Lori's Book Nook. An important day in publishing history. For your reading pleasure…. To read aloud…. On: December 17, 2006. This bit of Anglo-Saxon pleasure from Earle Birney needs to be read aloud.

Points out when he writes about his task. Wow…a lot of ‘ado’ before I get to the poem for today. I wish there was a link!

https://loricat.wordpress.com/robertson-davies
Lori's Book Nook. It’s come to my attention that we need a space to discuss Robertson Davies’ work. I’m a Canadian, with a book-related blog, so the onus seems to be on me. So, we’ll start informally here, with sub-pages to this one. First book discussion is here: The Fifth Business. It is the first in a the The Deptford Trilogy. Series — and if you read the first, you should read them all. I think it’s time we also chatted about The Cornish Trilogy. But the others are, of course, just as wonderful!
