I've gone friends-only not because I want to, but because my job wants me to. So, comment and get friended for a look inside if you like.
What I'm reading/have read since 2006:
And, what I listen to:
"I think we ought to read only the kind of books that wound and stab us. If the book we are reading doesn't wake us up with a blow on the head, what are we reading it for? ...we need the books that affect us like a disaster, that grieve us deeply, like the death of someone we loved more than ourselves, like being banished into forests far from everyone, like a suicide. A book must be the axe for the frozen sea inside us."
--Franz Kafka
