Jonathan, we woke up Tuesday morning to a form of news that’s not exactly Earth shattering, not exactly shocking, but nevertheless, very important. My colleague, Jonathan Weisman, explains why. But as he formally embarks on his reelection campaign, Democratic leaders are increasingly confident that the polls fail to capture Biden’s real strength, and that the electoral map favors him over a Republican. Today, more than half of Democrats don’t want Joe Biden to seek a second term. michael barbaroįrom “The New York Times,” I’m Michael Barbaro.

Something has gone wrong, however, because her son has developed sinister psychopathic traits, though his father, Franklin Plaskett, refuses to acknowledge the problem. Owing to the fact that Kevin was a difficult infant and child, she gave up her successful career as a writer and publisher of travel guides in order to concentrate on raising him. In 2011 the novel was adapted into a film.Įven before her son Kevin was born, Eva Khatchadourian struggled with parenthood and a sense of ambivalence about becoming a mother. The novel, Shriver's seventh, won the 2005 Orange Prize, a UK-based prize for female authors of any country writing in English. It is written from the first person perspective of the teenage killer's mother, Eva Khatchadourian, and documents her attempt to come to terms with her psychopathic son Kevin and the murders he committed, as told in a series of letters from Eva to her husband. We Need to Talk About Kevin is a 2003 novel by Lionel Shriver, published by Serpent's Tail, about a fictional school massacre. 5/13/2023 0 Comments Colleen mccullough cesarShe based a character in The Thorn Birds on him, and also wrote about him in Life Without the Boring Bits. She had a younger brother, Carl, who drowned off the coast of Crete when he was 25 while trying to rescue tourists in difficulty. Her family eventually settled in Sydney where she attended Holy Cross College, Woollahra, having a strong interest in both science and the humanities. During her childhood, the family moved around a great deal and she was also "a voracious reader". Her father was of Irish descent and her mother was a New Zealander of part- Māori descent. McCullough was born in 1937 in Wellington, in the Central West region of New South Wales, to James and Laurie McCullough. Colleen Margaretta McCullough AO ( / m ə ˈ k ʌ l ə/ married name Robinson, previously Ion-Robinson 1 June 1937 – 29 January 2015) was an Australian author known for her novels, her most well-known being The Thorn Birds and The Ladies of Missalonghi. That same dynasty also happened to found the world-historic city of Cairo. At the same time such groups often existed alongside more developed societies: the Benin Kingdom whose powerful industry and sophisticated division of labour underlay the creation of a plethora of great art, including the famous bronze heads, or further to the North, the great civilisation of Medieval Mali whose capital, Timbuktu, was a centre for learning across the continent and beyond (at its height a quarter of its population attended its great universities), or the Fatamid dynasty of Egypt which introduced the new industries of ‘papermaking, sugar refining, porcelain, and the distillation of gasoline’ while the ‘older industries of textiles, leather and metal were improved upon’ (57). Some involved a basic division of labour and were profoundly communal in character: the Khoisan hunter-gatherers of the Kalahari Desert, for instance, or the Kaffa cultivators, the Galla pastoralists, as well as the communities of Bozo fisherman or the nomadic Fulani herdsmen. He shows us a rich and complex patchwork quilt of interlocking societies and civilisations. In the first section of How Europe Underdeveloped Africa Walter Rodney treats us to an image of Africa and its peoples before the horror of the transatlantic slave trade was visited upon them. 5/13/2023 0 Comments Los rubaiyatBetter a live Sparrow than a stuffed Eagle. But at all Cost, a Thing must live: with a transfusion of one's own worse Life if one can't retain the Original's better. Many quatrains are mashed together: and something lost, I doubt, of Omar's simplicity, which is so much a virtue in him." And, "I suppose very few People have ever taken such Pains in Translation as I have: though certainly not to be literal. Joel Heinrich sings off-kilter songs that take a darkly honest look at his. Fitzgerald states that his translation "will interest you from its form, and also in many respects in its detail: very unliteral as it is. Rubaiyat is a three-Piece doom wop/indie rock band based out of Los Angeles, CA. This influential translation is seen by many as a zenith of English literature in the nineteenth century. This edition contains both the first and fifth editions of the Rubaiyat. These works by Fitzgerald are the best known English translations.

