Reading......

I wrote nothing yesterday.
Instead, I went to Torah study at Touro, dallied over coffee with two of the students after it was over and ran errands until 5 pm.
I forced myself to rest a bit and then my eyes fell on Soldier of Sidon by Gene Wolfe. I purchased it a year ago and never read it. So, 7 pm to 2 am found me in bed reading. I got up this morning before the news to read more and I’ve just finished the book.
Loved it, even as it confused me. It’s one of those books that make you want to look up the references, but only after you finish. One chapter flows into the next with delightful surprises.
Actually, I was composing a post for yesterday before I dove into Sidon. I'll type it up and if it makes any sense, I'll post it.
