Tuesday, March 27, 2018. THE COMMITMENTS by RODDY DOYLE (1989). This short novel by the Irish writer Roddy Doyle reminds me very much of the mock-documentary movie This Is Spinal Tap. I know a movie has also been adapted from this book, but I have not seen it. This is the story of a group of Dublin working-class youths who style themselves as a soul band. It chronicles their small triumphs and petty tribulations, as greed, egotism, and women tarnish their dream. It is hilarious. Won England's Booker Prize.

Reading Log: Austerlitz by W.G. Sebald

http://gammyraye.blogspot.com/2015/07/austerlitz-by-wg-sebald.html

Monday, July 20, 2015. Austerlitz by W.G. Sebald. To be honest, I must confess that I was powerfully tempted to pretend that I loved this book, because it is universally considered by the intelligentsia to be a masterpiece, and to admit that I found it pointless and tedious is to acknowledge that my intellect is.less than stellar, shall we say. But what the heck, I'll tell the truth. This went right over my head. For the most part. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Adam Bede by George Eliot. View my co...

Reading Log: April 2015

Monday, April 27, 2015. Under the Skin by Michel Faber. Just take my word for it: this is a book you should read. I hesitate to even place it in a genre category because that would also reveal too much. Let's just say it fits in more than one category and can be enjoyed on several levels. The second half is perhaps a bit weaker than the first half, but overall this is a darned good book. I am much impressed with Michel Faber. After reading his 2014 novel, The Book of Strange New Things. Year 5 of Reading.

Reading Log: Monday Monday by Elizabeth Crook

http://gammyraye.blogspot.com/2015/08/monday-monday-by-elizabeth-crook.html

Friday, August 7, 2015. Monday Monday by Elizabeth Crook. The events of the massacre are all recounted in the riveting first chapter, which is extremely well done. The details are specific and visceral and immediate, so that the reader feels very present. If the whole book had been written with this high standard and if the two parts had connected better, this would have been an outstanding book. I would characterize this as light summer reading, suitable for vacations or by the poolside. Phineas Finn by...

Saturday, August 29, 2015. The Quincunx by Charles Palliser. But missing from this Dickens "tribute" is any of his humor, any of his celebrated ability to make characters come alive, and few of his "good" characters to offset the "very bad" ones. Almost every character in The Quincunx. Tuesday, August 25, 2015. Eleanor and Park by Rainbow Rowell. People want to remember what it's like to be young. And in love." So says Park, the 16-year-old boy in this modern day Romeo and Juliet. Sunday, August 23, 2015.

Reading Log: October 2014

Thursday, October 23, 2014. The Bone Clocks by David Mitchell. One of the lead characters in this 6-part novel is the middle-aged writer Crispin Hershey who gets a very bad review of his latest book, Echo Must Die. Which reads, in part:. So why is Echo Must Die. Such a decomposing hog? I would add a fourth critical comment of my own: David Mitchell is a pitiable amateur when it comes to describing a wizard-type duel and should leave this type of storytelling to J.K. Rowling or Stephen King. I just wish M...

The Gammy Pigeon

Gammy's Stories

Bedtime is not a time to be scared.no scary stories here. Books were my companions and playmates ever since I can remember. When we finally moved to a neighborhood with possible playmates for me, the pattern of love of literature was already set. All through college, with my 22 credits in Children's Literature, I intended to write for children. The rigors of teaching and raising a family soon overshadowed that and the ambition was buried.
