3 Women + 1 Man + 0 Hyperlinks = My Commentary

________________________________________________________________________________________________

The 3 women are
Flannery O'Conner,
Natalia Ginzburg,
and 
Margaret Atwood.

They are
—indisputably—
three of the greatest writers
to ever put
pen to paper.

The 1 man is 
Louis Armstrong.
 
Any serious discussion
about the history
and beatitudes
of music
must include
the man also known as
"Satchmo."
 
One of his most famous songs
is
—indisputably—
What A Wonderful World
 
I love it as much as
anyone else does
but when I read
the written words of
the three women
named on this page,
I do not want to be
within 
ten miles of
What A Wonderful World

  1. Zero hyperlinks but I couldn't help but notice the copyright symbol.

  2. I presume you're presently reading one of these three authors.

    1. You presume correctly:
      I am reading Atwood's novel, Alias, Grace
      about a murderess from the middle
      of the 19th Century
