Omg omg this is Speak Memory, fabulated and fantasticized, in Nab’s best way. Reliving my multiple mind-trips to Biarritz in 1908 or 9, one more time!

Chapter 6 of Glory is basically a redux of my favorite chapter of Speak Memory, the train chapter, where Nab gives one of the best descriptions of riding in a train ever. Omg I love that train, the Nord Express! I’ve ridden it so many times in my mind. Also in Glory he offers some details about a stop in Berlin that is surely autobiographical. Omitted in SM because of bad German associations?

Revisiting my copy of Speak Memory despite VN's admonitions NOT to go snooping in his biography for the Original of Glory!
