Graybox Graybox _ray_ox — Really interesting read. Many creative characters and more poignant than I had anticipated given that it takes place in a mental institution.

Jarek Kuta kutajarek — This is THE book to learn real recursion theory from. It isn't as good a reference as Odefreddi (though soare has more on the r.e. degrees) but it actually explains what is happening and offers insight into the subject. This isn't a book for the non-mathematician who just wants to know what all this stuff about Turing machines is about. This is a full course that takes one from the beginnings of the subject to a point where you are ready to read (and produce) recent papers. I personally wish it had a little bit more on forcing constructions and other non-re constructions (this part is frustratingly short) but the book is more coherent and reasonably sized for their omission. The approach taken is more modern than that of Rogers and much preferable. Obscure rarely used notions (e.g., the Medvedev lattice) and repetition of the same material in different contexts is avoided in favor of going through more complex constructions and results in the r.e.-degrees.

Yuliya Kostadinova _uliya_ostadinova — This book has the strangest format of any work I've ever read. It's extremely disturbing, but not in a cheap horror film kind of way. Instead, it frightens you in ways that, I'm pretty sure, have not frequently been attempted before. Also very powerful and moving on the level of human emotion. Not without its flaws, but a very compelling read nonetheless.

Alex Landauro senaqueimh98de — This is a beautifully written and atmospheric novel by Camilla Gibb. Beauty is set in contemporary Vietnam but encompasses a hard look at the cost of the last seventy years of Vietnam history through the eyes of three individuals. In Hanoi, Old Man Hung’s pho is famous. Pho is a soup that is “a combination of the rice noodles that predominated after a thousand years of Chinese occupation and the taste for beef the Vietnamese acquired under the French” and that combination of cultures and conquerors says a lot about the search for identity in this novel. Hung has spent his life selling his pho, surviving poverty and political upheaval. Hung has lives through French colonization, Japanese occupation, Chinese occupation and now the Capitalism occupation. In the 1950's Hung had a successful cafe and a soft spot for the dissident artists and intellectuals he let use his place for secret meetings. Now the 80 year old sells his delicious masterpiece from an old cart constantly dodging the police. Hung's noodle shop is one of a young man named Tu's favorite places. Tu' is the grandson of one of Hung's old radical friends. He works in a relatively new industry in Vietnam. He is a tourist guide for a company called New Dawn. Tu' spends his days pointing out the sights and wondering what his tourists, especially the repentant American Vets, are really seeing in his country. Maggie has also found Hung's pho and Tu'. She was born in Vietnam but raised in the U.S. She has come back to her unwelcoming birthplace in search of the artist Father she cannot truly remember. In order to stretch the bits of memory she has about her Father Maggie will need the Vietnam of Hung's past and the modern Vietnam of Tu'. Gibb captures the culture, smells and history of a nation that has all three in spades. Her descriptions of the food alone make me yearn for a Vietnamese restaurant to open up next door immediately. In The Beauty of Humanity Movement food and suffering seem to be the only constants in Vietnam over the last one hundred years. Camilia Gibb has taken a time honored plotline, searching for your roots, and by placing it in a country as young and as old as Vietnam has infused a freshness and complexity that had me enthralled.
