Hi Todd. Amazingly, I've actually managed to post something:
https://www.existentialennui.com/2018/07/larry-nivens-world-of-ptavvs-protector.html
Thanks, Nick. If I don't stomp my computer into rubble in a minute (Blogger is NOT cooperating), I'll have you in...it's vanished Yvette's new link twice already.
Hey Todd - Thanks for doing the FFB list today. I have a post for today, too.
Thanks, Elgin!
You probably want to fix the date in the header/title as you have it right now as APRIL 3rd. Not sure I want to go back in time.
Thanks, as always, for picking up what is on my blog. From what I read over at Patti's deal it sounds like you have next week for sure and probably the week afterwards too.
Did one this morning then saw Patti was taking a break. Here’s mine: https://kalaity.com/2018/08/03/ffb-the-comforters-by-muriel-spark/
Todd, thanks again for filling in for Patti Abbott. She and Phil are dealing with a tough situation and your help is much appreciated.
I like that Niven cover, too. Is it tied to anything here?
Rick--yes, Nick Jones's review of Niven novels.
Kevin--agreed. I think Spellchecker decided that my A-word was the wrong A-word (I might've typed a P rather than a U or G...). I suspect filling in will be about that long, indeed.
Kate--as noted, always ready for Muriel Spark.
George--thank you, and all of you. No thanks to Facebook, which voided my post there because the Nero Wolfe mapback cover Violated Community Standards.
Right, I see it now. I do not understand how the map back could violate anything. What the *U** "community standards could that be???
Bah.
So F-book lets the Russians post hundreds (at least) false political posts but disallows a book cover illustrated with a woman's face?
THANK GOD I'M NOT A MEMBER.
Double Bah.
I'm certainly not in a mood to be gracious about it. But other irritants have arisen over the course of the day to help make that the case. A wasted half hour or so of info-distribution effort just piles on.
It portrays the result of violence.
They be idiots.
Thanks for putting the list together.
Thanks for contributing!
Thanks for the link, Todd. Wow! The Choirboys by Joseph Wambaugh--that's a rave from the grave!
It is a bit of an odd feeling to realize a case can be made that influential bestsellers from one's tenth year of existence have grown obscure over the course of time...the lament of the solidly middle-aged.
Kevin, belatedly: frequently, yes.
Thanks for the link, Todd!
Not at all, Jack...thank you.
