The Guardian is running an article, "Wagner - public genius with a private passion for bustles, bows and bodices", which uncovers a previously unpublished letter penned by Richard Wagner to a Milan house-of-style, reiterating the previous suspicions that Wagner had an obsessive interest in feminine clothing and, "an extremely detailed, if not fetishistic, interest in the minutiae of ladies' apparel, " and that "Wagner may have exhibited cross-dressing tendencies." omg i'm lolling over here like you can't even believe. The letter was published today for the first time in the premiere edition of The Wagner Journal, a new periodical further delving into the exciting life of everyone's favorite neckbeareded anti-Semite.
Next up: Garrison Keillor shares his impressions of an idyllic afternoon at the movie theater, in an article titled, "Heaven is Renée Fleming's Bare Shoulder" where he took-in the live HD Eugene Onegin from February 24, 2007. He shares his colorful musings (as only he can), waxing poetic about Renée Fleming's "erotic" bare left shoulder. And then there's this description of Gergiev: "The conductor, Valery Gergiev, looked like a Wisconsin dairy farmer who just woke up and had a beer for breakfast."
