Saturday Review of Books: August 6, 2016

“In one sense, reading is a great waste of time. In another sense, it is a great extension of time, a way for one person to live a thousand and one lives in a single lifespan, to watch the great impersonal universe at work again and again, to watch the great personal psyche spar with it, to suffer affliction and weakness and injury, to die and watch those you love die, until the very dizziness of it all becomes a source of compassion for ourselves, and our language.” ~Mary Ruefle

  1. Hoping to get more active now that my broken hip is more healed and my dad is back on his feet for a while again. I’ve also moved to a WordPress location and the new Book Chase url is bookchase1.com

    Thanks again for doing this every week.
