NEVERWHERE EVERYWHERE

TV series, comic book, novel, movie... this man never stops! Here's an appetizer before you actually dive into the novel. Here's an interview:

And a snippet from the TV series. However, I'd recommend reading the book first!

Interview with Cormac Mccarthy

In his first television interview ever, Cormac Mccarthy sits down with Ophra at the Santa Fe Institute to talk about his theories on writing. He admits that his Pulitzer-prize-winning novel, The Road, is a love story to his son and that he is still aiming for perfection. Meet the author of All the Pretty Horses, No Country for Old Men and a lifetime of extraordinary novels:

EL CAIRO - Alef Bookstores "The Taxi of Knowledge"

Alef bookstores in Egypt have started a new project of putting books in taxis in October, called “The taxi of knowledge”. The goal of the project is to urge Egyptians to read by utilizing the time they spend stuck in the traffic jam.

This is a step to expand the effect of reading books to ordinary people other than the potential readers who go to bookstores. This is because Egyptians generally do not read; do not like to spend their time or money on books, since they see it as a waste. So, if there is an opportunity to read an interesting book instead of staring blankly out the taxi's windshield, without spending a penny, why not?

I'm not a regular user of taxi services, but I think it's a great initiative. Do you know of any others similar to this?
