"The Lovers"

First I thought this was some sort of a recreation [a.k.a. Photoshop...]. Now it seems like it isn't. Well, wow. Apparently "The Lovers" really were found in a bin at the Hasanlu archaeological site in Iran. Article from the Penn Museum blog here.

The History of Love

Recently I randomly came across one of these quotation ecards that fly around the web, and the quotation somehow got into me enough to do a search and find the book that it came out of. It's called "The History of Love", by Nicole Krauss. I got me the ebook, and the 260 pages took me about a month to read [which is the time in which I usually read about 10 times that amount!]. I suppose you could say I meditated on each page. I think this is one of the greatest non sci-fi books I've ever read. Probably will read it again after some time. =) More info here.
