Oh...oh ... it was on March 10th that Dante found out that he would be burnt at the stake if he ever returned to his home city. I'm listening to Paradisio in the car and pottering through the Clive James translation, but somehow I did not know this about Dante, how awfully sad.

On Feb 4 Betty Friedan was born in 1921 and died in 2006, and on Feb 5 Jonathan Coe found himself writing on what would have been BS Johnson's 70th birthday, about the writer's suicide. Not much about writers I know on Feb 6, this is a US-centric book...
