been cataloging my serious books, which may give a misleading idea of my holdings.) Among the books you intend to read, I commend Murasaki Shikibu; I have enjoyed both the Waley and Seidensticker translations of the Tale of Genji. I have a more recent one I have not read yet.

paintings, which are very interesting. I especially like the fourth one: http://www.interkit.com.br/anaolinto/pages/04-6074.html I see that you like poetry by Emily Dickenson.
I live in New England, in the United States, which is where she lived. I see you have Madame Bovary. I enjoyed that
book very much. I read it, while listening to audio tapes, and so I heard the nice pronunciation of the interesting vocabulary in the book. I see you have George Eliot's journals; I did not know there were journals available. It must be quite interesting to read what she wrote. I have television, but do not watch very often. I prefer books, music, and to walk in the woods. Sincerely, Alison ( apbthoreau )

These days, I rarely locate someone who has literary and aesthetic tastes that are as close to mine as are yours. Indeed, rarely do I locate someone who also considers the Wallace Stevens's longer poems to be pleasurable experiences. I've not yet discarded my televisions; however, as the years pass, and as the pages turn, television viewing absorbs fewer and fewer of my weekly leisure hours.
