[FRIAM] The plague

[George Duncan]

I reread The Plague two years ago for a summer workshop at United Church of
Santa Fe. It is a powerful novel simply as a literary work but is
especially powerful as an extraordinarily human response to the threat of
widespread death.  Highly recommend but particularly now.

My art theme: Dynamic exposition of the tension between matrix order and
luminous chaos.
