Tahidul Islam tahidul — Ugh. What an awful book. The author wants to tell the story of Heracles and Atlas. Cool. Apparently she thinks she's the first person to make to connection between this ancient tale and the story of Jesus, insofar as interrupting the story with an entire chapter explaining the whole "bearing the weight of the world" emotion. (Though, curiously, she seems to have forgotten about St. Christopher). She also seems to have learned a new dirty word: "prick". Since Winterson has apparently decided to turn Heracles into a surf-talking chronic masturbator, she mentions his "prick" over and over again. Now I have no problem with a character's prick. But Winterson has beaten "prick" to the ground. Why not a "cock", "dick", "rod", "shaft", ever-popular "manhood", or simply "penis"? So what I thought was going to be a retelling of the famous legend from the Greeks is just a self-absorbed "prick-fest" in which the author vainly thinks that Atlas, Jesus, and herself are the only people to feel the crushing weight of the world. The only reason I finished it was because it was so short.

Atul Ghosh atulghosh5ca5 — It’s Friday the 13tDavid Peace's 1974h, December 1974, and ten year old Clare Kemplay disappeared on her way home from school. Junior crime reporter Eddie Dunford attends the police press conference, eager for his first byline, even though his father’s funeral is in two hours. Anti-hero Dunford ties Clare’s disappearance to the kidnappings of two girls in neighboring counties. Eventually he ends up on the wrong side of both the corrupt local police and the puppet-masters of his community, e.g. the business moguls and/or the Yorkshire mafia, depending upon how you view them. 1974 is filled with unsympathetic characters, and with ugly people doing bad things. There were a few plot details I didn’t fully understand. Did police burn down the camp because they wanted to pin Clare’s kidnapping on the gypsies? Or were they clearing the ground for developers? Or both? Neither? The story relies on dialogue to tell the story in addition to terse, fast prose. Luckily the dialogue is strong. The women of the novel, however, aren’t strong—they’re expendable. They’re also memorable, from poor Clare with swan wings sewn onto her back to the mother of another missing girl that Dunford may or may not love. The convoluted ending left me scratching my head. 1974 is the first novel in the Red Riding Quartet. Hopefully the unresolved plotlines will be cleared up in later books.

Inkola Inkola inkolac66b — Hate those college preps who were at your school? Bret Easton Ellis did!

Andrea Van andreavanw805c — I wasn't sure about switching from Jezebel's POV to Daunuan's POV but I LOVED it. The series continues to be originally hot, funny, and surprisingly heart-warming!!
