Dear Lance Olsen,
Happy birthday from your fans!
We love your books!
Mom uses "Architectures of Possibility" to teach. And you know her favorite novel by you is "anxious pleasures," but it's also hard, and not fair, to pick a favorite among so many wotten waven books you've written.
"Calendar of Regrets" and "Head in Flames" are missing from the bookshelf. But Mom's review of "Head in Flames" in "The Brooklyn Rail" can be read here. And our birthday wishes to you last year, when we just started the blog, can be read here. (So many links, so little time.)
Maybe the blog birthday bash should become a tradition?!
Love,
Tootsie
P.s. Hi Remedios-the-Beauty and Andi!
I confess never to have come across Lance Olsen, but now will investigate.
ReplyDeleteCheer, Gail.
PS Just followed your link to our last year's post which mentions Tibor Dery's 'Niki - The Story of a Dog', which I have read, and very much enjoyed too.
It's fantastic when you can find an author that you truly enjoy!

Happy Birthday. Hailey wants to know how the books taste. Hailey and Zaphod
ReplyDeleteOh, I will have to look this man up! I am game for a party anytime!
ReplyDeleteI wonder about the validity of Olsen's statement "But for good people to do evil things, that takes religion.”
ReplyDeleteI'm with Hailey. Books are among my favorite snacks. Mom really likes to read so she is not happy when I eat her books.
ReplyDeleteyour pal,
