Literary Musings

Recent Reads, Vol II. The Brief Wondrous Life of Oscar Wao. I'm not sure what took me so long to read this one, but as the Pulitzer season approached I wanted to pick up a recent winner. I couldn't help but feel bad for Oscar, the super-dork struggling to overcome a family curse. But even so, I thoroughly enjoyed the time I got to spend with him. Also, the footnotes are awesome. Billy Lynn's Long Halftime Walk. I'm a sucker for anything compared to Lolita. And after I read about Lamb. Auster is easily on...

Literary Musings: 03.13

http://literarymusings-blog.blogspot.com/2013_03_01_archive.html

This book can be summed up in one passage: "It was not the sea that was cruel, but the people." The novel was entertaining enough, but it was on the predictable side and didn't offer anything I haven't read before. If I could go back and read it again, I wouldn't. By Thessaly La Force (art by Jane Mount). I found this one at Half Price Books. A Confederacy of Dunces. By John Kennedy Toole. This book kept popping up on "Favorite Love Story" lists around Valentine's Day and I'm so glad it fell on my radar&...

Literary Musings: Armageddon in Retrospect by Kurt Vonnegut

http://literarymusings-blog.blogspot.com/2012/12/armageddon-in-retrospect-by-kurt.html

Armageddon in Retrospect by Kurt Vonnegut. Vonnegut will always have a special place in my heart. He was my first favorite. Author with whom I fell madly in love. His writing honest, humorous, and incredibly intelligent. Vonnegut has got this knack for conveying more ideas in one short sentence than most writers can in an entire novel. His words are powerful and memorable. Although he held a pessimistic view of politics and the modern day world, he believed in the good of human kind. 2 of 50 (4%). Favori...

Literary Musings: How to Impress Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie

http://literarymusings-blog.blogspot.com/2011/05/how-to-impress-chimamanda-ngozi-adichie.html

How to Impress Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie. I find myself going back to this helpful list time and time again. If only Haruki Murakami was on it. May 27, 2011 at 12:07 PM. May 27, 2011 at 12:19 PM. Id save it. Like I said, I go back to it quite a bit. But I seriously wish Murakami was on it. I should probably just google it already. May 27, 2011 at 12:56 PM. This is brilliant. Im sure Ive been screwing up many of these for years. May 27, 2011 at 3:14 PM. May 27, 2011 at 5:18 PM. May 27, 2011 at 7:41 PM.

the ken: The Rum Diary, adaptations and film critics

http://trippingabout.blogspot.com/2012/03/rum-diary-adaptations-and-film-critics.html

A blog dedicated to literature by an arm-chair critic and would-be writer. Tuesday, March 06, 2012. The Rum Diary, adaptations and film critics. Rex Reed is film critic. To be honest, I had to Google his name and then I remembered that fact. Since I don't have time for pig-fucking recreants who never had the courage to write or act or paint or participate in the very medium they then attempt to criticize, I tend to forget they exist. Reed is also gay. And possibly a racist. Tonight and though I'd agree t...

http://trippingabout.blogspot.com/2012/02/tolstoy-v-dostoevsky.html

A blog dedicated to literature by an arm-chair critic and would-be writer. Friday, February 24, 2012. The other night I was with friends at a bar—my fifth bourbon of the night in the books—and one of my friends said out of thin air, "You told me once that for your money you'd always take Tolstoy over Dostoevsky. You can't really believe that, can you? Of course I had no intention of backing down at this point. If you start a fight, as my father once said, you better damn well finish it. Of course this se...

A blog dedicated to literature by an arm-chair critic and would-be writer. Tuesday, February 07, 2012. You know it's a big day when Google changes their icon to honor you. That's when you know you know you've really made it. I had a lengthy conversation about Charles Dickens the other day with somebody. I forget who because I've been drinking everyday for the last three. And A Tale of Two Cities. No word on where one of my favorite characters, Sam Weller from the Pickwick Papers.
