The Metamorphosis

I’m rereading Kafka’s The Metamorphosis for the first time in years. For some reason, as I read I find the voice in my head enunciating each word in the same lugubrious, matter-of-fact Welsh accent as John Cale’s as he narrates The Gift on The Velvet Underground’s second album, White Light/White Heat. Can’t stop myself.

About

I’ve been writing this blog for quite a lot longer than three years and now I’m finally getting round to writing something in the About page. But what to write? Oh well, if you check the category listings you’ll see what I cover. It’s a ragtag assortment of bits and bobs, anything that catches my fancy really. Unsurprisingly, much of that is music. I much appreciate comments, but whether you feel like making them or not, I hope you find something of interest.
