Been reading the book "An Old Woman's Reflections: The Life of a Blasket Island Storyteller" by Peig Sayers, recently. Peig was illiterate, and only spoke and knew Irish, called Gaelic at the time. And yet, her son's transcription of her stories and translation into English really conveys her warmth, melody, and idiom/myth phrases, in a way that with almost no other book I've read I feel not just that I know Peig, but that she knows me. I hope I can leave some sort of media that carries even just a fraction of a whisper of a murmur of that personhood and connection. I hope you hear Peig thru-in your days, too.

Was showing off the cool stuff in my room (trinkets, treasures, old records, old books, even new books) to some pals of mine. I've got a couple of nifty tote bags (ok brag!) and one is of a library card, not for a person but for a book, the recipe card that goes in the beige pocket, that one? Yeah! So I picked up what I thought was an empty toe, and it had some weight, I peeked inside, showed my friends - "a toddler's pockets!" Some lovely stones, delightful sticks, a massive pinecone, everything I might need to make a real good radio show! And here we are, pocket and tote-sized, to boot :)
