same character development again and again, inching forward each time. This is a case wher ...more | |

| I read this book in a gulp while waiting in an airport for a delayed plane. It was a perfect page turner. In retrospect, there were things I was disappointed by: when the main character ceased to be the center of her own story, for instance. But whil ...more | |

| This was the book I needed to read as my dad faces the end of his life. Medicine brought him miracles over the 30-year course of his illness, but we are past the reach of miracles now. I've known for a long time that he didn't want to die in a hospit ...more | |
“Curiosity is the single most important attribute with which humans are born. More than a simple desire to discover or know things, curiosity is a powerful tool, like a scalpel or a searchlight. Curiosity changes us. It is also a way to effect change, perhaps even on a global level.”

“For these beings, fall is ever the normal season, the only weather, there be no choice beyond. Where do they come from? The dust. Where do they go? The grave. Does blood stir their veins? No: the night wind. What ticks in their head? The worm. What speaks from their mouth? The toad. What sees from their eye? The snake. What hears with their ear? The abyss between the stars. They sift the human storm for souls, eat flesh of reason, fill tombs with sinners. They frenzy forth....Such are the autumn people.”
