This is two cover versions of The Divorce, by the brilliant Cesar Aira. This book is genius. Am very proud to have written the introduction. And the translation, by Chris Andrews, equally transporting. I give it several hundred stars.

This is the first coffee of the new year. The first book. Some celebratory debris and last nights lone sake poured from a sake small barrel sent from my friend Ace in Japan. So, good wishes for resilience and renewed resolve. The city streets are empty. I feel optimistic.
