Alfred Jarry Bio



I haven't had a chance to properly flip through it let alone read it, but I didn't want to go too long without mentioning this bio of Patron Saint Alfred Jarry by Patron Saint Alastair Brotchie of Atlas Press.

(Currently in the middle of: Death Comes for the Archbishop, Rameau's Nephew, and A Voice Through A Cloud...the last book way too overwhelming to read in bed, I learned last night.)

Unurthed




I've been happily digging through the archives of the wide-ranging art blog Unurthed.

This is a Basohli painting ca. 1700. For very different Basohli paintings see this recent 50 Watts post.
