New post

 I have a new post at my new site. The subject, in case you're wondering, is the vagaries of weather rather than the vagaries of books....

Goin' viral

It seems that someone has hacked into this site. The logo is now, ah, modified. God knows what else has been monkeyed around with.

Until I figure out how to fix this problem (am still trying to wish it away), you might check out CBT's new incarnation at finnharvor.com/blog.

Wm. Blake

I'm currently working on a paper on Blake, and came across the above portrait of him by John Linnell -- an 18th C. contemporary of Blake's I'd never heard of. It's a very fine piece of work, and not the only sketch Linnell did of him. (For another of the ones I found, go here.)

It was shocking then, but remains important literature today. It is the story of a young man's journey--through the Deep South to the streets of Harlem, through events and experiences that range from tortured to macabre. As he moves through time, he learns about the black world, the white world, and a world of his own. His passage is a frightening but at the same time enlightening pilgrimage, for the Invisible Man and for all of us. (Source: Library Thing ) Author: Wells, H.
