new york is fun, all tremendously metropolitan. today i went to the richard serra show which is wonderful - you must go. but not on delta. 4 hours delayed, 2 hours in customs, fontano is a saint for lending me his couch. i had a bit of a balles des tetes moment in supreme today, all very sorrowful / evocative / joyous. more to follow when i am not contre le montre on the net (ie from blighty). and proust is done (alas).
