the more things change

Don,

Strangely enough, I am still reading The Reformation, but like so many others got sidetracked onto national events last week. I found I couldn't cope with the detail and remove of the book, and spent a couple of days reading the more recent mystery novels of Elizabeth George. The human condition (and a pretty Augustinian view at that) in her books felt more in keeping with the tone of disaster and societal unravelling on the news.

I have plowed ahead into Chapter 8, while alternating it with a fascinating book on the Bayeux tapestry that I picked up randomly at the library. I'll try and post more tomorrow.
