First, this blog replaces my previous blog, thecosmoplitanlawyerblogspot.com . Second, unlike that earlier blog, the present one is primarily meant as a record of my readings. It is not meant to suggest that others will be or should be interested in what I read. And third, in a sense, it is a public diary of one who is an alien in his own American culture. A person who feels at home just about anywhere, except in his birthplace . . . America.

INSPECTOR MAIGRET #37
Georges Simenon, Maigret Takes a Room (Inspector Maigret), translated from the French by Shaun Whiteside (New York: Penguin Books, 2016) ("All evening, in short, he had had a sense of being in the wrong place and even though he hadn't done anything reprehensible, he felt something like remorse in a cornier of his conscience." Id. at 6.).
