henna day post

[gwynnega]

It is Henna Day, and the henna is on my head--which is a bit cold, considering we're in the midst of a massive rainstorm. Bleh.

This weekend I have been working on the Jo book and a couple of poems. I finished reading Shedding by Verena Stefan (mid-1970s German feminist manifesto/novel) and started a biography of Tillie Olsen, which is marvelously researched but marred by the author's apparent and bizarre contempt for her subject.

I don't get it either. Possibly the author grew tired of her subject as time went on? Anyway it definitely makes the book a less enjoyable read than it would've been.
