Resurfacing from The Corrections to the BC elections
Instead of being a good blogger and taking care of the fundit, I’ve been devoting all my spare moments to reading The Corrections, a wonderful novel by Jonathan Franzen.
It received a ton of praise when it came out in 2002 and every glowing word was so deserved. It starts out dark and hilarious, with a wonderfully odd (yet somehow familiar) family and ends with… I won’t say anymore. Go get it today.
Now back to the real world… I think I should be commmenting on the BC elections but I find the entire political system depressing. I am happy that it seems there will be a stronger opposition, I hope Adriane Carr wins her seat, and I am glad I don’t live in Vancouver-Fairview, where it would be very difficult to choose between two exciting candidates (Gregor Robertson and Virginia Greene).
