"Attempting to read this because of its significance in Diana Wynne Jones’s “Fire and Hemlock.” It’s kind of rough going so far, but the descriptions in tonight’s reading of a wide variety of superstitions around the world did get me thinking—how wonderful to be able to rely on an almighty God for food, safety, etc., instead of a host of “magical” rituals and taboos!" — Apr 10, 2025 10:11PM

"Reading these a few at a time—they take some chewing on! Favorites so far have been “Supposed Confessions of a Second-rate Sensitive Mind” (gorgeous “wrestling with God” poem in the midst of grief and turmoil) and “Mariana” (deliciously eerie, and with some early hints of ideas later explored more fully in “The Lady of Shalott”)." — Apr 09, 2025 07:19PM

“The Road goes ever on and on
Down from the door where it began.
Now far ahead the Road has gone,
And I must follow, if I can,
Pursuing it with eager feet,
Until it joins some larger way
Where many paths and errands meet.
And whither then? I cannot say”
― The Fellowship of the Ring
