Notably: The Great Eastern steamship, one of the most hubristic creations of its day (it was too big to keep floating profitably) on this day laid an undersea cable in newfoundland, Canada, establishing transatlantic communications between the Americas and Europe. Less known: Jules Verne sailed on the Great Eastern the following year, going to New York, then hopping trains to Niagara and back for a very brief trip of one week before sailing back home, what his biographer Herbert Lottman called “his curiously unrigorous trip.” One of his big surprises: uncensored newspapers in New York City. Albany did not impress him anymore than it impresses Albany residents to this day. This genius of the cross-planetary adventure novel, too often and inaccurately termed sci-fi, was really a homebody at heart. He did not like to travel. But his trip on the Great Eastern resulted in one of his lesser known novels, A Floating City (Une ville flottante), a poor novel as Verne novels go (if also the very first of his I ever year, as a 10 year old, so it will always have that place), more travelogue than drama, but still rich in flourishes, as when he observes the arrogance of American imperiousness: “‘At the beginning,’ he said,” quoting an American on board, “‘God created America in six days, then took rest the seventh.’ With that, I headed for the door.” But the book strongly suggests that Verne did not get the United States, though several of his novels were situated here (including North Against South, his novel of the Civl War, with scenes up and down the St. Johns River.)




Now this: If you’ve not heard anything by Argentine composer Teresa Carreño, it’s time you should, though this isn;t the best interpretation. She’s not being performed or recorded enough. From the liner notes to one of those rare albums (Alexandra Oehler’s 1999 CD on the Ars Musici label): “At the age of thirteen she was presented to the great Franz Liszt in the presence of the promising young pianist Camille SaintSaens. Liszt was so impressed by her playing that the last note had scarcely died away when he laid his hand on her brow almost in a gesture of benediction and said: “My dear little Teresita, God has surely given you the greatest gift of all, that of genius. Work, develop your talents, but above all stay true to yourself, and in time you will be one of us …”

This is a vital question. Why, in our current delirium of faith and fear, would Bush want things to become more theological rather than less theological? The answer is clear enough, in human terms: to put it crudely, it makes him feel easier about being intellectually null. He wants geopolitics to be less about the intellect, and more about gut instincts and beliefs–because he knows he’s got them.

–From Martin Amis, The Second Plane (2008).

    Literally anyone that isn’t named Donald Trump could oust Biden easily in 2024. Let’s be real here.
