...have spread around the world. Jenny Saville's big nudes, for instance, with their masses of battered flesh, are descended from the questions women asked then about the abuse of women's bodies.

Feminism lives--and in mysterious ways...
Just before the epilogue of I Am a Strange Loop, there's a photograph of a sculpture, an in-curving, interlaced metal knot that could almost be a three-dimensional map of one of those recursive, self-referential arguments Hofstadter is so fond of. When I saw it, I was struck not just by how beautiful it was but also by the fact that I'd seen it before: it was made by my sister, who was so deeply inspired by Gödel, Escher, Bach 28 years ago.

Adomat said the male victim was much darker, but he added that the face had been badly damaged. Hembree also interviewed Bill Taylor, an employee...

There is one photograph in particular where she is looking straight at the camera and she's got shoulder-length hair and a fringe. She's looking very earnest. I dye my hair blonde and I always tie it back, and I'm older also. I'm 16 years older than she was when she died. I think I'm beginning to resemble my American grandmother, her mother...
