From the shelf

Nothing in the canon is tethered to August 23. One line is set aside for this year, the same line for every reader.

We shall fight on the beaches, we shall fight on the landing grounds, we shall fight in the fields and in the streets, we shall fight in the hills; we shall never surrender.

Winston ChurchillSpeech to the House of Commons · 1940

In 2008 this day opens on Elie Wiesel.

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