Tender Buttons
Gertrude Stein
Read by Cori Samuel
"The time came when there was a birthday. Every day was no excitement and a birthday was added, it was added on Monday, this made the memory clear, this which was a speech showed the chair in the middle where there was copper.
"A kind of green a game in green and nothing flat nothing quite flat and more round, nothing a particular color strangely, nothing breaking the losing of no little piece.
"The teasing is tender and trying and thoughtful."

Thank you Cori for bringing this book to me. I confess that I needed to read the Wikipedia for it to understand what on earth was going on, I have listened several times now and it is indeed either genius or gibberish, I feel a parallel to the emperor's new clothes.
