WALKING SHAMEFULLY, PLACIDLY, AT OTHERS' SUGGESTION


Well here’s a thing.  Amazon, in all its algorithmic wisdom, sends me a reading suggesting:



Yes, I suppose that if I were looking for something in their Travel and Holiday Books store, then I just possibly might be interested in buying a copy of my own book, The Lost Art of Walking.  Then again, I could perhaps just walk across the yard to the shed of shame (per Michael Moorcock) and pick out a copy so I could re-read it “placidly, a quiet smile playing about my lips”  (per S.J. Perelman) .

Or not.
