Kreeft, Tolkien, Dostoyevsky, and a Driveway Alarm
Peter Kreeft: The Two Greatest Novels Ever Written:
The Wisdom of the Lord of the Rings and The Brothers Karamazov
I was yawning over my book late at night
When the driveway alarm squawked unimaginatively
In its mechanical voice, “DRIVEWAY ALERT!”
With guard-dachshund and flashlight I addressed the alert
But there was nothing, only the wind and damp
Perhaps a squirrel had triggered the alarm
Which is silly, because squirrels don’t drive
And shouldn’t be wandering around in the lane
I am yawning over my book again -
What are you reading at bedtime just now?
