I am currently reading The Art Of Fielding. One of the many things I love is its leisurely, thoughtful pace. How tenderly and carefully every detail is observed and recorded. This could only happen if the writer was patient, and paying attention, and not running, dogs at her heels, as I have been running for much of my life.
