...is a weblog about the liberal arts 2.0 edited by Jason Kottke since March 1998 (archives). You can read about me and kottke.org here. If you've got questions, concerns, or interesting links, send them along.
things magazine reviews Mark Danielewski's new book, Only Revolutions. I quite liked Danielewski's House of Leaves, which House things describes as "a combination of the Winchester Mystery House and the Tardis".
So, House of Leaves is a book about a book about a book about a movie that doesn't exist. Or something like that. Post-modern fiction at its best (or worst if you're not a big fan). I would *love* to see this book -- or the movie it describes -- made into a movie, but I can't think of any particular director who would do it justice.
The best way to get a sense of what kottke.org is all about is to head to the front page or check out some random entries from the archives.
