We live in a dark and romantic and quite tragic world. These three sentences, from an e-mail written by British writer and poet Adam Thorpe, sum up what it means to live in the modern era. We live in a time where we are both caught up in the technological revolution as well as its dark side. The dark side is the many social issues that exist, such as terrorism, war, and corporate greed. The romantic side is the human drive to give and receive love and affection.
