Saturday Links Round-up
Jul. 30th, 2022 09:39 pmThe world continues to be in a shambles, but I’ve got a long weekend. Here are a few lighter things to read/look at:
Project Gutenberg has at least two anthologies of ghost-stories by Mary Wilkins Freeman (1852-1930). I say ghost-stories, but some of them depict clearly supernatural events, some imply a psychological explanation, while others ambiguous and don’t lean either way. All of them can be described as “New England Domestic Realism, and also there are/might be ghosts involved.”
Vivaldi on marimbas.
For those who’ve never seen it, as well as those who haven’t in a long time: Wayne and Shuster’s “Rinse the Blood Off My Toga” (1950s CBC version, with intro).
And while we’re talking about Big Julie: The Molossian & the Vertragus (non-explicit) Asterix/Julius Caesar slashfic by ansketil.
