Day 17
I tried to get some work done on the annotation project, but I only managed about half an hour before I stopped. And I got maybe 90 seconds annotated on a first pass.
In March or April, I requested Margaret Atwood's sequel to The Handmaid's Tale, The Testaments (2019), from the Athens library. I placed a hold on an e-copy, and I was 17th in line. As far as I know, that hold never came through. But the PG County library has about a dozen e-copies, and many were available, so I checked it out there.
It's a fitting sequel, told once again through found documentation. In 2020, reading about a secret plan to overthrow a terrible Christo-fascist government that succeeds is heartening, even if it seems woefully optimistic.
3 weeks to election day. Have you voted or made a plan to vote? Our lives depend on it.
