Hendrick Avercamp, Winter Landscape, 1610, Rijksmuseum<\/p><\/div>\n

A quiet evening spent looking out at the wintery landscape here in Brooklyn while spending time online, nomadically moving from one site to another, finally reading Le Monde’s<\/strong><\/em> political pages, then its book section keeping Pierre Assouline’s blog La r\u00e9publique des livres<\/a> for last, which in turn led me to a strange and marvelous blog the last post of which opened with the Avercamp winter landscape reproduced above. The bloggiste en question<\/em> is someone named\u00a0 S\u00e9bastien Chevalier. The blog is called “Norwich<\/a>” and speaks of, it says, “Du temps et des lieux, chez W. G. Sebald et quelques autres,” i.e. “the times and places of W.G. Sebald and some others.”\u00a0 Quite a find \u2014 & if you have any interest in Sebald & have some French, & like maps and strange visuals and Borgesian travel, check it out!<\/p>\n

The day before yesterday \u2014 i.e. New Year’s Day \u2014 we\u00a0 (Miles, Nicole & I) took part in the 36th St Marks Poetry Project marathon reading \u2014 with Nicole also working the foodline by cooking cr\u00eapes for some 4 hours. Much fun was had \u2014 some excellent, excellent readings & performances, a lot of good talk with old friends & new acquaintances. I can’t resist to send you to Nicole’s Collectages<\/a> blog, where you can watch the video of her and Miles’ performance, and read up on the previous night’s debaucheries\u00a0 in K-town’s\u00a0 Soju bars. Enjoy.<\/p>\n
