Quotation of the Day for October 8, 2010



"I've spent an entire week without reading any books or talking about them too loudly. I'm learning to worship my new apparat's screen, the colorful pulsing mosaic of it, the fact that it knows every last stinking detail about the world, whereas my books only know the minds of their authors."

- Gary Shteyngart, in his new novel Super Sad True Love Story, a satire on the near future of the United States. [In the novel, an apparat is a smartphone on steroids. -ed.]
