  7. Smith: Selling the idea of opportunity

    My first real job out of college was at a wholesale hardware company. I started out as the sales manager, though at 25 I knew nothing about sales or managing. The scuttlebutt around the office was that the owner hired me because he thought I was a...

  8. Lessons from a literary master

    By Julia Keller

  10. Banned book club a real-time lesson in censorship

    Four Hundred Fifty-One Degrees is not a boy band. The group was founded by a boy, and it is led by a boy, but its ranks are primarily girls. It came together just 18 months ago and, depending on the week, it claims 15 to 20 members. That fluctuation should not be misread as a lack of commitment: The members have matching T-shirts, with &ldquo;451 Degrees&rdquo; emblazoned across the fronts. That said, matching T-shirts should not be misread as popularity: Until the other day, 451 Degrees was not especially well-known.

    It may not rank with literature's greatest opening lines &mdash; &ldquo;Call me Ishmael&rdquo;; &ldquo;It was a pleasure to burn&rdquo;; or &ldquo;Many years later, as he faced the firing squad, Colonel Aureliano Buendia was to remember that distant afternoon when his father took him to discover ice&rdquo;* &mdash; but the first sentences of Nicholas Tremulis' new 10-page memoir are undeniably arresting: &ldquo;When I was 4 years old, I wanted to be music. Not play it. Be it.&rdquo;

  12. The Biblioracle: Arranging the ideal bookshelf

    We talk about books every week in this space, but most of time it's about the words inside them. This week, we have to discuss them as objects, more precisely as objects that should be stored in specific — very specific — ways. Some...
