A passing gloom

Life through a veil of dratted gloom, despite having no good reason for it, and everyone being nice. I read Ryszard Kapuściński's book The Cobra's Heart in the Penguin Great Journeys series which I enjoyed. His travels in Sub-Saharan Africa and observations on Idi Amin among others. Now started on Marco Polo's The Customs of the Kingdoms of India. Hope tomorrow presses the refresh button.
