Poppy, a former actress who lives in the hotel her husband built in downtown Deep Valley. If the amusing way in which Lovelace wrote this scene doesn’t elicit a laugh, then Lois Lensky’s illustrations of three little girls with a zombie-like stare will do the job! Betsy, Tacy, and Tib are determined to persuade Winona to take them to see Uncle Tom’s Cabin, and when giving her gifts doesn’t work, they seem to think hypnosis will. In one of these hilarious scenes, Maud Hart Lovelace introduces a new friend, Winona, whose father is an editor for the Deep Valley Press and gets free tickets to various theatrical productions. Like all of the previous Betsy-Tacy books, Betsy and Tacy Go Downtown made me laugh out loud numerous times. Betsy, Tacy, and Tib are 12 years old and are trading in picnics on the Big Hill for solo trips to downtown Deep Valley, Minnesota, and they embark on more grown up adventures to the library and the Opera House. (from Betsy and Tacy Go Downtown, page 6)īetsy and Tacy Go Downtown, the fourth book in the Betsy-Tacy series, originally published in 1943, is my favorite of the Betsy-Tacy books so far. “And he threw it in the kitchen stove,” said Tacy. “Tacy’s father found Lady Audley’s Secret under her bed.” She looked anxiously now at Tacy’s tear-stained face. Early in the novel, after Bell surveys the carnage in the desert, he tells Lamar: "I just have this feelin we're looking at something we really aint never even seen before". Why is this style so powerful and so well-suited to the story he tells in No Country for Old Men?ģ. McCarthy has a distinctive prose style-pared down, direct, colloquial-and he relies on terse, clipped dialogue rather than narrative exposition to move his story along. The title of the novel comes from William Butler Yeats's poem "Sailing to Byzantium": "That is no country for old men, the young / In one another's arms, birds in the trees, / -Those dying generations-at their song." The poem also contains the lines: "An aged man is but a paltry thing, / A tattered coat upon a stick, / Unless soul clap its hands and sing, and louder sing / For every tatter in its mortal dress." Why has McCarthy chosen a line from Yeats' poem for his title? In what ways is No Country for Old Men about aging? Does Sheriff Bell experience any kind of spiritual rejuvenation as he ages?Ģ. One of her relatives has already done that: the distant, glamorous Aunt Clare, who has somehow turned graduate study in medieval history and an interest in herbal alternative medicine into a lucrative career complete with residence in rural Italy. Heroine Lena Gereghty (as she says, it rhymes with "clarity") is a medical school dropout from a significantly less tony part of the city, the daughter expected to make it out of her neighborhood and her social class. It's a diverting adventure that modernizes Gothic conventions, a bit of a mashup of "The Fall of the House of Usher," "Rappacini's Daughter," and BREAKING BAD. TRIPPING ARCADIA takes place in the present, though: specifically, Boston's luxurious Back Bay neighborhood. Mayquist checks many Gothic boxes: a damned pair of siblings, one male and one female a patriarchal villain and a heroine eager to find out the secrets that lie beyond the manorial doors. Kit Mayquist's TRIPPING ARCADIA: A GOTHIC NOVEL is self-consciously Gothic, in the manner not of lurid eighteenth-century chapbooks or nineteenth-century penny dreadfuls, but of literary Gothic fiction. Government, like dress, is the badge of lost innocence the palaces of kings are built upon the ruins of the bowers of paradise. Society in every state is a blessing, but Government, even in its best state, is but a necessary evil in its worst state an intolerable one: for when we suffer, or are exposed to the same miseries by a Government, which we might expect in a country without Government, our calamity is heightened by reflecting that we furnish the means by which we suffer. The first is a patron, the last a punisher. The one encourages intercourse, the other creates distinctions. Society is produced by our wants, and government by our wickedness the former promotes our happiness possitively by uniting our affections, the latter negatively by restraining our vices. Some writers have so confounded society with government, as to leave little or no distinction between them whereas they are not only different, but have different origins. ON THE ORIGIN AND DESIGN OF GOVERNMENT IN GENERAL, WITH CONCISE REMARKS ON THE ENGLISH CONSTITUTION.

Up to this point, I thought the book had a feeling of The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe about it, but the plot soon goes in a very different direction when the children find an ancient manuscript inside the hidden room. The children have fun exploring the large house the family are renting, particularly when they move some furniture and discover a secret door leading into a dusty hidden room. The story begins with three children – Simon, Jane and Barney – arriving in Trewissick, a small fishing village in Cornwall where they will be spending the summer holidays with their parents and Great Uncle Merry. I did wonder whether I might have read this book when I was younger and forgotten about it, but as soon as I started to read I knew I couldn’t have done as it didn’t seem familiar at all. Over Sea, Under Stone, the first book in Susan Cooper’s The Dark is Rising sequence was published in 1965 and as I’ve wanted to read that series for a long time this seemed the perfect opportunity to begin. This time the year is 1965 and as usual I found a wide variety of books to choose from, as well as a few that I’d already read. This week Simon from Stuck in a Book and Karen from Kaggsy’s Bookish Ramblings are hosting another of their club events, where bloggers read and write about books published in a chosen year.

Pioneer Girl was one of the first books Ingalls-Wilder wrote, but she could not find a publisher that wanted to print it.

Little House on the Prairie is a book written by Laura Ingalls Wilder in 1935. Wikiquote has a collection of quotations related to: Little House (book series) It’s not funny and it’s not scary and it’s all sort of depressing.” Basically, nothing about that quote is justified, in my view. This film has so many great aspects, so many memorable moments, unique characters, quality acting, cool quotes, decent action, high intensity, drama, suspense, you name it!įor example, Roger Ebert said Needful Things “only has one note, which it plays over and over, sort of a Satanic water torture. Indeed, all these years later, I have no idea what’s up with the critics. However, I didn’t know what Needful Things was about, or that I’d come to regard it as a classic. By that point in time, I knew Stephen King reasonably well, and liked movies based on his stuff. Heston‘s Needful Things as a younger lad, and I had high expectations. Does that mean it’s bad? Not necessarily. By Wade Wainio 4 years ago The film ‘Needful Things’ has a lowly 26% Rotten Tomatoes score. |
