Books 16-19 recombobulated. Amazingly good. These little books verge on that category where you're mad at people for not having run up and smacked you unconscious with them so that you wake up later with just the book on your face and no explanation and therefore need to read it.
All Day Permanent Red was a phrase from a Revlon ad btw.
So many Logue lines you just go, "Fuck yes." Some:
Those who have slept with sorrow in their hearts
Know all too well how short but sweet
The instant of their coming-to can be:
The heart is strong, as if it never sorrowed;
The mind's dear clarity intact; and then,
The vast, unhappy stone from yesterday
Rolls down these vital units to the bottom of oneself.
Nothing needs saying about that, but he's so right how though the guts are on the way the bottom of the self is not the feet.
