http://wutheringexpectations.blogspot.com/2015/07/wandering-berlin-with-theodor-fontane.html
Be not afraid / Poor Tom will injure nothing. Friday, July 31, 2015. Wandering Berlin with Theodor Fontane. Many years ago I was in a book club that read Theodor Fontane’s Effi Briest. And then they keep changing it! Literary Vienna may be unfamiliar, too, but the Vienna of Schnitzler still exists in some way. Fontane’s Berlin. Is harder to find. The Woman Taken in Adultery. The Penguin Classics edition, translated by Gabrielle Annan, that includes L’Adultera. All of this would have been easy shorthand f...

Wuthering Expectations: Leonardo Sciascia's "history of the continuous defeat of reason"
http://wutheringexpectations.blogspot.com/2015/08/leonardo-sciascias-history-of.html
Be not afraid / Poor Tom will injure nothing. Wednesday, August 5, 2015. Leonardo Sciascia's "history of the continuous defeat of reason". I want to look at Leonardo Sciascia’s books for a minute. No flights of fancy, the major had warned him. All right, then, no flights of fancy. But Sicily is all a realm of fantasy and what can anyone do there without imagination?

Wuthering Expectations: “But where the hell did we make a mistake?” - Andrea Camilleri's silly, smutty Sciascia novel
http://wutheringexpectations.blogspot.com/2015/08/but-where-hell-did-we-make-mistake.html
Be not afraid / Poor Tom will injure nothing. Thursday, August 6, 2015. 8220;But where the hell did we make a mistake? 8221; - Andrea Camilleri's silly, smutty Sciascia novel. The Brewer of Preston. Is not a mystery novel, not really, although it has a detective novel subplot. More of a comic parody that turns sour, by which I mean a standard portrait of life in Sicily. 8211; although why a 19th century Italian opera composer thought a story about an English brewer was a good idea is beyond me. 8220;And ...
