"The essayist is a self-liberated man, sustained by the childish belief that everything he thinks about, everything that happens to him, is of general interest." -E.B. White, in the Foreword to his collection "Essays"

Carte Postale
I bought this au marché brocante (at the antique market), a sprawling mess of tables which pops up in Place Gutenberg on Saturday mornings. I've been so tempted to buy glass ostriches, elaborate silverware sets, accordions, and almost-medieval candelabras. So far I’ve only purchased post cards, which are perhaps more easily transported.
(Just to clarify : this is our cathedral! The tallest building in Europe until the middle of the 19th century.)
