| robert k commented on 11.30.07 | | SE one way to deal with that looming inevitability that you are feeling is to realize that actually humans define the landscape. As the quote goes 'nature knows nothing of itself.' It is the particular human element in control that is doing the defining at this present moment is what makes things depressing. |

| Sleepeasy commented on 11.30.07 | | Yours sounds like a depressing book, rk. Seeing as how most of us are defined by our landscape, how can anything ever change? Unless we migrate. And would that do anyone much good? |

| Sleepeasy commented on 11.30.07 | | I'm reading DH Lawrence's Sons & Lovers but finding it rather tedious. Considering giving it up and reading Jonathan Coe's fifth, The Closed Circle instead. |
