Charles Taylor is back at it: bagging on Lane, tossing off enthralingly contrarian sentiments ("nothing that is not pleasurable has a right to be considered art") and praising the literary criticism of Nick Hornby. My favorite line -- not least because it confirms my own undilligent habits:
"The surest way to spot a nonreader: someone who comes into your house, looks at your books and asks, "Have you read all these?'"

Yet another reason why I should live in Chicago:
"WES ANDERSON ROCKS, a concert on Wednesday, the 15th of December at the Metro featuring The Autumn Defense playing songs from Wes Anderson movies, as well as an original mini-set. Show starts at 8:30."
Ah, to hear John Stirratt break into "Oh, Yoko." Heaven? No, Illinois.
