I don't often read fiction, but this looks interesting and has great reviews. Thank you for the recommendation.

Love this quote:

Traduttore, traditore: An act of translation is always an act of betrayal.

I do not enjoy fiction much anymore. Mostly non-fiction, biography, instructional, gardening, beekeeping. This is my latest…

A wise decision. Regarding the new book, how do you like it so far?

Very much. Highly technical, repetitive, but generally thought-provoking. I will compose a synopsis later. It may be worth your time/energy. I do so enjoy your #vanlife notes, so I know you’re hella busy with that outfit.

Wonderful. I look forward to reading your synopsis. I'm glad you are enjoying the content. And thank you. I am :)
