Saturday, May 30, 2015. The Mockingbird Next Door: Life with Harper Lee. Reading Marja Mills’ memoir of her brief time spent with Nelle Harper Lee has much in common with mining for gold. The successful prospector must sift through tons of dross to acquire a few nuggets of gold. I expected much, much more insight into the author of the great, iconic novel, To Kill a Mockingbird. Instead I got a load of information I found irrelevant, uninteresting, and completely lacking in insight to Harper Lee. Alice, ...

RabbitReader: The Yearling by Marjorie Kinnan Rawlings

Friday, August 07, 2015. By Marjorie Kinnan Rawlings. While straightening out my shelves, I came across a book I read when I was in about 7th grade. Thanks to Sister Stella Marie, who alone encouraged me to read books I enjoyed even if they verged on adult titles. The book I recently pulled from the shelf was The Yearling. By Marjorie Kinnan Rawlings. The dust jacket is long gone, and it has several stains on the cover, but I immediately became overcome with memories and emotions from those days. Back in...

Saturday, February 14, 2015. I am not much of a fan of thrillers, but when Algonquin Books of Chapel Hill comes out with a novel, I read it, regardless of the genre. By Tim Johnston might just change my view of suspense novels. Johnston, a native of Iowa City, Iowa, teaches creative writing at the University of Memphis. He has authored a young adult novel, Never So Green,. And a short story collection, Irish Girl,. Which won the prestigious Katherine Anne Porter Prize in Short Fiction. The narrative was ...

Eliot’s wonderful tale of life in the fictional town of Middlemarch, something like Coventry, England. Rebecca Mead is a staff writer for my favorite magazine, The New Yorker.

Saturday, August 09, 2014. Haruki Murakami is an important writer, and 1Q84. Is an amazing and wonderful story. But I must warn readers there are about a half-dozen explicit scenes, which account for about a dozen or so pages of 925 but are easy to spot and skip. However, one such scene has important implications for the plot. In part one and two of the novel, the chapters alternate between two characters.
