While I was halfway through Your Face Belongs To Us, another brand new book arrived! 

Blood In The Machine tells the historical story of the Luddites: 19th century weavers and other fiber artisans who violently rose up to protest their being replaced by automated looms that only required unskilled factory labor to operate.

A book that sits at the intersection of three of my interests (weaving, history and technology) with modern allusions? Count me in!
