Hmm. As I'll soon have a new apartment to furnish (assuming I finally find one - sorry, I'll spare you that rant), I am intrigued:
"The Count of Monte Cristo poster is created using the first 17 chapters of the book."
Had no idea. Now to find out more about it:
"This was the movie that broke the back of the blacklist."
It's important to know the history of print if you're going to predict its future:
"But I'm hoping that one of this things this post might do is to serve as a larger space for discussion and feedback about how, exactly, we should teach this history of print media in a digital age."
Think you take yourself too seriously? It could always be worse:
"If you're a competent English speaker, you chose 'a'. That is because use of language entails understanding not only how sounds, words and grammar work, but also social convention, appropriateness, shared background knowledge and culture all contribute to the use of language."
Why it's worth revisiting old books:
"I picked up 'Hackers' after a long gap when I heard that O'Reilly was acquiring the rights. It is the Epilogue that strikes me most this time around, and now one can see the interview with Stallman not as a nostalgic wrapping-up of times gone by but as an announcement of a new movement soon to play a dominant role in society."
Put bookselling superstars together and watch what happens:
"But the real excitement of the weekend was a visit from Prairie Lights buyer Paul Ingram and his wife Ellen."
