Kaethe's Reviews > The Naked Eye - Acting Edition

Oh, dear. Through the dark years when Putin's puppet held sway I used to head off a day of doomscrolling by reading tweets from Rudnick and looking at hourly photos of wolves, pandas, bats and the like, plus bodega cats, dog rating, spark notes, muppets. Reading this play recaptured those good moments and also, the long blonde hair beloved of Trump womenfolk that featured in many a tweetpic. By comparison the 1949 yearbook of my mother's whites-only high school was a rainbow of individuality and idiosyncracy, in which girls had the option to wear long or short hair with their cardigans and pearls. Ah, the good old days when all the women on the news looked the same on the outside, but could decide for themselves whether or not to carry a pregnancy to term.

My apologies for that unpleasant chain of thoughts. Please accept this charming book by way of apology:This Book Is Literally Just Pictures of Cute Animals That Will Make You Feel Better. Hat tip to karen for that.
