Reply to What's your favorite "coffee table" book? by SAT0725
"History of Beauty" and "On Ugliness" both by Umberto Eco... Sometimes the coffee table books can be so heavy on such topics...

Reply to TIL that in 2005 burglars stole $71.6 million from a bank in Fortaleza, Brazil by setting up a fake landscaping company near the bank and digging a 256ft tunnel beneath two city blocks to the bank over 3 months. Neighbors noticed vanloads of soil removed daily but assumed it was business-related. by Lagavulin16_neat
With the money, they should establish an underground railroad company.

Reply to comment by JoelBowman in Famous shut-ins: Dickinson, Proust, Faulkner... oh, and Tolstoy's head. by JoelBowman
In the case of Elena Ferante, with so many awards she won and even the novel is on going adapted into famous HBO TV series, I am still surprised her (or maybe his!) identity is still unknown (or at least inconclusive).
Based on her novel, many scenes are too detail for the specific time. Yeah, many people think it's semi-autobiography. Her anonymity helps it.

Elena Ferante (author of My Brilliant Friend series) is quite reclusive. Her true identity and true name is speculated for years.
