    • ビギナー女性と「ピンかパー」

      友人が競馬場に連れて行ってくれて以来、競馬にハマり気味で、先程も同居人と宝塚記念の予想を楽しんでいた。 まだまだ怖くて100円の複勝しか買えない。でも、宝塚記念はG1なのだから、馬券を買った馬がG1ホースになるかもしれないのだから、ここは単勝を買った方が楽しいんじゃないの？と神が言っている。 神とは、「競馬はギャンブルだ」とビギナー女性にこっそり真実を教えてくれたベテラン横山典弘ジョッキーだ（UMAJO Webサイト参照）。なんて親切なオッチャンなんや、と思ったので神と呼んで

        • 不自由な言語で文章を書く

          英文を書き始めてしばらく。 何回書いても「これ、英語でなんていうんだ？」に出会い、自由に書けるようになるまではまだまだかかるなあ…などとぼんやり考えている。 しかし、使い慣れない言語で文章を書いているという行為だけで、私のような言語オタクは興奮する。 書きたい気持ちがあるのに言葉が分からず書けない無力感がすごい。ネイティブじゃないのでこの単語で合ってるのか分からないまま使うスリルがすごい。辞書に背中を預けている。例文は各単語につき100個ずつ載せてくれないと不安で仕方がない。

          注目の作家さんメモ：藤澤ゆきさん

          六本木の文喫でたまたま見かけた作家さん。古着に箔押しで表情をつける。 布＋箔は分かりやすい、思いつきやすいアイデアのように感じるけれど、藤澤さんの手練れ感というか、配置や重ねのセンスは物凄いと感じる。箔自体は不透明なのに、まるで水彩絵具で布に描いているような透明感がある。 展示品のワンピース（画像右）が買えないかよく見てみたが非売だった残念。 青い服の一つの答えだと思ったのに残念（何回も言う）。 オンラインストアを開設しておりトートバッグなどが手頃な値段で買える。応援したい。
