A number of great books are marking some major anniversaries and centennaries, including The Diary of Anne Frank, Invisible Cities, and Ulysses. We look back at these books and their impact - and then on Footnotes, we dive into a study that found that there are 4 times more male characters in books than female, and how that impacts us as readers.
