The first 100-some pages are rough. Whole last half of the book is fantastic. Fast moving, questions demanding answers, all satisfactorily answered. There are too many female protagonists to distinguish among, 3 or 4. The switch around constantly, flipping all around 100 years time. You end up blurring them into one ongoing person. And the result of that is half the women aren't developed satisfyingly enough. But it doesn't matter in the end. It was really fun, good and tight and satisfying. Still, can't beat her first novel, "The House at Riverton", the same historical mystery "message gramma hid 100 years ago in the old mansion will set us all free" is one the best of the genre.

This was another book I got assigned in college, but that blew me away. It's fantastic.
HILARIOUS! I was laughing so much reading this that I had tears running down my face. A great companion to a hilarious series.

* Young Adult: Supernatural event. Girl is pulled into the life of dollhouse dolls to experience how her treatment of them affects them and her own family. Realistic family dynamic. * Interesting/enjoyable, but too simple to read for pleasure as an adult. Would recommend for young reader looking for a "thrill" read. * The edition I read was illustrated by Trina Schart Hyman, one of my favorite childrens' book artists.

Really stimulating, though-provoking, awe-inspiring, and a great story. Solaris is parts science fiction, horror, thriller, and love story, and ends with what has to be the best closing line in the history of story telling. I would love to be able to read the original Russian (er, Polish) script, to get a feel for how much of the English version style is translated from the original, and how much was added by the translator. In any case, you'd never stop to wonder if it was written in a different language, except for a slight coloring of thoughts and ideas that, if anything, only heightens the atmosphere of adventure in a deeply foreign place that all science fiction seeks to capture. Awesome.
re-read After thinking about the book last night, I realized I was not as happy with the book as I thought. It has no real story line except sex and more sex. It's very short, more in line with a novella I'd think. The sex is hot and the writing it's self is good but but it left me wanting and expecting more out of it.
This is a converted Ph.D. thesis, and it reads like it: it has that shape that academics recognize. Introductory theory, the meat of the matter, somewhat redundant summary, and a last few paragraphs in which the opinionizing, so carefully repressed through the bulk of the work, is allowed to break through. :-) It's also inevitably somewhat dated, having been published in 1993. Nonetheless, it does provide answers to a question that has occasionally perplexed me, and, I'm sure many other Canadians - why have successive Canadian governments, always so keen to trumpet nationalism in cultural matters as a major necessity to keep Canada from being swallowed by the US cultural behemoth, been so completely ineffectual in fostering a Canadian feature film industry, as opposed to their generally good success in radio and, one might argue, some moderate success in television? Magder's book answers that question with an examination of the structure of the industry itself; with discussions of the alignment of Canadian commercial interests with the Hollywood machine over the course of the twentieth century; and with a look at the larger political movements (the Free Trade movement in the '80s, for instance, which clashed abruptly with emerging notions about restricting American distributors in Canada) that affected federal policy on the funding of the film industry. He does bring in some comparisons from other countries, such as Britain, faced with similar problems, but I would have liked more. Interestingly enough, he doesn't touch with a ten-foot pole, except by fleeting allusion, the one factor I would automatically add to his equation: the ingrained and learned disdain of Canadian cultural *consumers* for the Canadian cultural product. (I'd say it's not nearly as bad now as it was in my youth, when "Canadian literature" and "Canadian film" were considered to be near synonyms for "bad literature" and "bad film"). Hard to measure, but not hard to document, I would think. Anyway, this was, for me, an interesting read.

Very readable, and just packed full of "wow" - a must-read. One of those books which changes your whole perspective on things. So many things I didn't realize: the extent to which the native population of the Western Hemisphere was decimated by disease post 1542, the number of slaves imported into SOUTH America, the extent to which CHINA was changed by its interaction with Europe (and European exlorers/traders/settlers of the New World), the influence of malaria on the history of the hemisphere, how importation/exportation of plant life changed things, how quickly everyone got hooked on tobacco...the list goes on and on.
