since you say you read my blogs here's one just for you
second hand book hunt! always very fun especially with a side of ice cream hauls: People's Co-Op Bookstore The Elements of Style (Third Edition) by William Strunk Jr. and E.B. White $2 Troilus and Criseyde by Chaucer $4 Elephant Garden Creamery Vietnamese Coffee $6 wonder when I'll get around to both of them? lately, I've started to gain an itching interest to read some books on writing and as a classic and a rather thin book, the elements of style seems to be the perfect introduction. thanks for the recommendation! And trorilus and criseyde! ever since hearing Jerry Root going on about it in his lectures on Lewis as one of the most beautiful things he's read, I've always been very very interested in getting into it myself. thankfully this is a translated edition so I do hope I can finally get around it. also to respond to a previous conversation on the translator we had early today, apparently the guy, nevill coghill, was actually an inkling! no wonder his name sounded familiar, I had the wrong idea at first though. The wikipedia page is actually purple on my search browser, seems I had read up on him in the past. what a good find though! something connected to the inklings always makes me happy :)
