Story of My Life

The most recent issue of The New Yorker (June 9, 2008), The Fiction Issue, has a cover that just about broke my heart... another of those great Tomine covers, but this one... well, long-time readers of Miss Edith's commentaries will understand what she means...



Miss Edith has spent a great deal of money at Amazon.com, but... not on books. The largest purchases I have made through Amazon, just for the record, are that of a new vacuum cleaner, and of a number of boxes of Borax and Arm and Hammer washing soda.

I know you needed to know that.
