His peculiar gift:

a magnetic needle blindly recording invisible storms.   Isabel Fargo Cole

Gurnah:  winner of the Nobel Prize in Literature!  so we guess Ghosh is soon . . . 

Friday the 10th

better part of the afternoon reading Amitav Ghosh's Ghost-Eye.  Missing Handke and Stifter, but this is something amazing.  Dozing too.  Intense headache in the morning.  Colin and Bela played the piano.  Now up to page 111 where Shoma and Husna are in the fish market preparing to fix fish to serve to Varsha. Laced into this story thread have been a number of other stories, cannot keep the family and frienship relationships clear, don't suppose you are supposed to, at least not in the Western realistic fiction way.
