Moving Foerward

Jonathan Safran Foer, author of Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close, has penned a typically elegant and atypically-accessible piece in the NYT on...off-leash dog parks.

From explorations of post-Holocaust Europe and the nature of literature to dog parks. The jokes write themselves.

Still, it's a nice little read. I recommend.

Is Bush still in a State of Denial?

Is President Bush coming out of his “State of Denial?” The Republicans lost control of the house and senate, and was followed by the “resignation” of Rumsfeld.

 

Bob Woodward’s bestselling book, State of Denial, provides the most complete account of how and why Bush, Cheney, Rumsfeld, Rice, and others were caught in a war so different from the one they had launched and expected.

That book looks hot with your sweater

The NYT has an article today on books-as-accessories. Anthropologie and Starbucks have become defacto bookstores. Any bets on how long until we see McLibrary?
