This edition seems to have been expurgated of all the good bits. Barely erotic but occasionally interesting for adventure (prison break), fine dining, and snarky salon society banter with Voltaire and other Enlightenment intellectuals. https://slackersmuse.com/posts/br_woodyguthriesongsandartwordsandwisdom/ Mon, 29 Sep 2025 00:00:00 +0000 https://slackersmuse.com/posts/br_woodyguthriesongsandartwordsandwisdom/ A Review: Woody Guthrie: Songs and Art * Words and Wisdom Title of Work: Woody Guthrie: Songs and Art * Words and Wisdom Author: Robert Santelli Format: Published: Started: Finished: 2025-09-29\ Posted: Goodreads Rating: 5/5 Wow… wow wow wow. I’m obsessed with this book – the cartoons and the paintings and the songs and the stories and Woody Guthrie, the man himself. Everything we consume makes us different somehow as it passes through, but it’s usually hard to notice. https://slackersmuse.com/posts/br_thediaryofanasninvol119311934/ Fri, 26 Sep 2025 00:00:00 +0000 https://slackersmuse.com/posts/br_thediaryofanasninvol119311934/ A Review: The Diary of Anaïs Nin, Vol. 1: 1931-1934 Title of Work: The Diary of Anaïs Nin, Vol. 1: 1931-1934 Author: Anaïs Nin Format: Published: Started: Finished: 2025-09-26\ Posted: Goodreads Rating: 4/5 Nin is a great writer and hung around some interesting, influential artists and innovators in her time. She kept a beautiful, narrative diary through most of her life, starting when she was a young girl. Highly self-aware, reflective, sensitive.
