- Thu, 15:01: Interview with the Vampire, by Anne Rice This book really is the most utter tosh. I can see how it fits in the literary genealogy linking Bram Stoker and Buffy, but Stoker is less pretentious and Buffy is much funnier. #nwbooks https://t.co/iyGKsmYyhM https://t.co/UfJi6SNzWX https://t.co/ztOs2sIOYx
- Thu, 15:07: RT @bagatsen: @nwbrux Gah! And I thought that Germany was not doing well with the roll-out… Yes, waiting a bit seems wise.
- Thu, 15:30: Troilus and Cressida, by William Shakespeare Cressida is one of the great Shakespeare women. Bonks Troilus senseless (no qualms re marriage vows); upset when sent to the Greek camp, but banters successfully once there. #nwbooks https://t.co/ojqtWdSLi1 https://t.co/TS13X1cjFa https://t.co/hiEW6wEaf0
- Thu, 16:01: Proust and the Squid, by Maryanne Wolf Maryanne Wolf 28th Jan, 2012 at 12:18 PM earthsea A very readable book about how acquiring the skill of reading actually changes the way the human brain works. #nwbooks https://t.co/7VxFqYzHss https://t.co/IdIRjMJvds https://t.co/ZlxShGyE68

- Thu, 16:09: Very insightful from Ivan Krastev on Serbia/Kosovo @CrisisGroup : “I think both sides would be less uncomfortable with comparison to the China/Taiwan situation than to the East/West Germany situation.”
- Thu, 16:30: Indian Summer, by Alex von Tunzelmann A very readable account of the British withdrawal from India, largely from the point of view of Dickie and Edwina Mountbatten, whose papers are used extensively. #nwbooks https://t.co/ZpukREi2wL https://t.co/3LfA7zwqY0 https://t.co/lL6QkCnEYk
- Thu, 17:00: Do Elephants Ever Forget?, by Guy Campbell A nice little book of scientific trivia for the younger reader. It’s interesting to note that nobody has yet discovered why yawns are so contagious. #nwbooks https://t.co/rwGBb9yFI2 https://t.co/pXI1cfDcsd https://t.co/UCmLginYIO
- Thu, 17:30: Quoth the Raven, by Jane Haddam A campus mystery, where the traditionally low stakes of academic politics have escalated to murder. The mystery is carefully laid out and worked through. #nwbooks https://t.co/m9yil8mBt1 https://t.co/PciYXcHzYQ https://t.co/QKvPZpKMQE

- Thu, 18:00: The White Tiger, by Aravind Adiga A vivid account of an India where the old ways are breaking down, and new money and urbanisation are creating their own rules. #nwbooks https://t.co/YO2CkDxcTx https://t.co/Sv8j2sLKDJ https://t.co/lhDDrooZj7
