SELF PROMO: I recently discovered this footage of Kate Bush performing "Wuthering Heights" on Irish television in 1978 and I think it's one of the best things I've ever seen in my life.
CROWD SOURCING QUESTION: An explanation for why we read fiction that I like is that it helps us order our minds. Is this a good explanation for why you read? Why or why not? What explanations do you like?
