Techstination, your destination for gadgets and gear. Iām Fred Fishkin. More Techstination recommended summer readingā¦this time from The Atlantic staff writer James Parker. He is out with a collection of odes titled Get Me Through the Next Five Minutes. Itās the kind of book you can pick up and read bit by bit at any time. But you may be tempted as I wasā¦to just keep on going. The odes are that entertainingā¦from the Ode to Electricity , to Ode to Naps, to Ode to Squirrels, Parkerās observations are fun and often thought provokingā¦ and he invites readers to write odes of their own..
āIf you trust your own perceptions. I think thatās really important. And look after it. And then, I think, this stuff will come at you and youāll find yourself able to write about it in a different way than you imagined.ā
One can only hope. The title again.. Odes to Being Alive. Get Me Through the Next Five Minutes.
