Windmill’s Friday Feeling

The first in a series of posts with booky-links and cultural doo-bobs that have been catching our eye this week.

Book Lovers Never Go to Bed Alone - my shelves filled up long ago, and I’ve resorted to putting books in drawers, under the bed, and of course, that last great bastion of storage places, the floor. This site shows you how good it can be.

The Yellow Wallpaper - one of the best short stories I’ve ever read. A perennial favorite for English Literature students, but breaks into must read territory with an ending at once heartbreaking and terrifying. Maggie O’Farrell’s review is great too.

For the design inclined, here the folks at TCM have given classic films a modern poster design makeover, with ‘I want those on my wall now’ results. The original page isn’t working, but here’s another instead. (There are three pages of that post.)

And finally, if you’ve ever wondered what designers do when they have too much time on their hands, here’s your answer: book/album cover mashups. Obviously!
