Hey.  It’s Friday!

This week I read:
When I Was a Child I Read Books
By: Marilynne Robinson
Farrar, Straus and Giroux; 1st edition (March 13, 2012)
224 pages

I am not sure what to say about this book. It is written by a well-published writer, and is titled: When I Was a Child I Read Books. So, I don’t know. I thought it was going to be a book about books. Maybe something similar to Larry McMurtry’s incredibly interesting work titled: Books: A Memoir. Instead, this book meanders, with little distinct conclusion, between religion, politics, education, and economics. Or, maybe I should have read the back cover and inside flap more carefully.

One of my favorite quotes:

Say that we are a puff of warm breath in a very cold universe. By this kind of reckoning we are either immeasurably insignificant or we are incalculably precious and interesting.
