Currently reading and loving John Irving’s “A Widow for One Year.” I have adored John Irving since 10th grade, when I wrote a paper about the symbolism of hands in “A Prayer for Owen Meany.” I also read Anais Nin this last weekend. Yes, after three years of reading mostly magazines and online newsources, I’m getting back to books. Please don’t make fun. Instead, help the cause or recommend a book.

In other news, this is the best Metafilter thread ever. Hours of facinating links.
