I slept an hour later than I wished, but i slept quite well - and warmly - last night. I dreamed I was reviewing a book about two of the earliest novels, Apuleius' The Golden Ass and Petronius' Satyricon, particuarly their main centrepieces, "Cupid and Psyche" and "Trimalchio's dinner party."
There were books I'd read nearly fifty years ago when I was a Classics major in college. In Sept. 2002, I saw Mark Rylance and the Globe perform a wonderful. circus-y dramatization of The Golden Ass, but I have no idea what dreged this out of my subconscious last night.
