![]() ![]() ![]() Em knows all about Gyre’s falsified credentials, and has no qualms using them as a leash-and a lash. Em sees nothing wrong with controlling Gyre’s body with drugs or withholding critical information to “ensure the smooth operation” of her expedition. She also thought that the fat paycheck-enough to get her off-planet and on the trail of her mother-meant she’d get a skilled surface team, monitoring her suit and environment, keeping her safe. When Gyre Price lied her way into this expedition, she thought she’d be mapping mineral deposits, and that her biggest problems would be cave collapses and gear malfunctions.

In The Poetics of Otherness in Antonio Machado’s “Proverbios y cantares,” Nicolás Fernández-Medina examines how Machado’s “Proverbios y cantares,” a collection of short, proverbial poems spanning from 1909 to 1937, reveal some of the poet’s deepest concerns regarding the self-Other relationship. Otros poemas of 1907, to the writings of his alter-ego Juan de Mairena of the 1930s, Machado endeavoured to explain how the Other became a concern for the self. Antonio Machado (1875-1939) is one of Spain’s most original and renowned twentieth-century poets and thinkers. ![]() ![]() ![]() The three novels featuring retired police inspector Jackson Brodie - Case Histories, One Good Turn and now When Will There Be Good News? - are delightful evidence of an author unbound. Frankly, it's hard to care when the results are this good. Perhaps she wanted to see if the limitations of genre were paradoxically liberating, or perhaps she just wanted to play literary pranks of a more subtle variety. A Literary writer with a capital L (though one with a nicely disreputable sense of fun), Atkinson unexpectedly turned to crime fiction. ![]() Depending on how you chose to look at it, she was either breaking the rules of narrative in the grand tradition of Sterne or writing herself into a meta-fictional corner.Īnd then came the switch. She began twisting her plots into ever more elaborate shapes and playing games with literary in-jokes, varying fonts and pages of blackness. ![]() Atkinson's next two novels, Human Croquet and especially Emotionally Weird, covered similar material (with some swipes at academia woven in) but were increasingly formally complex, and not always happily so. Behind the Scenes began, like Tristram Shandy, with the conception of its narrator, and then ploughed through the rest of her life with tremendous energy and subversive humour. ![]() ![]() ![]() The writing is good, and Nimoy's performance is really enjoyable to me. The focus is on Star Trek and his creative efforts in general. He recites some childhood experiences, but doesn't go into so much detail that it might become dull and long-winded (George Takei, take heed). The focus of this book is Nimoy's experience developing and portraying his famous Spock character. There's a lot more to Nimoy than Spock and Star Trek. But I have listened to this book literally tens of times. I wouldn't say I have extreme reactions to books in the first place, no. ![]() Which character – as performed by Leonard Nimoy – was your favorite?ĭid you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry? ![]() Obviously as a Star Trek fan, all the dealings and goings-on behind the production of the original series were particularly interesting. Truthfully, most of the book is memorable. What was one of the most memorable moments of I Am Spock? Where does I Am Spock rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far? ![]() ![]() ![]() On the plus side, “It’s a small building,” Olivieri said. ![]() It may just be a simple matter of moving it to an adjacent lot, but the action is reinvigorating the entire preservation project. “They need to have us get it out of their way,” Olivieri said. Meanwhile, the studio needs to be moved from its current location because that lot is slated to be resurfaced by the town. When the eminent playwright and longtime Connecticut resident Arthur Miller died in 2005, his daughter, filmmaker Rebecca Miller, decided that his home in Roxbury would be sold but that his small work studio - a standalone 14-foot by 22-foot building - would be relocated and preserved. The GoFundMe campaign is just the latest phase in an effort that began 15 years ago. ![]() Two weeks ago a GoFundMe campaign was launched looking to raise $1 million to move the studio next to Roxbury’s public library, then renovate and maintain it. Supporters of the playwright’s legacy are raising funds and awareness to make that happen. ![]() The town of Roxbury wants to add Arthur Miller’s writing studio to that list. In Connecticut, you can visit the writing room where Mark Twain wrote “Huckleberry Finn,” the summer cottage that Eugene O’Neill used as the setting for “Long Day’s Journey Into Night,” the home where Harriet Beecher Stowe wrote “The American Woman’s Home” and two different schoolhouses where Nathan Hale taught. ![]() ![]() ![]() With an old doll the only clue to her true identity, Joss needs Sergeant Steve Beck’s help to find the truth…before a deadly criminal ring buries the remaining evidence: her.

He and three other chimaera have cared for Karou since she was an infant, but she knows nothing of the world they come from beyond the walls of Brimstone’s shop. ![]() Her guardian, Brimstone, is a satyr-like being who runs a shop where he trades wishes in exchange for human and animal teeth of all varieties. Once I started reading, I was pleasantly surprised! After a friend reminded me of this one’s existence, I decided to just jump into it cold, without looking anything up about the series. But honestly, I have a really hard time keeping track of all the different series with “_ of _ and _” titles. The book has been out for years, and I remember there being a lot of hype a while back. I have to admit that I had no idea what I was getting into when I picked up Daughter of Smoke and Bone by Laini Taylor. ![]() Balancing those two lives was hard enough, even before being attacked by an angel. In one, she’s a gifted art student studying in Prague in the other, she collects teeth for a ram-horned chimaera.
