Rejoicing
Since yesterday, a copy of Bruce Chatwin's The Songlines makes part again of my touchable bibliography. The pleasure of rereading it is immense, and Michael Nyman's Film music 1980-2001 (also a result from yesterday's beauty-hunt) is accompanying it superbly. Pity I cannot quote the whole immensity of quotes and notes Chatwin collected (around 150 pages of the book) that you might think are pointless. Pity I cannot play Nyman's music that you might not like. So all there is left for me is to rejoice. And rejoicing I am! Wonderful spiral that rejoicing is, such an happy madness...
