This book reviews some iconic things about Australia while reviewing colors. The Sydney Opera House is on the page about white. Koalas eat eucalyptus on the green page. Vegemite gets the brown page, etc. A few pages seem to be more of a stretch. This could work as part of a color unit. I enjoyed the photographs used in this book.
super creepy aand scary

Like many of Erdrich's books, this one is compiled of the narrative stories of many characters and are complexly interwoven to tell the story of not only a people, but of a shift into the mainstream culture. I read this for my Postwar & Contemporary Novel course and devoured its creativity, its sorrow and, most of all, its ability to take what began as a collection of short stories and transitioned into a narrative novel of many voices.

It held my interest but it was a little scattered. He jumped pretty quickly from “God is an archaic tribal fetish object” to “here’s what a contemporary church should look like” without addressing why one should bother at all.
I've had this fabulous tome for awhile now, and probably still haven't finished reading it, not really. This is not because of a defect in the book, but is rather because it is, as the editors say in the introduction (quoting Oscar Wilde), "a browsing experience, to dip into and to savor, rather than take a wild carriage ride through." And that's exactly how I've been approaching the book, reading an entry here and an entry there, not reading it from cover to cover. And I think it works best this way, but it means it's hard to know when I've "finished," but I'll say that I'm probably finished enough now to render a solid verdict. It's a truly amazing book. While it may not always fire perfectly, it's a type of contraption that's so novel that even its misfires are pretty entertaining. (Though I've got a known soft spot for cabinets of curiosities of every stripe.) And of course there's a ridiculous quantity of extremely talented contributors, whose names it would tax my "add author" button to the extreme to fit in here. I'll limit myself to a few. There is of course new, original art by folks like Mike Mignola and Eric Orchard, alongside "stories" (if that is indeed the correct word) from Cherie Priest, Holly Black, Caitlín R. Kiernan, Alan Moore, China Miéville, Michael Moorcock and more. There's even a story by my good friend S.J. Chambers, who doesn't appear to have an author page here yet, but will soon, mark my words!

To read about Mansfield is to read how Chekhovian a writer she is, but some stories put me in mind of Henry James. The novella and these short stories keep their emotions under the surface, but Mansfield puts in cracks that we peek through to see them. I find most of her righting rather cold and so not moving, but there is much pleasing elegance in her style.

I think this was actually the first of the modern GL books I picked up. After reading it a second time (in chronological order this time), I thought it was even better. Johns does a great job of re-telling the origin story without *major* alterations, while still allowing it to set up for the big stuff he's doing in the present.

This is probably my favorite King book (though there are a few of his short stories I love equally well). I love it because it is really about writing and art. Yes, it is horrifying and creepy and a bit too real for comfort (I couldn't sleep well for several days after reading it), but touched other emotions. The writer-hero-victim screaming "Africa! Africa!" did it for me...
I think the title is misleading. There are many profound essays in this book and Why I Am Not a Christian is merely one of them & a short one at that. Many regard Bertrand Russell as a 19th Century Socrates and those who don't, should read this text. His final essay after he was denied a teaching position at City College, prior to his professorship at Harvard, I think is his best essay ever! It is so eloquently written and speaks of liberties, justices, & simple logic, so important to us all. He could have drafted the Constitution. Many did not learn in college, when assigned B.Russell, that he was an Athiest. He explains his religious (or very much lack thereof), in the first essay in this book, prior to giving his opinion on religions in general. His intellect and his ability to communicate are inspiring. He says so much in so few words. As befitting his style & at his prior request, there was no religious ceremony after his death, in the mid 20th century. His ashes were spread over the Welsh Mountains. His literary works live on!
