A Journal of the Plague Year, Daniel Defoe, 1722
Daily Thoughts 03/19/2020
I checked the library Twitter and Facebook this morning.
We are still sheltering in place. I read most of the day and spend some time on the internet.
I read some more of The Art of Memory. Some of the writing can be dense and slow to read. It is quite esoteric at points.
I also read some more of What We Talk About When We Talk About Books. I am reading about why people mark up their books.
