Resurrection Walk
One professor insisted that almost any instance of performance was literature. A TV show could be literature. As an English Professor, of course Great Literature was literary, but then, so was any compelling story. As such, my take on much of Michael Connelly’s volume of work is now tainted by the excellent Bosch and various Lincoln Lawyer series.
Think those are on Prime, not sure.
“TV” taints the experience, and in part, I owe Titus Welliver’s performance as sealing it up for me. I didn’t take to Season One, but enjoyed every bit of it since. So there’s that.
Resurrection Walk
Enjoyable book.
Death
Θάνατος ἀνάπαυλα αἰσθητικῆς ἀντιτυπίας καὶ ὁρμητικῆς νευροσπαστίας καὶ διανοητικῆς διεξόδου καὶ τῆς πρὸς τὴν σάρκα λειτουργίας.
- “Death is a release from the impressions of sense, and from impulses that make us their puppets, from the vagaries of the mind, and the hard service of the flesh.”
Book 6
- “Death. The end of sense-perception, of being controlled by our emotions, of mental activity, of enslavement to our bodies.”
“Death Is a Cessation from the Impression of the Senses, the tyranny of the passions, the errors of the mind, and the servitude of the body.” (VI)
