My afternoon plans were sidetracked by my eldest nephew calling to talk about his high school English homework, which *may* have involved a long digression into how much he enjoyed reading James Joyce's "Araby" and what it meant to him, and me trying not to get all weepy over the staying power of literature (and the amazing work of good teachers!).
Didn't get out the door for my pre-writing, VM-answering walk before he called, though, so... Round 2? 🙃
Right? It's just such a lovely affirmation that good things *can* be carried forward, even if so much of the world is filled with daily reminders of how much we forget and toss along the way.

@MLClark Lucky nephew!!!
@MLClark I always get weepy when young people are impacted by the power of good literature.
