January, wringing me by the collar, has caused me to drop out of my reading plans. Which is unfortunate. But things are finally settling, which means -- books!

#NYRBWomen25 There is a connection between Weil's idea of collective passions and the more insidious function of social media as a thumb-on-the-scale for our attentions. I'm too tired to explicate, but there's surely something there.
