From the shelf

Nothing in the canon is tethered to February 29. One line is set aside for this year, the same line for every reader.

February 29 stays in the book in common years. The lived calendar skips it. This page does not.

If there is a book that you want to read, but it hasn’t been written yet, then you must write it.

In 1911 this day opens on Langston Hughes.

Arrow keys turn the day. S keeps the line. Slash focuses search.
