Mundane is much more blunt and to the point—drab‚ mind- and soul-numbing‚ shit-out-of-luck offer their own shades of meaning‚ depending on how angry you want to be. But quotidian is such a delicious word. It rolls around in the mouth‚ and has eye appeal; you have to look it up.

    Thierry Lenain’s Art Forgery: The History of a Modern Obsession is‚ to my knowledge‚ the first book-length investigation into philosophical issues of art forgery since Denis Dutton’s 1983 edited volume‚ The Forger’s Art.
