Feb 2018

finished Hans Falluda's book, Every Man Dies Alone, which has taken me many weeks to complete. It is 500+ pages, which is much longer than what I normally read, but it is well worth the time spent. So many scenes mirror those of our current "situation" that I nearly got sick and, though the ending isn't pretty, it was expected. Hans Falluda is an awesome writer and I would encourage others to seek out his work. It's a bit dated, but so is history!

Thanks, hermetic, for keeping us together every week. Big hearts to you
