  1. Tot i tenir una portada "exòtica", sembla que el llibre parla sobre els beneficis de la solitud i no del jardí de les delícies terrenals. ;-)

    Hugs, Sean.

  2. Hi Sean - you are well read! I've just had a look around at Henry Miller and his book the Big Sur ... interesting ... my father was a great fan of Bosch - thanks for the nod towards him and his other books - per your comment above! Cheers Hilary

    1. You are very welcome, Hilary. As for Miller, I devoured more than a dozen of his books in the late seventies. Mentioning this, Charles Bukowski and Truman Capote come to my mind.
      But before I digress completely: With a click on the label "Beers'n'Books' you can dive into a part of my library ... 409 posts so far. ;-)
