If you've read The History of Love, you'll recall the story about the age of glass, where everyone believed a part of himself to be extremely fragile.

Pretty sure I've mentioned before my obsession with People magazine, and one of my favorite things they do are those "books you should read for [insert whatever season it is]" features. It isn't so much reading the reviews of the books, but I love the picture that accompanies the whole thing...it will have all the books stacked.
