jeanette winterson and the tree of meaning

Busy busy blog day here at the Lab - after a bit of a dry spell too.

Well...the genius has struck again.

Please please read this amazing article written by Jeanette Winterson for the Times Book Review,about a book called The Tree of Meaning by Robert Bringhurst. The book is about the necessity of story, it's relevance to culture and the danger culture is in; and the article talks about the importance of art and how capitalism INTERRUPTS our lives constantly. The book sounds great - the article is brilliant.

Wow, is she ever smart.

Here's the article e-ddress - www.jeanettewinterson.com/pages/content/index.asp?PageID=446
