Sundae Sundries: great links for readers, writers & historians

SundaeWeb

Links for writers …

How Kazuo Ishiguro wrote the award-winning Remains of the Day in only four weeks. Depressing, isn’t it?


Links for flâneurs through history …

• The French Revolution Network. It’s always a thrill to discover discussions on topics of interest.


These 16th century portraits of women painted by Caterina van Hemeseen are arresting.


• For delicious details on daily life in the 17th century, see this website.


Links for Napoleonistas …

• I’m reading Patrice Gueniffey’s Bonaparte 1769-1802: excellent.


Links for everyone … 

President Barack Obama participates in a podcast with Marc Maron in Los Angeles, Calif., June 19, 2015. (Official White House Photo by Pete Souza)


• I’m late to the party, but I’m now a big fan of Mark Maron’s WTF podcast. His interview with Barack Obama is an outstanding introduction. (It’s wonderful that Obama would venture into such edgy territory.)


Have a great week!
