Another round of October

Finished another Elizabeth Bowen novel last night, The Last September. It was earlier than The House in Paris, and it shows. You can see Bowen working on her deliniations of the characters, but they aren't as sharp as the ones in subsequent books. It ends rather precipitously, although she did give the reader fair warning on what was to come.
Nice day eventually, after a climbing work out with my long time climbing partner, whom I really haven't seen much of since we went up to Squamish at the end of August. We had a good time.
Got my mom out late afternoon for her longer walk, and I was in short sleeves.
Starting a third Bowen novel, entitled The Death of the Heart.
