Reading


I wish there were an easier way to update the sidebar. I imagine there is. But for now I'm stuck with editing the template which I don't enjoy so I don't do it very often. Still, these two books are worth noting. Things Fall Apart is my bookclub's current choice and the community reading project for Cornell and Ithaca. Birdsong, by Don Stap, is a great study of "our enduring fascination with birdsong, from ancient pictographs and early Greek soothsayers, who knew that bird calls represented the voices of the gods, to the story of Mozart's pet starling." (from the dustcover)
