How Heavy Metal Is Keeping Us Sane - The Atlantic

This is a great article about Heavy Metal. Very well done and fascinating. The author definitely gets to the bottom the the "purpose" or "thought" behind the genre.

Philip K. Dick: A 'plastic' paradox - latimes.com

Philip K. Dick is an interesting writer. I've read quite a few of his novels, but can't say I'm a huge fan. But, he did lead an interesting life and wrote some of the most creative novels of all time. I guess his creativity is what I value most from his work.

The Iliad and what it can still tell us about war Books The Guardian

This is an amazing write-up of the Iliad. Even if you don't feel like reading the whole book it is well worth the time to read. It touches on the feel of the story and takes me back to the first time I read it.

Why do people gush over Proust? I'd rather visit a demented relative Germaine Greer Culture The Guardian

I love this articel by Germaine Greer. I too have failed to grasp the greatness of Proust. I've tried to read the first book many times, and even tried to listen to it on the Naxos audiobook. Nothing works. I tend to forget the point of what I'm reading by the time I get to the end, something that is compounded listening to it in audiobook form. I think many of the people who claim to love Proust are fibbing or have never read it at all.
