A Work of Art about Workplaces

2008 August 7

The NY Times has a neat slideshow about a mural now in NYU’s Language and Literature buiding that depicts the workplaces of some famous authors.  One’s workplace is ever so important and it must have been neat to be able to go and research the houses that it all happened in.  I remember quoting lines from Pride and Prejudice in Chawton House, where Jane Austen did most of her writing.  I was just thinking, “I’m here, where Jane Austen stood and ate and laughed and cried and did work.  How cool is that?”
