  • Foot on the Ground, French Country Saying

  • Cooking Without Milton

    …there’d be none of it. Nor would the army’s airborne leap. Nor could the sensuous love-lorn, half-starved for what they lacked, hot-headed or cherubic, lapse into complacency — it’s true. Six hundred words, or maybe more, first unfurled their syllables to readers (jubilant, ungenerous, or dismissive) of Milton’s adamantine verse. And no such reader’s jubilance, […]
