G’DAY WORLD PODCAST 183 - On Marcel Proust and Henry Miller
A short one tonight, talking about some new books I received today. If you don’t know anything about Marcel Proust or Henry Miller, here’s your chance to get yourself educated. I know some of you rely on me to bring you up to speed in the world, so tonight I help you round out your literary world view.
Oh and I announce a new G’Day World promotion - the blog that sends me the most referrals in the month of January will get a $50 Amazon voucher. But you have to register, so I know you are trying. Please use the contact form below with the subject text “Amazon promotion”.

I don’t think I have a chance of winning your competition. The only time that I get enough traffic to my blog for it to be worth a shot is immediately after you’ve linked to me.
After a week of no internet in sydney and the accompanying blog/podcast withdrawals it was good to have several hours of G’day world at my disposal. Good stuff!

yeah didn’t get one out last night, the family got home. I knew you’d be giving me shit about it today!

Only because you asked me too. You blamed me for doing that on Friday when I didn’t.

Haha, “Tropic of Cancer” was the book for which Jerry got harassed by Mr Bookman in Seinfeld - George loaned it out under Jerry’s name in high school, then Jerry got pursued 15 years later.
