Pointless Digressions

Tuesday, June 7, 2011

June 7: This date in 1945, Malcolm Lowry's shack on the Dollarton flats burned down. Gone in the blaze: the fourth draft of "Under the Volcano."

LYNDON GROVE: Pointless Digressions is the on-line extension of a radio series commissioned sometime in the last century by the Vancouver radio station AM-1040 (now Team 1040, an all-sports broadcaster). The mini-programs were written and voiced by Lyndon Grove, whose ambition, he said, was "to digress my way through life." Grove describes himself as "a media Gypsy," having spent vast amounts of time in radio, television, newspapers, magazines, advertising, public relations, film and live performance. Pointless Digressions is his self-help therapy project. For detailed biography, send self-addressed stamped envelope stuffed with wads of cash.
