A wonderful novel by Laura Lippman has helped me get through a difficult week. I have a blood clot, not the scary kind but a small one on a superficial vein. No clue how this happened but lots of sitting with my leg up and a late night visit to the ER courtesy of my son. Am also reading OSCAR HAMMERSTEIN AND THE INVENTION OF THE AMERICAN MUSICAL and watching lots of documentaries on YOU TUBE. CRITERION has a nice list of movies this week if this thing doesn't go away. The Lippman book got my interested in Joan Mitchell so I am looking into her work.
Finished THE DIPLOMAT. She certainly makes time for romance amidst saving the world. SLOW HORSES ended well too. So too MAIGRET.
Going to see ONE BATTLE AFTER ANOTHER again. It really needs the big screen.
What about you?
