Many shotgun houses in the South ought to be national landmarks. In fact they ought to put the area around Helena, Arkansas under a bubble and just move everybody out. I picked up Kriwaczek's book last fall, and am now just getting around to reading it. Funny in small doses...

I came across a good review this morning in the Sunday NYT of "Overture", by Yael Goldstein, ISBN 10: 0385517815 or ISBN 13: 978-0385517812. It is a novel about a violinist and her daughter. I just now ordered it from my local bookstore.

Now, time for ZZZ. We had terrible storms all night, and the thunder-and-lightening show was louder than Shosti 8. Even the cats were under the bed.

Oh yes, my home town of Louisville is full of shotgun houses, which I always admired for their nifty design. There are few shotgun houses here in B'ham, but this city isn't very old. Anything that has any architectural interest at all has been ripped down for more parking lots.

Thank you for the Sevcik Op. 3 suggestion. I will take some time to look at it today. And it is nice to see someone else from Georgia on the forum.
