Melanie (her real name), a former inmate of the Palace and a valued friend (she loved to listen to me playing Byrd and Purcell), was found stabbed and beaten to death in an alley this morning a block and a half from here. I used to call her my "Good Fairy."
The View from the Quai Voltaire

About Me
- Name: anatole
- Location: honolulu, hawaii, United States
I burn hot. I tend to exhaust people in conversation, like Margaret Fuller did Carlyle. Which leaves me (but apparently not Margaret) always wishing I'd shut up sooner. I have quite a few friends and not many enemies, but I'm very proud of the few I do have. There is consensus among my friends about me, which is how I know to write about myself. What my enemies think of me I have no idea. That, of course, could be dangerous. The list of interests and favorites is absurdly partial and half-assed, particularly as to music and books. It's the stupid format of the blog itself, as given, that, of course, I color outside the lines and burst the seams of.
