Incapable of listening to any more Trump news while I took my daily hour walk to the East River with earbuds in last night around 6:00, I tuned-in Bookworm a podcast from KCRW in San Francisco hosted by the singular Michael Silverblatt. He's a great reader and an enthusiast for books and writers that grab him. The show I listened to last evening had on Richard Powers who won the most recent Pulitzer Prize for his novel The Overstory. It's about trees. In a special way of course. It seemed a book I should read. I stopped at the Strand bookstore at the end of my walk and bought it in paperback. From the first few pages I read when I got home, I see what all the praise is about.
