Comment on “The Playwright’s Dilemma” by Sean

A day later… I stumbled across this article by Saul Bellow, which is a sort of response to Terry Teachout’s commentary about the decline of bookishness in society.

Here’s an interesting quote from Bellow on being a proponent of a strong literary culture in our world:

“I hope we are not like those humane do-gooders who, when the horse was vanishing, still donated troughs in City Hall Square for thirsty nags.”

Comment on I Hope They Have Granola Bars in Ecuador by Leeann Minogue

I’m so sad to tell you this: One day my mom caught my Grandma Jean burning some photos. It turned out that they were photos your grandfather had brought back from Ecuador. Grandma Jean told my mom “Nobody would be interested in that.”

My husband and I took a vacation in Ecaudor 4 winters ago. We didn’t stop in Riobamba (overnights in Alausi and Banos instead, between Cuenca and Quito). Great food. Great people. Beautiful place. Have fun finding your roots.
