Thomas Bernhard/Jury Duty
While serving Jury Duty today I brought along Thomas Bernhard's newly translated and published first novel "Frost."
This passage summed up my day:
"It felt as warm as in a cow's belly: the air felt as if it was being pumped from body to body with incredible pressure from some collective muscle."
The good news is I don't have to serve again for another six years.
But the best news is the novel and translation are superb.
