Citro![]() Some folks simply tooled down our dirt road and left boxes on our porch. Inventory has mounted: my mother downsized her 7,000-plus library, and we (my Geezer and I) went to library book sales, yard emporiums on weekends, estate dispersals, and added the books my kids left behind, wanting to stock their own shelves anew. I am still learning, and I am having a good time with the random avalanches of books to be recycled into good homes, one by one. Nonetheless, she turned me loose when she felt I would not embarrass her she was impressed, finding I actually knew something about books and authors and styles. She encouraged my free help but was wary of sharing all those secrets.

Along with his charming board books and picture book, Daddy Goes to Work, Asim authored The Road to Freedom, an important middle-grade novel about an African-American father and son navigating the challenges of Reconstruction.

While not finding it quite as powerful or as accessible as 'All My Sons' (saw this in the cinema as another live screening from the National Theatre Live series and was blown away), 'A View from the Bridge' is a great representation of why Miller is one of the greatest non-Shakespeare playwrights. Managed to find the notes in an old notebook written down after watching the live screening of this 2015 production, and am kicking myself about forgetting how incredible this production is, and there is no excuse for this. It was on this site where my memory was jolted when it appeared in the more like this section reviewing other productions from the National Theatre Live series. Said before about only being acquainted with Arthur Miller recently, without computing at that moment (a momentary memory lapse, have had a lot of those lately) about having seen this National Theatre Live production of 'A View from the Bridge'. ![]() 6/26/2023 0 Comments As king dig![]() He made the choice to spend a whirlwind 24 hours in London for his father’s historic day, only to high tail it back to California the moment the ceremony was over. Prince Harry was also obviously torn about the two big events happening on May 6. It’s obviously a hypothetical situation since we all know how the fairy tale turned into a nightmare, but Harriman’s post was obviously a subtle dig at Charles and Camilla. If Charles had not had an affair with Queen Camilla, that day would have been celebrated with Diana on the throne if she was still alive. A post shared by Misan Harriman hard not to read between the lines, especially when King Charles III’s coronation was scheduled on the same day as Archie’s birthday. ![]() 6/25/2023 0 Comments Innocent Minds by Christina Engela![]() ![]() von Gleichstein and his little dog Vluffy… and a few uninvited guests. ![]() “When a sci-fi author makes an honest attempt to write a story for children, the hilarious and mind-bending result is something the author never expected… a children’s story – for ADULTS!ĭeanna is a quaint planet, home to odd-ball quantum physicist Dr. You can read this story with your kids… if you are willing to risk it! von Gleichstein and his dear little dog Vluffy on the planet Deanna deal with an infestation of mutant cockroaches! ![]() Announcing the release of something really, really unusual – a children’s story… for adults! “ Innocent Minds” by Christina Engela features 15 large full color illustrations, and tells the charming story of how an odd-ball ‘quantum physicist’ Dr. ![]() 6/25/2023 0 Comments Jess keating shark lady![]() ![]() is disclosing this in accordance with the Federal Trade Commission’s 16 CFR, Part 255.

The characters of John Fowles novels are not animates, however, the readers subconsciously identify them with themselves. The main importance of novel is generally about everyday life and the simple beauty of a human’s soul. The novel must express different subjects such as: feelings of love and death, humans activity in public, the role of art and history etc. If any novelist tries to express an original idea then it should protect the linguistic frames. Generally, the modern English novel, as a rule, is modest with its plot, manner and physical facts. His work mainly contains the novels where a lot of philosophic ideas are depicted. ![]() Fowles’ texts are the novel-cross-words where the readers must identify something they can change the readers’ lives.
