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.

The best lack all conviction, while the worst are full of passionate intensity.
W. B. YeatsThe Second Coming · 1919

In 1938 this day opens on Jean-Paul Sartre.

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