Perfectly happy
Listening to Michael Silverblatt interviewing Anne Carson about tragedy. Having discovered a seventeen-year online archive of audio files of Bookworm, his interview show.
Which could be something like 400 hours of recordings, assuming some time off for vacations. Or seventeen days of interviews.
It isn't as cheerful as his usual interviews, but they've attained a kind of equal focus and gravity, and the interview has as astounding weight, as though it were spoken in some heavier material than air, some more substantial wave than sound.

There is something about old recordings

Re: There is something about old recordings
Do you remember any bit of the cummings? (Sort of a morning-after question really)(sorry, sorry, tired)
What a perfect moment, there in the car. Was it raining?
I hope you weren't late.
If Saturday is your only day off, would you rather meet at the Market and exchange, rather than have to show up to yet another appointment?

I think it was threatening to rain. We'd just had poutine at Alzu's. Other sensory input was pretty much gone by the wayside.
