A Mid-November Brattle Bookshop Haul

[@TheActiveMind1]

Always good to see another Brattle haul! Hope you and Freida are doing well!

[@joannaburgess825]

Glad to see you and Miss Freida! M I’m missing your daily deluge of videos

[@Unpotted]

Back to the Brattle. YES!! Thanks, Steve. 😉 😺✌️

[@BookChatWithPat8668]

That's a beautiful edition of Lives of the Poets. I also found one in hardcover at Thrift, in very good condition, but yours looks even better. Wonderful!

[@gavinmcintosh5716]

Fascinating haul. So jealous. 😊

[@DanielsBibliophagy]

Nice haul!

[@GuiltyFeat]

I have a paperback edition of those Mitford letters edited by Charlotte Mosley. Deliciously gossipy and endlessly entertaining. Hope you keeping well. Thanks as always for sharing your finds.

[@heathergregg9975]

Lives of the poets looks great, I'm pleased for you - and I'm delighted to say that I've checked and that there's a copy in a library near me - huzzah!

[@allesvergaengliche]

I just read Portrait of a Lady for the first time and was absolutely blown away. I hope you enjoy your reread.

[@Arbutus-v5m]

Miss Freida yawns when she hears Steve has been to Brattle again!

[@AaronReadABook]

I've recently bought that collection of Mitford Letters between the sisters too, definitely one for me to pick over next year.

[@StephaniePatterson-jb5it]

It’s fabulous.

[@theaelizabet]

I loved The Peabody Sisters. I should pull it off my shelves for a reread. The Lives of the Poets sounds wonderful.

Steve you don't know me but I been watching you videos for a long time but you seem ill in you last couple videos. Like you lost a loved one. Hopefully everything is well with you. If you need take a break from You Tube. When your ready your followers will be here. Take care.

Trump won the election so he's doing a performative boo-boo face for a while. Don't worry about it too much.

[@barbaratarbell606]

Portrait of a Lady by Henry James. Painting is "Reverie" by EC Tarbell 1913. Museum of Fine Arts, Boston.

[@StephaniePatterson-jb5it]

I love letters and I am especially fond any letter written by a Mitford.

[@Lokster71]

Thanks for that Steve. There's a couple of things there that I'm really interested in. My reading this month has been almost entirely focused on World War One for Remembrance Reads as you know. But I've decided next year to look very hard at re-building what passed for my Classical education. Grammar school not Eton, but I did Latin (badly) and I feel I want to go back and really dive into Ancient Greece and Rome. After all what's the point in starting a BookTube channel if you can't have fun with it.

[@konstantinos-6-6-6-8]

Always great to see you Steve! I was wondering if you have seen the UAP news (immaculate constellation and so forth), any thoughts? Are we getting closer to disclosure?

[@anneworks]

Looking forward to the next last Battle haul of 2024 ;)

[@saintdonoghue]

Again, I said the last filmed Brattle haul.

[@GrammaticusBooks]

Samuel Delany on the back of an Ace Double?! Sold!

[@Make6746hv]

I would like to recommend you to read Julius Evola, im sure you will like hip

[@justsomebunny]

You said this is your last Brattle haul for the year?! hahahaha

[@saintdonoghue]

I said this was my last filmed Brattle haul of the year.

[@DoofusForP]

Love you man. I’ve binged you through it. Though we disagree on Conrad, bellow and cormac. Hope you can get past trump and start smiling again. Share your condemnation broadly of woke destruction of education and 🎉literature. Though it’s deeper than that; through all the professions; and our kids lord. Trump was the only available imperfect solution. Respect your mind; not always your temperament. Still much love

[@saintdonoghue]

Trump is not a solution of any kind, to anything.

[@j75099]

I mostly agree. Considering all the madness and hate espoused by the left I'm only surprised President Trump didn't win more of the vote.

[@paulmorton4911]

Trump is a welcome solution to corrupt, senile, useless Biden!
