The Golden Age by Joan London, 2014 | A Devoted Reader

https://adevotedreader.wordpress.com/2014/12/31/the-golden-age-by-joan-london-2014

The Golden Age by Joan London, 2014. Posted in London, Joan. I have been fortunate to while away the last days of 2014 with a subtle and unsentimental novel: Joan London’s. Centred around a children’s polio convalescent home of the same name in 1950’s Perth, London tells the stories of patients Frank Gold and Elsa Briggs and their adolescent love affair alongside those of the other children, their parents and the home’s staff. She makes the plague of polio, for most of my generation something relegated t...

Grief is the thing with feathers by Max Porter, 2015. Is a sad, funny and singular. Novella in riposte to Emily Dickinson.

Who arrives at their London flat as they mourn their abruptly dead mother and wife after “. The friends and family who had been hanging around being kind had gone home to their own lives. 8221; Why a crow? Well, Dad is a Ted Hughes scholar who was “. 8221; This mak...

Miles Franklin Longlist 2010. Yes, I’m still breathing although unfortunately work and study have sadly cut down my reading and blogging. Just saw the Miles Franklin longlist for 2010. Has been announced and thought I’d share it. I’m delighted to see two favourites, Sonya Hartnett and Peter Temple on the list (the former for her painfully accurate study of female adolescence. The later for his bloody brilliant crime novel. And sorry to see Kalinda Ashton’s. And Cate Kennedy’s. Updated 23.6.10:. To mark R...

New Yorker article- Epic Endeavours by Daniel Mendelsohn. Posted in Literary links. Just a quick note to share an excellent article. By the always interesting Daniel Mendelsohn on three recent re-imaginings of Greek myths. One of the novels featured is. By my great favourite David Malouf, which Mendelsohn calls. Subtle, extremely moving, rich and novel, all of which I’d wholeheartedly agree with. Miles Franklin Longlist 2010. In memory of Wisława Szymborska, 1923-2012 ». 31 March, 2010 at 6:23 pm. Addres...

logophilia: No Country for Old Men by Cormac MacCarthy

http://logophilia-logophile.blogspot.com/2008/01/no-country-for-old-men-by-cormac.html

Saturday, 12 January 2008. No Country for Old Men by Cormac MacCarthy. Chigurh is on Moss's trail. Almost a killing machine, he methodically and clinically kills anyone who gets in his way, often using a slaughter house bolt gun. The man looked at Chigurh's eyes for the first time. Blue as lapis. At once glistening and totally opaque. Like wet stones. You need to call it, Chigurh said. I cant call it for you. It wouldnt be fair. It wouldnt even be right. Just call it. I didnt put nothing up. Meanwhile, S...

logophilia: The first book of 2008 - Cranford

http://logophilia-logophile.blogspot.com/2008/01/first-book-of-2007-cranford.html

Wednesday, 9 January 2008. The first book of 2008 - Cranford. Mr Harrison’s Confessions. 1853) is simply sublime. Narrated by Miss Mary Smith, from the first page it is an engaging and wryly amusing take on the predominantly female world of the village of Cranford:. Miss Pole, and her meticulous collection and broadcasting of gossip. Martha, the faithful young servant, and Jem Hearn, her “follower”. Mr Harrison’s Confessions. 1851) is enjoyable, though more than a little overshadowed by. 2 inclined, desi...

Wednesday, 30 January 2008. Vanity Fair by William Makepeace Thackeray. I’ve been meaning to read. For years, and I was very curious to know what I’d make of Becky Sharp. She’s one of those characters with a life of its own (and I’ve not even seen any of the screen adaptations of the book! John Carey, who introduced this novel (or wrote the afterword in my case, as I obeyed his exhortation to only read his introduction after reading the entire novel!

Tuesday, 12 February 2008. Go Tell It On The Mountain by James Baldwin. This poor blog's been sadly neglected over the past week or so, as it's been a busy time chez moi.but I won't bore you with the intricacies of revision for my property law exam! Instead I'd like to share my thoughts on James Baldwin's stunning. Go Tell It On The Mountain. And isolated from the rest of his family.

I also have to commend Anthea Bell's translation from the German. It's so skillfully done that at no point did I find myself self-conscious of the translation.

At least those of us who smoked had something to look forward to at ten-fifteen. Most of us liked everyone, a few of us hated specific individuals, one or two people loved everyone and everything. Those who loved everyone were unanimously reviled. 20 February 2008 at 11:05. 20 February 2008 at 12:15. 20 February 2008 at 17:44. That said, I completely...

Oh how I love thee…. Asymp; Leave a comment. Summer is in wide open, full-throttled swing. Many days we will find ourselves here slathered in sunscreen floating on my favorite kind of water, the kind that is chlorinated and in which you can see right through…down to the bottom. No surprises. Yes it’s a fake ocean…a man-made wave pool….but to us, today it is just clear joy!
