BOOKS FOR THOSE WHO LOVE EPHEMERA AND VERNACULAR PHOTOGRAPHY
NO PINTEREST
I'm not really fond of Pinterest because I find the idea of just going around the net and grabbing stuff to put on a page under your name is a bit lazy. • I have discovered that there is a woman, Diane Harris-Day, who has chosen to use my title, Tattered and Lost, for ephemera she posts. I find this irritating. • That said, I just want people to be aware that I am NOT that woman. I find it odd that she chose the title I have been using for years. It's one thing to take someone's images, it's a whole other thing to appropriate their identity.

I finished reading a book while I was in Seattle - rather, I consumed it. The title is "The Hotel at the Corner of Bitter and Sweet", and only tangentially involved a "Big Dog" as this mode of transportation was referred to by one of the characters. By Jamie Ford. Excellent book. I'm shamelessly plugging it. Cuz it's good. Also read "The Book Thief", although I do not remember the name of the author. Another winner, although I do wonder about booksellers keeping it on the shelf with a title like that.
ReplyDeleteOh yes, I read The Book Thief" a few years ago. Wonderful book!
ReplyDeleteI now have "The Hotel at the Corner of Bitter and Sweet" on my buy list. Thanks for the suggestion.

ReplyDeleteThanks Nik. Take a look through the older posts for a very strange variety of stuff. That's how best to describe it. Stuff.
