Art is a jealous mistress, and if a man have a genius for painting, poetry, music, architecture, or philosophy, he makes a bad husband and an ill provider.

- Déjà Vu Is history repeating itself? The Déjà Vu blog investigates... Stunt Doubles — A publicity stunt may have caused the crash of the Costa Concordia, and in 1926 a candy company wounds its intended audience. A Vision of Infinite Space — In 4th century China, the heavens were empty of substance, but the 21st century government has again committed to a space program. Cry Me A River — The people of North Korea mourn their leader passionately and violently, much like the mourners of Ancient Greece.
- Roundtable Insight and analysis from renowned writers and thinkers. The Patron Saint of Dark Days — The shortest day of the year can drive anyone a little crazy, including Vincent Van Gogh. Predicting Their Own Demise — We can say what we want about the future of reading, but perhaps we ought to let the novel speak for itself. The Zombie Apocalypse of Daniel Defoe — “A Journal of the Plague Year” might not technically chronicle an undead armageddon, but all the elements of the now popular genre are alive and well.
