1. Because I’m one of those sickos who likes to read critical material about books I just finished, I was looking at reviews of and interviews around SMALL RAIN by @garthgreenwell.bsky.social, which is an incredible book that I can't recommend strongly enough.
2. Reading it was supposed to be a distraction from my current book project, which is, in part, a defense of non-instrumental ways of being. Coincidentally (and a little annoyingly since I was trying to avoid the subject), Greenwell is extraordinarily eloquent of the subject.
