Contents of volume 1 decided
After pruning the most pretentious keywords and removing keywords from similar domains, I'm left with the following 36 chapter headings. It feel like a nice random set. Strange how much the meaning and feeling changes if you put 'a', 'the', or nothing in front of a word.
salt - the periodic table - antioxidant
the bridge - suburbs - colour samples
window - oarsman - renaissance
pulley - the flood - silence
victory - strangers - stone lions
Japanese submarine - the clock
a savage plant - magma
consolation - the chair - atomic number
poetic empire - the monument - subway
eagles made from plastic - epicycle
crust - conservation of matter - finger
simulacrum - wheel of fortune - territory
mission - fear - the moon
