In my profile picture, you find my lovely seraph Charlotte sitting next to me in a restaurant on East Side Manhattan, 2005. Despite such smartness, we live in Denmark - not N.Y.C.

Take it away!

    Hi Simon! Thanks for the invite. How far along are you in the book we share in common (What I Talk about when I talk about Running). I am close to finished. I thought reading this would inspire me to be more motivated with running. We'll see if it works! Take care...

    Just saw you added Cixous to your wish list. Read just about anything she wrote. I don't read French, but her language shines through translations.

    Hi Simon, thanks for your recommendation, I need to add that to my reading list! Theoretical physicist, wow, so you are like Leonard and Sheldon from "The Big Bang Theory"??! (A TV series that someone as TV-avoidant as me is getting totally addicted to!) So it is "communicating science" that you are doing right now, yes? A profession of envy! I have a whole list of science update podcasts that I obsessively go through every week, and science reporter would be my first choice of career if I were not doing what I'm doing now! As to Murakami, well, I only recently started his books. I like him better as a short story writer, although his longer novels are hard to stop once you get started.

    It's always such a pleasure to find people with favorite books in common, thanks for adding me!! I found most of Murakami's books on your shelf and a number of neuroscience-related titles - are you reading the latter for work or for fun or for both? :-) There are many titles on your favorites that I need to add to "Plan to Read"!
