A few minor observations

Karin does not have COVID-19.

On the other hand, we figured out that next year, my health insurance will cost another $200 every month.

I’ve been going on long walks with the boy. Today’s walk was a little cold, a little misty. Samuel slept in his stroller.

Earlier, visiting his great-grandparents, he’d had plenty of excitment.

Homecomings is this month’s book by C.P. Snow. It’s the seventh of the Strangers and Brothers novels. It’s only the second book to treat the narrator’s home life in any detail.

A theme of Strangers and Brothers is that character, career, and domesticity are all linked in profound and unexpected ways. I’m not sure if the narrator’s rather drastically compartmentalized presentation is an oversight by Snow or a clever, ironical reinforcement of this theme.
