#booksky #Virgil If you've never read the Aeneid I'd highly recommend this prose translation. It manages to preserve many of the poetic images & tells the story in an easy to read way.

A new prose translation of Virgil's Aeneid. Cover shows a circle divided into quadrants resembling a shield, depicting a Trojan warrior, a ship, Cupid, & the Wooden Horse of Troy.

This one is in my local park. It's a copy of the Farnese statue made in the 18th century and restored in 2004. In the hand behind his back he's holding the golden apples from the garden of Hesperides. As teenagers we used to joke that they were actually parts of his anatomy missing from the statue.

This might sound pedantic, but it’s actually called Rowley’s House. Rowley’s Mansion is the brick building adjoining at the rear.

Following on from the Emerson quote, this is worth a read.

Cover of Chris Ryan's book 'Civilized to Death'. Cover illustration shows a harassed looking chimp in a jacket sitting at a table with a large burger while she/he is looking at a phone, probably doomscrolling.

'The first and most important thing an individual can do is to become an individual again, decontrol himself, train himself as to what is going on and win back as much independent ground for himself as possible.' William S Burroughs. #BookSky #readbannedbooks

The US postal service issued a commemorative stamp of Ursula LeGuin after her passing. It shows a scene from 'Left Hand of Darkness'.

'The Left Hand of Darkness' is IMO a work of genius. Another of her early Sci-Fi novels I like a lot is 'City of Illusions'. Here's my current reading, also a couple on the kindle.

This must be one of the best & the strangest novels of a dystopian future I have read. #BookSky #readbannedbooks
