Desire binds us.
I read Flaubert's Madame Bovary in prison. Better late than never; it was part of my educational program.
Read it. Why? Do women still get bored with their husbands?
People still desire like Madame Bovary, and desire still fails us.
The short podcast, Madame Bovary and the problem of desire (Engelsberg Ideas), makes this clear.

What a mess of things! Journals from 2010 and onward until today (still not got all the old ones on - yet). Stuff that just interests me - writing, books, music, politics. Yes, another old white guy shooting his mouth off - but trying to show what he has learned and hoping it can be fun for you. Enjoy. Learn. It is all your choice how to use this blog, but it is meant to have a use. The day we stop learning is the day we die.
