For years, after her move to France, Nancy Mitford would write Evelyn Waugh an early January letter lamenting the passing of the past year--in her memory it was the best year ever. Waugh was always sour, indignant and condescending in reply. After the first year she was definitely at least partly teasing him--it was one of her favorite things to do. But what I like about Nancy Mitford as shown through these letters was her absolute determination to have fun, be happy and surround herself with as much beauty as possible even when her life was far from perfect.

Fun read. A bit of historical fiction and a bit of a mystery. It takes place in turn of the century San Francisco, Oakland and Berkeley So that is also neat. Worth a read

I really liked this book. I wrote a short review
hervé le tellier's fiction, like that of his oulipo brethren, is based on the use of literary constraint. of the french writer's three works yet translated into english, enough about love most closely resembles a proper novel. with abundant charm, le tellier relates the lives of four individuals encumbered by a middle-aged malcontentedness that yields easily to amorous, extramarital activity. while le tellier never explicitly states the constraints employed in the work's construction, one of his characters, himself an author, outlines his own idea for a book that mirrors the format of enough about love: yves wants to write a novel around six characters. he will associate each of them with the numbers on dominoes, with the blank applying to a secondary character, though never the same one. the novel will reproduce the trajectory of a game of abkhazian dominoes: every double played will give rise to a chapter with just one character, a tile with two different numbers to a chapter with two characters, very occasionally three if one of them says and does nothing... yves's novel will be called abkhazian dominoes, but nothing about its structure will be explained to the reader. particularly as yves ends up never entirely respecting his own rules. we are thus treated to a glimpse of le tellier's methods, espying the scaffolding upon which the book was built. later on, as we follow the ensuing doubts and double dealings, the games are brought to a head as the characters are faced with decisions affecting more than their mere love lives. enough about love is an alluring story, despite its few forays into pedestrian philosophizing about the nature of romance and relationships. le tellier is an imaginative writer, and his works are often intriguingly composed. as each of his three books available in english differ so greatly from one another, any new le tellier translation would be a welcomed gift to readers, as one never really quite knows what to expect from the frenchman's books, save, of course, for abundant creativity and charm. i measure the scope of your declaration. it's not the emergency itself you're talking about here, but the requirement for truthfulness that emergencies demand of us. all at once i grasp for something else, between the lines: that, with me, you would leave the serenity of an illusory eternity where your days are not counted, for an unreliable world in which they are. illness would finally launch you into that world where time actually passes. i understand what it is that i give you, it's being afraid.

I think whatever appetite I had for Vampire Romance was fully sated by Stephanie Meyer's Twilight series. This new series involves grown-ups (college professors!) and one of them is a witch (not a human) - but I just couldn't get into it. I finally finished the whole thing (took awhile), but never got to the point where I truly cared about the characters.

If you're a fan of cute fantasy, the Shape Changer's Wife will, without a doubt, have you hooked from page one. It's well-written and beautifully developed, with a story that will bring tears to your eyes (well, it certainly brought tears to my eyes). Aubrey, a young magician, finds himself the apprentice of Glyrenden, a hated, shape-changing magician. Living in the house of Glyrenden brings along some awkward, strange characters in the shape-changer's wife, Lillith, the house-keeper who doesn't seem to know how to keep house, Arachne, and the oversized brute of a man, Orion. What ensues is a beautiful story of magic, love, romance, and hope. My absolute favorite thing about this book is the character development - we don't just learn more about the characters - there becomes more about the characters to learn, as they grow and develop with the help of their surroundings. The effect that Aubrey has on Lillith still has my heart pounding at the beauty. The Shape-Changer's Wife is a short, sweet story with a fairy-tale feel that will tear at your heart strings and possibly give you hope for the world. And, like a true story-teller, Shinn leaves the end open for interpretation. Love this booK!
