Claudia Emerson's book...
...Late Wife arrived yesterday. Amazon seems to ship this particular title out of a site in New Castle Delaware so that means if you order it from them today you can probably immerse yourself in her 
wonderfully reflective work by Thursday of next week or maybe even Wednesday if the Gods are smiling on you.
I don't care if you have read it; you should own it.
So run, do not walk to your keyboard and go to www.amazon.com and order a copy for yourself and 5 or 6 more for gifts.
Ooops, you're already at your keyboard aren't you... my bad...sorry.
If this note seems a bit heavy handed on the sales side, it could have been worse; I could have made the address for Amazon a direct link but that would have been a bit tasteless, tacky and commercial, don't you think.
Oh, and in case you miss the point, this is really good stuff.






Jim: No problem here if you had been more heavy handed with the sales aspect of your note. Claudia Emerson's work is spare, evocative, and deep. I can't find enough words to describe well what her prose does for (to) me. Thank you for highlighting Claudia's work. ~ Ruth
