Books and bombs

A touching tribute to an Iraqi bookseller killed this week by a car bomb. It's written like a dirge, mourning not only a man, but a city.

And another about Bush and his calls for social justice in Guatemala.

That's beautiful. Anthony Shadid's writing, I mean, not Bush's appearance in Guatemala! Thanks for bringing it to our attention.
