Your Weekend: A Selective Guide
Movies: The only movie I’ve seen lately that I’ve thoroughly enjoyed was the Jane Austen adaptation “Love and Friendship.” Television: Friday brings “Carol Burnett’s Favorite Sketches.” Sundays in summer have become such a wasteland that I’m watching reruns on HGTV! Music: Coltrane’s classic “A Love Supreme” is back on the charts. Also the supreme bluesman Robert Johnson. Books: My favorite new read is “Esther the Wonder Pig: Changing the World One Heart at a Time,” by Steve Jenkins, Derek Walter, and Caprice Crane. Sports: It’s a rare thing for me to be watching every game of a playoff series, but I will be with the Warriors-Cavaliers matchup. Finally: Summertime, and the living isn’t easy: it’s sweat and mosquitoes and long lines at the airport.
