Foxing at the Edges - The Literary Pretensions of an Aging Bibliophile (Paperback)


This is a life--how can it be avoided-in the business of making money and supporting a family, and the primacy of that family, and therefore a life about airports, and airport lobbies, and delays. This is the story of trying to make that otherwise wasted time worthwhile in itself. This is a book about the art of reading and that of the related, but not identical, art of writing. It is quiet book about alternatives, about the way things get done and how they don't, and about redemption. It is about choices, in the first instance by the various authors whose work is considered, and finally by those made by the author.
