Love it!
I didn't know you could sing too! But hey, where's your chin rest! You'll be great at our jams and meet a lot of other folks to sing and play with.
Super impressed.
Best

Hi Bruce, glad you came by!

I found your blog via Edge of the West, which I read regularly. I was intrigued by your comments there, because you are smart and funny, and because I am also from Modesto. (Modesto, California, that is.) Your blog is great! I'm happy I found it.

Thanks, Rosmar! Glad you came by. Do you still live in Modesto? I moved away many years ago but some of my family members (parents, aunt and uncle, grandmother) live there.

posted morning of June 16th, 2008 by Jeremy

Nope, I don't live there anymore. I moved to the Bay Area (Oakland, more specifically) to go to graduate school at UC Berkeley, and then 3 years ago got a job teaching in North Carolina, which is where I am now. But all of my family still lives in Modesto (or nearby, like Riverbank or Turlock).

Hi Jeremy!

I dropped by while looking for some bibliography on Orhan Pamuk and I found the most thorough one. Thank you very much!

You have a very interesting blog indeed. I'm afraid mine is only an Italian-speaking one, but I'm linking yours anyway.

Happy New Year, by the way!

Thanks, Marina, happy New Year to you! This year I am trying to learn Spanish, maybe next year I'll have a go at Italian!

I just discovered your site yesterday (Bells of Rhymney). What a pleasure to "hear" people discussing books. I live in Southern California, so such talk is a treat for me. Since you're reading the "His Dark Materials," trilogy, go back to Milton. I just finished the edition of Paradise Lost for which Pullman wrote the commentary. Brilliant. What a ripping good yarn. God bless, M.

Glad to see you around, Maggie! Interesting -- I was just reading a note about how His Dark Materials is written with reference to Milton. Maybe I'll take a look at that soon; though I doubt whether Sylvia would be interested in it...

Nice, may the light be with you

This is a good blog, find it very useful since I am currently preparing a thesis on English literature using My Name is Red. I have a question I'd like you to give opinion on: What do you think if I use the qualifications of "style & signature", "time", and "blindness & memory" as some kind of variables in order to determine the conflict within the book, seen from Butterfly, Stork, and Olive's point of view?

I'll soon start posting a blog, but until then, you can let me know your opinion on the question above to an e-mail address, lambofgodage@hotmail.com. Thank you for the respond.

posted morning of February 27th, 2009 by Handy

Hi Handy, sure, that seems like a good approach -- each of the illuminators certainly has a distinct voice and style. I don't remember noticing a difference in their approaches to time, blindness, and memory, but if you notice such a difference it would absolutely make a good basis for analyzing the novel.

Great project with the translation!

Hey, TMK, I finally found your blog. I left a msg. on that live journal site, because I was not sure, if it was you. You are not on TGW as much. Well, I'm glad I get to read your blog now.

I love it! I was hoping you can help me on my assignment. I am studying "The Black Book", and I'm kind of having trouble with figuring out exactly what the plot and theme of the story is. . .if you can help me with this, I would really really really appreciate it. Thanks.

posted evening of January 17th by Mechelle

Hi Mechelle, well take a look at my posts on that book -- I hope you will find them useful. Good luck with the assignment!

posted evening of January 17th by Jeremy

I did, and they are helping me alot, but I'm still unsure about the theme and plot.
