Quentin's Weeknotes 1/3/21-1/9/21

This Week:

• I came back to work! Lots to do at the Yager Museum. We are planning a number of events in January and February including livestreams of Music, Film Screenings, and (possibly) an on-line gaming event.
• I finished reading China Mieville’s “Railsea”, a weird and wonderful genre-hopping adventure, set in a desert world where endless railroads crisscross each other and people ride trains and hunt the monsters that live underneath them. I’ve read a number of Mieville’s books and this may be my favorite.
• I also read Museum Vol. 1, a gruesome crime procedural Manga by Ryousuke Tomoe.
• I finished reading The Parker Inheritance by Varian Johnson, a young adult mystery novel about segregation, love, and tennis. It deals with dark and complex history in sensitive and clear ways, and my (admittedly precocious) 7 year old liked it, and asked interesting questions along the way.
• I watched with disgust and horror as inevitable things inevitably happened. Arrest the President.
