He struggles with memories of his mother, Faye Andreson-Anderson, who, with no warning and no explanation, abandoned Samuel and his father when Samuel was only 11 and living in Iowa. Unable to deliver a book manuscript for which he accepted a huge advance, he marks time as an adjunct professor of literature at a small college outside Chicago in between long nights spent enveloped within the online game world of Elfscape. Samuel Andreson-Anderson, a once promising writer now in his thirties, suffers from stubborn writer’s block. 5/13/2023 0 Comments Vampires Today by Joseph LaycockFiction like Bram Stoker’s Dracula and the novels of Anne Rice soon come under consideration as well. “The first three weeks,” says Laycock, “are spent on Slavic studies, anthropology and psychoanalysis-the basis for a tool kit that students can use to approach vampires, or other topics in the humanities.” That means looking at sources ranging from Freud and Jung to anthropologists studying the folklore of medieval Eastern European villages. That’s the conclusion you might well draw from an Experimental College course this semester, “Vampires in Civilization.” Led by Joseph Laycock, author of Vampires Today: The Truth about Modern Vampirism (Praeger, 2009), the class takes a serious, scholarly and sometimes unexpected approach to understanding the undead. Do what you will-don a crucifix, ring your windows with garlic garlands, sharpen your wooden stakes. 5/13/2023 0 Comments Last night telegraph clubLo incorporates Chinese food and language, appending explanatory footnotes for romanized Cantonese and Mandarin terms and characters. As Lily falls deeper in love, though, she must work to balance the shifting elements of her identity with a landscape of sociopolitical turmoil that will resonate with contemporary readers. But openly exploring queerness isn’t an option-not with her mother touting “respectability,” and society’s limited perception of Chinese-Americanness as either “China doll” or “real American”-adjacent, and especially not amid McCarthyism-during which Chinese people, including those within Lily’s close Chinatown community, are targeted as Communist sympathizers. Dawning recognition of her lesbianism comes alongside a budding connection with Kathleen Miller, a white classmate. Lily secretly gathers photos of women with masculine qualities she’s drawn toward “unfeminine” clothing and interests such as chemistry, engines, and space. The year is 1954, and American-born Chinese 17-year-old Lily Hu, a rising senior at San Francisco’s Galileo High School, discovers the existence of the Telegraph Club nightclub by chance: via an ad in the Chronicle featuring a Male Impersonator. 5/13/2023 0 Comments Kingdom of the blind bookIn the introduction to Kingdom of the Blind, Louise Penny says she didn’t feel she could write again after his death. Penny’s husband Michael, who was the inspiration for Armand Gamache, died in September 2016. I so wish that wasn’t the case because the fact that Kingdom of the Blind was written at all is a testament to Penny’s resilience and courage. She settled all my doubts with book eleven A Great Reckoning (my review is here).īut she’s just published book number 14 and it saddens me to say that my earlier doubts have resurfaced. When we reached book ten of this series however I did wonder how much further Penny could go with this set up. Her central character, Armand Gamache, chief of police, is a superbly conceived character he’s surrounded by some equally well-executed personalities among his friends and family and he lives in the delightful (fictional) village of Three Pines. Louise Penny’s crime series set in Quebec has long been one of my favourite crime writers. How long can a series endure before it runs out of steam? That will take all her courage and a touch of the power she feels flowing like electricity through her veins. But that doesn't help in her quest to find her identity and recover what she's lost. A force that absolutely will not stop until she is dead. Sent by the darkest force in the universe. But no one can outrun their past, and the more lies that swirl around her-even from her new and trusted friends-the more disoriented she becomes, until she is confronted by a man who claims to have been sent to kill her. He stays close, and she almost feels safe with him around. Her saving grace comes in the form of a new friend she feels she can confide in and the fry cook, a devastatingly handsome man whose smile is breathtaking and touch is scalding. A force that wants to cause her harm, she is sure of it. Things they hide with lies and half-truths. Stranger still are the people entering her life. So when she is working at a diner and slowly begins to realize she can see dead people, she's more than a little taken aback. In a small village in New York lives Jane Doe, a girl with no memory of who she is or where she came from. 5/13/2023 0 Comments Chain of thorns paperbackBut reality intrudes when shocking news comes from home: Tatiana Blackthorn has escaped the Adamant Citadel, and London is under new threat by the Prince of Hell, Belial.Ĭordelia returns to a London riven by chaos and dissent.

Wordsworth argues that poetry and prose should be close in style and that the aim of poetry should be to imitate nature and inspire emotion in the reader in a way that emphasizes pleasure. Thus, Wordsworth sets himself apart from classicist poets who addressed an elite audience in language that was tied to formal rules. Because poetry speaks of universal human emotions, it should use diction that is natural rather than artificial and self-consciously literary. He defines poetry as a “spontaneous overflow of powerful feelings” (13) and the poet as “a man speaking to men” (8). Wordsworth explains his intention in his poems to express incidents from everyday life in everyday language and imbued with poetic sentiment. The “Preface” is often considered a manifesto of the Romantic movement in English literature. |
