Had promised some time ago to seek out a picture or two of Syd Summerhill"s sculpting talents. Am very happy to oblige, thanks to Madeline. . . (Click to enlarge) . . . have finished Luncheon of the Boating Party by Susan Vreeland. Fascinating. She has identified almost all the people in Renoir's famous painting and weaves their lives into the story of the picture's origins. . . . Am now deep into The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society and apparently am the only person in the world who hasn't chuckled over it. Bob was sorry when he turned the last page--it was such a delight.
