Welcome to the weekend,
Here are five things I thought worth sharing this week.
This piece on the brilliant rare blue the Maya invented actually ties in nicely with the Vermeer forgery book I’m reading.
I really enjoyed David Brooks’ recent piece about late bloomers and what sets them apart from their early-achieving counterparts.
Reconsidering the writer whose legacy has been mostly regarded as someone “you should know about, but probably not bother reading.”
I enjoyed this walk down a collective memory lane; “How the future looked in 1974″.
After 85 years with a misspelled memorial plaque, the Brontë sisters finally get their dots.
Currently reading: I Was Vermeer by Frank Wynne
Have a great weekend.
