Last Saturday we weathered the snow to go to Tate Modern to watch John Baldessari. For once I have to say – I walked out of that place not really understanding what the hell John Baldessari was all about. Sorry arty guys not everything I see I like. DH says that art is sometimes educative and not entertaining or informative. Whatever! I just feel bad that we spent money to watch that work.
Finished reading Bitter Sweets by Roopa Farooki. Let me say this - it didn’t tickle my grey cells; yet another story of a generation of sub-continent family trying to find their footing in the UK. I am so over that genre. But what did grab my attention was The Professor and The Housekeeper by Yoko Ogawa – fantastic book about a housekeeper taking care of a professor who has loses his memory every 80 minutes and the profound influence of the professor on her son and her. Beautiful read I tell you and the chapters have such a great flow to it. Never a boring second.
