Tag 105 - Cleaned up

Diterbitkeun: 17.02.2018

Very liberating! As far as I'm concerned, the 'library' in the project is only a third of what it used to be. The books are now in five large boxes, separated by English and Spanish ones, and further categorized into 'Good' and 'At most, for gifting'. The fifth box is 'Definitely trash'. I wonder if Keeley shares my radical opinion.

About two-thirds of the books are in English. It seems that an American donor once raided a public library, as the borrowing slips are still stuck inside the covers.

Penultimate evening of the grand poetry festival. Every night, there have been short readings by authors from all over the world. Recently, a poet from Taiwan recited ... yes, a Taiwanese poem. In between, he whispered into the microphone in a very peculiar way. I was sooo looking forward to the Spanish translation. I can't really remember, just that it was meaningless nonsense. Nevertheless, I enjoyed it, a funny language, this Taiwanese.

Humidity 67%, gusty wind from the east, partly cloudy at 30 degrees.
