He was a Canadian author of short stories and vignettes...I recommend him highly. He was hysterical! I think he died in the forties. I remember going to see his house in Orilla, Ontario when I was a teenager. It was amazing.<br />One of my favourite modern authors is David Sedaris. I have all his books and every one of them is really funny. <br />I also love Alastair MacCleod, Oscar Wilde and Ann-Marie MacDonald...there are so many authors that have spoken to me it's hard to narrow it down.<br />This Stephen Leacock quote really speaks to me,"I am a great believer in luck, and I find the harder I work, the more I have of it."<br /><br />E.

I recently finished Lone Wolf and have now moved on to House Rules – two very diverse subjects but both beautiful in their own way.<br />Mr. Twain is certainly pointing at your skirt, but I’m sure he would never be so rude as to laugh at a lady's choice of clothing. :) It’s a very nice skirt by the way. <br />Happy Saturday. x<br />Barbarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05962552429792516213noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3364621833086146525.post-24199348750355255082014-09-06T04:57:25.532-07:002014-09-06T04:57:25.532-07:00Good morning!

Many people pass by, move on...but thank you.<br /><br />Just last night, my husband and I were enjoying some Mark Twain. It is stunning to feel the WIT of an author long gone, and feel as if you are joking around with a friend, sitting right next to you. Lately for me, Seamus Heaney has been my reading crush; the man's world of Irish life speaks to me. I do not have a drop of Irish blood in me, but somehow, his visuals are so clear about humanity as a whole. <br /><br />What would we do without the written word, or even oral tradition? We are history, novels, poetry in the flesh. <br /><br />Enjoy a great read this weekend!
