The Temple, an illustration from The Ship that Sailed to Mars<\/a> (1923) by William Timlin.<\/em><\/p>\n

\u2022 “With the grotteschi<\/em>, Piranesi produced hybrid forms of ornament juxtaposed in an array without regard to single-point perspective. With his capricci<\/em>, he brought disparate structures into a landscape that existed only within the borders of the plate. Perhaps because of his early fidelity to accuracy and the long tradition of printmaking as a medium for the measured representation of antique forms, Piranesi\u2019s capricci<\/em> take on a particularly fantastic aura.” Susan Stewart<\/a> on the ruinous fantasias of Giovanni Battista Piranesi, one of whose etchings happens to be providing the page header this month.<\/p>\n

\u2022 At Dangerous Minds: 23rd Century Giants<\/em>, the incredible true story of Renaldo & The Loaf<\/a>! Oliver Hall conducts a long and very informative interview with two of Britain’s strangest music makers.<\/p>\n

\u2022 New music: Nightcrawler<\/em><\/a> by Kevin Richard Martin, recommended to anyone who enjoys the nocturnal doom of Bohren & Der Club Of Gore; and Murmurations<\/em><\/a> by Lea Bertucci & Ben Vida.<\/p>\n

“Throughout the book, McCarthy writes as if he knows something that more conventional historians aren\u2019t always keen to accept: that the past doesn\u2019t always make sense, that it\u2019s often cruel and irrational, and that some things aren\u2019t so explainable. History is not a book waiting to be opened so much as a Pandora\u2019s box that might curse us and leave us chastened by what we find inside.”<\/p>\n

Bennett Parten<\/a> on Cormac McCarthy’s baleful masterpiece, Blood Meridian<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

\u2022 “Inside me are two wolves and they are both paintings by Kazimierz Stabrowski.” S. Elizabeth<\/a>‘s latest art discoveries.<\/p>\n
