I am sure that while much of my extended family enjoys reading the revelations about our previous generations, they are somewhat mystified by my dogged determination to learn more. But there is also the need to know about all of them so I can know more about myself. In that type of search, I am not alone. From Katharine Norbury’s The Fish Ladder. AK Flying Book...

Map of My Dead Pilots. The library’s Hell section. From a recent article. In Smithsonian Magazine on the rehabilitation of the Marquis de Sade and a visit with his modern descendant, Count Hugues de Sade:. The family’s embrace of their ancestor is such that Hugues named his eldest son, now 39, Donatien, a first in generations. We’re proud of the marquis, Hugues said. And why not? Some of his writing is too extreme even for me, Hugues said. It is work of total delusion. As interesting as the changing atti...
