I'm going to pop over and do Sunday Salon post as well. I finished reading The Care of Wooden Floors, by Will Wiles. I couldn't get into this book for quite a few pages, and then BAM (as Emeril would say). I couldn't even remember why I requested it from the library, and then Jenners commented and I remember reading her review and thought I should stretch my wings and read more books written by men, I do find a very different style in the writing. WELL I was not disappointed, I might add I missed my bus/train stop twice, (because I was reading) my very quick trip to the art supply store became an adventure in alternate routing. Good thing it wasn't dark, I hate being somewhat lost in the night, in Chinatown of all places. Suffice it to say if you are planning to renovate your house and are thinking of putting down a wood floor you must read this. I always regretted not doing so, and then I remembered I was married to handy Andy. Good decision, ceramics it is. This book has quite a view, post Communism, perfection, a little bit of British, and a whole lot of nerdy friendships and buckets of wine, oops and almost forgot the cats. For a more intensive review check out Jenners' review, she does a much better job.
