Sunday Salon

Well, this Sunday brings an end to a lovely summer vacation as well as a lovely week blogging about Clarel along with the intrepid Amateur Reader. He may have joked about blog sweeps weeks, but this was actually a nice little week for me, not least thanks to a mention on the Quarterly Conversation by Levi Stahl. So perhaps doing crazy things on the blog is good after all–like your parents telling you to just be yourself, haha. (Hey, Rebecca, does that count as bookrageous? LOL)

So what can possibly follow such excitement? Well, though you may not believe it was unplanned, I just finished up a very blog-appropriate, semi-literary, or at least literary-historical, trip, and this week bibliographing nicole will be unveiled doing various Melville-related (and other) things. With fun facts! (Well, fun for me at least, and thus certainly fun for all of you. Right?)

And then, Billy Budd and, if you can believe it, the end of the Melville project. Wow! What on earth can follow that up?
