7/21: titling
I'm still listening to Michel Faber's Book of Strange New Things, and I really like how he titles his chapters. Each chapter's title is a phrase or clause that ends the last sentence of the chapter--so you know something about what you'll be moving toward, but you don't know exactly what's meant or the context in which it will apply. And then when you finally arrive at it, it all clicks into place. The effect is even better because I'm listening to the book rather than reading it, so I don't even have the usual visual clues that the end of a chapter is coming.
