There are frost warnings not 75 miles north of us.\u00a0 Frost.\u00a0 On Memorial Day.\u00a0 OMG.<\/p>\n
Kate came home after a busy holiday clinic, today and yesterday were both very busy.\u00a0 I cooked walleye, pasta with morels I found in our woods with a sauce Kate made earlier\u00a0and asparagus.\u00a0 We ate it while watching Passage to India.\u00a0 This is an old movie, so you probably saw it long before I did, but it’s a stunner visually.\u00a0 David Lean and Merchant Ivory, goes without saying.\u00a0 The plot worked well in exposing the basic contradictions in the colonial exploitation of India by the British Raj.\u00a0 The major plot point, however, an incident in the caves of Marabara still eludes me.\u00a0<\/p>\n
It seems that Adela, played by Judy Davis, awakened to her sensuality while visiting a Hindu temple in ruins.\u00a0 It seems further that her on again\/off again marriage to the City Magistrate created a level of cognitive dissonance with this awakened sensuality.\u00a0\u00a0 It all\u00a0came to a head when she fled a wonderful day organized by a Muslim doctor.\u00a0 She made an accusation of attempted rape, or, was manipulated into making one.\u00a0 Then she recanted.\u00a0 Puzzling.<\/p>\n
Kate’s off to bed.\u00a0 I plan to finish Lush Life by Richard Price tonight.\u00a0 A wonderful novel in many ways, though it is so thick in its content that I become weary of it and need a rest.\u00a0 It is a tour de force of urban conflict, parsed out on the shockwaves of a brutal murder on the lower east side.\u00a0 If you want to read a genuine American voice on a quintessential American topic, I recommend it.<\/p>\n
No writing by me yesterday or today on Superior Wolf.\u00a0 In a bit of a general funk, the dream surfacing some of it.\u00a0 Not sure where it’s going, doesn’t seem so oppressive tonight.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
