With a bitter sweet appreciation for my recently departed home, I thoroughly enjoyed wandering with you through several of these favorite places of mine as well. Although you didn't mention the fantastic bakery new the Pt Reyes Book Store, I hope you enjoyed some delicious tastes. The gift of a well-traveled life is to be able to carry our travels with us, even as we lament the distance and joys left behind.

I have found Yiyun Li’s fiction pieces in The New Yorker affecting, and need to get to her novels. My recent bookstore purchase is Termush by Sven Holm about how a community copes after an apocalyptic event. It was featured in a display on literature in translation. I don’t know anything about it, but look forward to the discovery.

I'd love to hear what you think about An Apprenticeship. I haven't got to it yet myself, but I've heard it described as 'an accessible love story', which from Clarice Lispector doesn't quite compute 😂