Los rubaiyat, 'cuartetas desrimadas en el tercer verso', tal como las entendía Pessoa en palabras de Bernardo Soares, son una forma tradicional de la poesía persa que Pessoa adoptó y usó con frecuencia entre 1926 y 1935. The word "Rubaiyat" means quatrains - verses of four lines. Edward FitzGerald gave the title The Rubaiyat of Omar Khayyam to his translation of poetry attributed to the Persian poet, astronomer and mathematician Omar Khayyam (1048-1123). Video games have developed into a rich, growing field at many top universities, but they have rarely been considered from a queer perspective. As players attempt to 'pass' in Octodad or explore the pleasure of failure in Burnout: Revenge, Ruberg asserts that, even within a dominant gaming culture that has proved to be openly hostile to those perceived as different, queer people have always belonged in video games-because video games have, in fact, always been queer. Miller can bring to the popular 2007 video game Portal, or what Eve Sedgwick offers Pong, Ruberg models the ways game worlds offer players the opportunity to explore queer experience, affect, and desire. In the first book dedicated to bridging game studies and queer theory, Ruberg resists the common, reductive narrative that games are only now becoming more diverse. Video Games Have Always Been Queer argues that the medium of video games itself can-and should-be read queerly. Argues for the queer potential of video games While popular discussions about queerness in video games often focus on big-name, mainstream games that feature LGBTQ characters, like Mass Effect or Dragon Age, Bonnie Ruberg pushes the concept of queerness in games beyond a matter of representation, exploring how video games can be played, interpreted, and designed queerly, whether or not they include overtly LGBTQ content. 5/13/2023 0 Comments Olusoga black and britishI bought this book because we’d watched and loved Olusoga’s TV programme of the same name: this is not exactly the book of the TV programme, missing some things but able to add a lot more detail. Its imprint can be read in stately homes, street names, statues and memorials across Britain and is intertwined with the cultural and economic histories of the nation. But there we go – maybe people are catching up and haven’t got to it yet, as I’m a little lagging with my blog reading.Īnyway, I bought this book back in June 2020 and blogged about it here – this is the third book I’ve finished from that batch of buys, and I am looking forward to picking off other books soon (I have also had epic BookPost recently but I’ll tell you about that next weekend).ĭavid Olusoga – “Black and British: A Forgotten Story”īlack British history can be read in the crumbling stones of the forty slave fortresses that are peppered along the coast of West Africa and in the old plantations and former slave markets of the lost British empire of North America. I was also disappointed not to get more reads of the Stormzy book I read and reviewed last, which I thought was smashing. I’m feeling like I’m struggling with my 20 Books of Summer project at the moment – this is Book 9 and I’m currently half-way through Book 10 but I should be further along than that. 5/13/2023 0 Comments Untamed splintered bookShe must also decide whom to trust: Jeb, her gorgeous best friend and secret crush, or the sexy but suspicious Morpheus, her guide through Wonderland, who may have dark motives of his own.Īlyssa is a teenager whose mom has mental illness. There, Alyssa must pass a series of tests, including draining an ocean of Alice's tears, waking the slumbering tea party, and subduing a vicious bandersnatch, to fix Alice's mistakes and save her family. The real Wonderland is a place far darker and more twisted than Lewis Carroll ever let on. When her mother's mental health takes a turn for the worse, Alyssa learns that what she thought was fiction is based in terrifying reality. Alyssa might be crazy, but she manages to keep it together, for now. This family curse stretches back to her ancestor Alice Liddell, the real-life inspiration for Lewis Carroll's Alice's Adventures in Wonderland. Alyssa Gardner hears the whispers of bugs and flowers - precisely the affliction that landed her mother in a mental hospital years before. This stunning debut captures the grotesque madness of a mystical under-land, as well as a girl's pangs of first love and independence. |
