I’ve just learned that the author of my all-time favorite sci-fi work has passed away couple of weeks ago. Dan Simmons was a true genius, and his 'Hyperion Cantos' changed the way I look at the genre. What a profound loss… 😢

Phantom of the Opera is my favourite 📚
Today is Gabriel García Márquez birthday. Have you actually conquered his "One Hundred Years of Solitude," or are you still lost in Macondo?

This is my favourite. It’s so beautiful!
A Book of Verses underneath the Bough,
A Jug of Wine, A Loaf of Bread—and Thou
Beside me singing in the Wilderness—
Oh, Wilderness were Paradise enow!
— Omar Khayyam
