“A bad word from a colleague can darken a whole day. We need encouragement a lot more than we admit, even to ourselves.”
Orson Welles, letter to Peter Bogdanovich, c. 1968-72

I’m shutting down the shop until Sunday night, and so far as I know Our Girl won’t be posting until then, either (though I’ll be delighted if she does).
If you’re around on Friday, be sure to buy a Wall Street Journal and look up my review of Wonderful Town, which will run in that day’s “Weekend Journal” section. I can’t tell you what it says, but I promise it’ll be worth reading.
In the meantime, have a happy Thanksgiving. We’ll see you next week.
