Who was it that came up with the idea that a million monkeys in front of a million typewriters would eventually, with their random keyboard smashing, type William Shakespeare’s complete works? Well, you can give the experiment a try here (link from the CC). And while you’re waiting for your monkeys to finish typing Love’s Labor’s Lost, check out some book excerpts I found:
- Heir to the Glimmering World by Cynthia Ozick — excerpt, NYT review, SF Chronicle review
- Chain of Command by Seymour Hersh — excerpt, CS Monitor review
- The Double by Jose Saramago — excerpt, NZ Herald review
- The Fall Of Baghdad by Jon Lee Anderson — excerpt, WaPo review
