Lewis H. Lapham (1935 - 2024)

Writers I’ve enjoyed over the years are passing away - far too many.
Can’t say the quality and spirit that are replacing them, are of the same calibre.

Yes, he was part of the establishment.
But, I liked his style and/or writing

Back, and…
Lost the thread…
That’s the point.

Man plans.
God laughs.

If anything; just read the opening epigram concerning Allen Dulles.
Two lines that express him to a “t”[and/or, nail him to a cross].
