The Wife: Finnish Art
When Joan Castleman lands in Helsinki, she is unsure what to make of the Finnish climate and lifestyle. It seems to me that there is something cool, peaceful, and magical about the Nordic-inspired.
Maneaters: El Matador
Let me be clear about this: I do not condone bullfighting. I think it is a cruel, barbaric,and unnecessary sport. I fully support PETA’s campaign in Europe to end it.
I am, however, fascinated by the grace and glamour of the matador and can understand how Manet and Hemingway were inspired by them.
