Sunset and pink in the sky, blackbird alarm and mist. Cold, and my phone says seven, but feels colder starting with eyes, hands, feet.

I find books are generally better than the film or TV version. Sometimes worse, for example with Mario Puzo's The Godfather. Sometimes different, and equal, for example with A Month in the Country, The Remains of the Day, and this.

"It was as though someone had switched off the wireless, and a voice that had been bawling in my ears, incessantly, fatuously, for days beyond number, had been suddenly cut short; an immense silence followed" - Brideshead Revisited (Evelyn Waugh)

"To wound the earth, he answered earnestly, is to wound yourself, and if others wound the earth, they are wounding you. The land should be left untouched: as it was in the Dreamtime when the Ancestors sang the world into existence" - Bruce Chatwin, The Songlines.

I always thought why is Steinbeck neglected? And this is my idea of camera capture and a view.

The Grapes of Wrath is one of the most powerful books I've ever read. Says 16 year old me. But I trust his instinct, and know what he felt. Don't remember if I read this, but I'm about to find out. netflix.com/gb/title/8161185…
