« Come in here, dear boy, have a cigar | Main | It's a bird—no, it's a bird—wait, it's— »

My wife fell in love last night

Last night my wife fell in love with another man.

We went to see Umberto Eco reading and in conversation with Jay Parini last night at the 92nd Street Y. Laura was enraptured. Eco is a very charming, self-effacing, funny fellow—and the Italian accent probably doesn't hurt—all of which masks an incredibly sharp and subtle mind. Heck, I was spellbound myself. I'm feeling a strange compulsion today to rush out and buy semiotics texts.

Can't wait to read Baudolino.
