Speaking of columns

[petrea_mitchell]

james_davis_nicoll starts his latest listicle for Tor thus:

I’m always looking for new works to review for Because My Tears Are Delicious To You, an ongoing series on my own website. There I revisit some of the books I loved as a teen. Recently I put out a request on social media for readers to suggest authors and works now obscure that deserve mention. To my surprise, someone suggested Arthur C. Clarke’s Tales from the White Hart.

Reader, that person was me.

I already knew my sense of what's obscure is skewed compared to most people's, but I don't think it's ever provoked an entire column before.

Well, I don't remember ever hearing about, reading, or seeing it before, and I'm 48. And I spent a whole lot of time in libraries in my first few decades. Though I'm not sure if that speaks to the book's obscurity, or to my memory not being what it used to.
