Oh, sweet internet!


En hjemmeside med lister over de 5 bedste bøger inden for, mere eller mindre, alle emner:
http://fivebooks.com/

En samling af de 50 bedste forfatter-mod-forfatter-tilsvininger. Et eksempel:

Tom Wolfe's A Man in Full, according to Norman Mailer (1998)

The book has gas and runs out of gas, fills up again, goes dry. It is a 742-page work that reads as if it is fifteen hundred pages long....
At certain points, reading the work can even be said to resemble the act of making love to a three-hundred pound woman. Once she gets on top, it's over. Fall in love, or be asphyxiated. So you read and you grab and you even find delight in some of these mounds of material. Yet all the while you resist -- how you resist! -- letting three hundred pounds take you over.

Et essay om Ezra Pound, som jo fremførte første Canto i sidste udgave af Tekstur:

Og endelig et aktuelt essay i Information om melankoli og depression. Vi kom dog først med "nyheden"!
