Postcard from #Montréal.

Bixis under the snow.

I rode my own winter bike to work. Rough sledding, with few of the streets plowed.

And 20 cm on Nov. 11 is a bit much, ‘stie!

Happy birthday to the late Italo Calvino! An author who fearlessly braved the frontiers of imagination. #booksky
Remembering Italo Calvino on his birthday 🎂

"Architect of scrupulously imagined, apparently fantastic, insidiously plausible words, Calvino occupies a literary space somewhere east of Jorge Luis Borges & west of Vladimir Nabokov."
