On the one hand, this is hugely embarrassing for the reviewer and the NYT. On the other, the typical newspaper book review, with a plot summary that wouldn’t be out of place on the book jacket, is tediously formulaic.
Without wanting to be proscriptive, I don’t think listening all the time can foster the most attentive listening

Today was the third puzzle in this series, and I find the difficulty is increasing. One difference in the presentation is that you're not told whether you've gotten it right until you click Submit, irrevocably. This time I really wondered if I was about to commit some embarrassing error -- not yet.

I had not seen this excellent use of Malevich before. Tangentially, the craquelure seems like an irresolvable problem for preservation: you can't recover the original effect of the painting without essentially replacing it. Maybe the gallery could commission a replica to hang next to it
And yet theory can help articulate things you find interesting or not about a piece of music, which can help you in performing it, or in making your own music.
Solid rule, but I found “Gravity’s Rainbow” benefited from imagining tunes for the Broadway-style lyrics scattered throughout

I'm not saying this is a good thing but if I'm reading a novel and come upon a big chunk of poetry or song lyrics, maybe written by the protagonist maybe even crucial to the plot, the only thing I think is: cool I can skip this page
