Has Dylan ever guested on PHC? I mean, come on.

A new story from Hilary Mantel, “The School of English,” in the London Review of Books.

You know who I wish would drop little pearls like this? Susanna Clarke.

TAL is rerunning this February 2001 episode. It makes me a little nostalgic for pre 9-11. I have clear memories of it on initial airing because it was the first time I had ever heard Chris Ware’s voice.

UPDATE: This episode also features the never-directly named Zora Colakovic story. Few years after this a couple friends started telling a story about attending a friend’s wingding in Southern California and I think the friend they were visiting was Zora. I always forget to ask them if I’m right.
