The Monday Morning Memo

BeagleRed61Ferrari

My goal is to convince the auctioneer to let me sit in this car.

It’s a 1961 Ferrari GT Drogo that will be auctioned September 26 in Berlin. The bidding will start north of half a million dollars and there’s no telling where it will end. Did you know you could buy a Ferrari 250 GTO for around $20,000 before 1970? The one below sold for $34,650,000 (plus a buyer’s premium) in 2014. I’ll keep you posted on the Drogo. But right now I’m going to talk to that auctioneer. – Indy

Random Quote:

“In Ceremony, for example, there is a scene in which a spurned woman is dancing very angrily. Miles away, the man who betrayed her is checking the commotion his cattle are making in the night. Descriptions of the woman’s heels stamping the floor are alternated with descriptions of the cattle trampling the man to death, back and forth from one to the other. No assertion of causality is made, but the dancer’s heels and the animals’ hooves become linked so powerfully that the reader doesn’t just ‘get it.’ What’s conveyed is not a symbol or a metaphor, but the reality that a woman can be so angry that when she dances, her lover dies.”

- Bruce Holland Rogers, describing Magical Realism in literature
