An anthology of authorless, numbered passages drawn from the history of literature (prose fiction, poem, play, journal, proverb, etc.) that move through day and season with careful and elegant transition. Like a mixtape, this anthology forges surprising connections by theme and juxtaposition. E.g.,

37. Philip Larkin's poem "Absences" (1950), about rain stopping
38. a medical textbook from 2017 describes the rainbow in a cross-section of gut fascia
39. the selection from the masque of classical gods in Act IV of The Tempest, by Shakespeare, with Iris and Ceres discussing the rainbow
40. a passage from The Pillow Book of Sei Shonagon on the situation after a typhoon
41. a three-page visual poem by Ian Hamilton Finlay called "Breezy Day"

Clever, even ingenious. I'd read about half of the three hundred entries before (more or less) and was familiar with a good many more without recognizing them.

A really enjoyable, leisurely read. Bedside shelf material.
