The Monday Morning Memo

Angel. Broken.

In fantasy, wings appear on faeries, sprites and pixies.
In religion, wings appear on angels, spirits and demons.
In mythology, winged creatures are messengers of the gods.
In dreams, wings represent a release of creative forces.
A character having one wing is said to be lost in dreams.

Sleeper, Lost in Dreams
by James Christensen,
the gift of Anne Farnsworth and her academy class,
Up Where the Air Is Thin

In a handmade, beaten copper frame, this angel
resides in the kitchen of Engelbrecht House,
Wizard Academy’s amazing student mansion.

Click each angel to see the entire Gallery of Broken Angels.

This pair of small plaques are displayed in a glass cabinet nearby

Random Quote:

“The air writhed in scarfs of heat… Women in open sandals and damp shorts slumped on their arms at sorting tables in airless Laundromats. People pushing carts from air-conditioned malls raising an arm to ward off the incessant light which glints from mica chips in the griddle sidewalk. Their hands jump back from the door handles of their cars. They recoil from the sting of Naugahyde upholstery and gasp for air in these broilers.

Summer in Northern Indiana, the pale light of the dog days, and smolder of towns like South Bend. We were pulling away at over a hundred.

I’d borrowed my younger brother’s car, a two-seat convertible.”

- Barry Lopez, "Speed," Ch. 16 in About This Life
