In "N-Words," by Ted Kosmatka, a revolution in Korea unleashes on the world thousands of test-tube Neanderthal children, created from secret DNA sources and called "ghosts" because of their pale skin, ice-blue eyes, and fair hair. If you're looking for motivation to frequent the farmer's stand more often than the supermarket this summer, this book is a good place to find.it. Since my attention span is shorter than usual in summer, it's an ideal time for me to indulge my love of short stories.

New York Times food writer Kim Severson said her book about accomplished cooks wasn't originally planned as a confessional.
I was really just going to write about some of the older cookbook authors, before television, mostly women who were deep into one subject," Severson said by phone last week about her memoir "Spoon Fed: How Eight Cooks Saved My Life" (Riverhead Books, $25.95).

The Tree of Life," the much-anticipated movie from Terrence Malick, is as profound as you want it to be.
Many moviegoers will reject its glacial pacing, its whispery voiceovers, its lengthy cosmic detour to the birth of the universe (the ultimate flashback!), its religious - even Christian - implications. But sympathetic viewers will find themselves stirred, moved and spellbound by a frequently confounding and arguably overreaching project that just might be a great work of art: a movie that aspires to be as mysterious and powerful - and as attuned to the miraculous - as the Catholic Mass attended by its central family, or the baby's birth that functions as its core event.

So thank God for the Enlightenment. In a book that investigates the entirety of Western history, the Enlightenment emerges as the star because of the new thinking that emerged then--new thinking that remains with us still. The idea that it is our right to seek happiness obviously has its own complications, though. [Jean-Jacques Rousseau] knew that the happiness he felt on the Island of Saint-Pierre was temporary. "The happiness for which my soul longs is not made up of fleeting moments, but of a single and lasting state," he wrote. In that way, he was similar to the ancients, but he also recognized that the drive for happiness is inherent and must be pursued--and that happiness was not, in fact, the tool of fate, the prevalent thought in antiquity. Rousseau saw that real happiness is un...

Contrary to popular belief, the western world did not develop the science of astronomy. [Ashra Kwesi] credits pre-dynastic Egypt with developing astrology and cosmology, noting that it was "early Africans who were responsible for "mapping out the stars." and developing the "configuration of the great cosmic clock on which agriculture was based," which resulted from their discovery of the solar year which they divided into 12 parts. The Kemetic calendar, which gave mankind the earliest concept of time, can be found in books carved into stone in Egypt depicting the sun at various points during the month, he said.
Yet," according to Kwesi, "A sculptural representation of him had its head knocked off because of hatred of the history of Africa," and he was "demonized in the recent Mummy fil...
