I am very sad to say, David Lodge died on January 1st.
He was a wonderful man and hugely influential writer.
I was lucky to be his agent and he taught me so much.
His campus novels will be read for years to come.
A great loss.

I am also in Japan for the first time and utterly blown away by the ease, efficiency, and coverage of the public transportation! Inexpensive too!

I donโ€™t really believe in the pathetic fallacy, because, you know, itโ€™s a fallacy, but itโ€™s hard not to interpret the dense fog this morning along those lines.
