Sebastien Duda sebastienduda — I accidentally took a year-long break about half-way through Zadie Smith's sophomore effort--partly because I got distracted by a season of bookish overabundance, and partly because I initially found its "middle-upper class family drama" plot too pedestrian. Then I picked up Updike's "Rabbit" series again, and remembered just how riveting it can be to watch a "typical" suburban family slowly disintegrate. And riveting it is! Smith is doubtless one of our best living novelists, and it was rare that I found fault with a single sentence of "On Beauty." Between this and her debut, "White Teeth," Smith seems to've established some thematic ruts (i.e. race, class, immigration/assimilation), but fortunately these are topics that will take basically forever to exhaust. Which, as it happens, is about as long as I plan to remain a devout consumer of her prose.

Alexander Makarenko egoleos — This is the third book on India by V.S.Naipaul and certainly the most conciliatory one of the three. His earlier books on India were written when Naipaul himself was much younger and perhaps as a result were more scathing and critical of India's negatives. But this book shows a certain mellow tone and compassion. He writes about the 'rage' of each community and caste and religion in India and perceptively observes that one's own rage and historical injustice suffered is more important than other groups' rage and injustices. Still, he manages to talk to far-left revolutionaries, Dalits (the untouchables), semi-fascists and religious upper caste Brahmins and all else and present an interesting mosaic of India today, that is, the India of 1991, when it was written. Naipaul often evokes strong resentment among Indians, particularly upper caste Indians, about the incisive and critical eye he casts on India's major failings. This book is no exception but it is a must read for all Indians who want to see themselves more objectively. Non-Indians also should find it an absorbing book in bringing the complexities inherent in today's India's march towards greater economic prosperity.

Ravishankar Agg urshade — I pulled out my old hardcover of Passage to Dawn and read it again recently. I was pleasantly pleased at how much I enjoyed it (and how quickly time seemed to melt away as I read it). Being back on the Sea Sprite was like being slipping into my favorite pair of running shoes and setting out one the trail. Salvatore is a master at pulling the reader into the adventure. I felt the excitement of Drizzt and Catti-brie fighting side-by-side without some of the emotional and physical baggage of more recent annuals. I jeered Errtu in his infatuation with causing pain to the drow hero and his friends. I laughed at the antics of Harkle Hapell, Ivan, and the doo-dad Pikel. And, I smiled at seeing other old friends such as Danica, Cadderly, Stumpet, Bruenor, Regis, Wulfgar, and, of course, Guenhwyvar. Of all the books in the series, this one always felt like a class reunion more than a new adventure. However, like any class reunion, it's hard to walk away without renewing old friendships, reminiscing on past adventures, and marveling at how far you've come since the old days. Salvatore has definitely come far.

Aaron Short _aronshort — I really enjoyed viewing the photographs in this book, they were quite vivid, amazing, and I immediately fell in love with all those wonderfully cute animals. However, this is a warning to fellow animal lovers who happen to also be non-vegetarians (meat eaters). Don't read the stories because you may just quickly find yourself feeling guilty for eating meat, and learning about the horrid conditions these sweet animals must endure in their short lives. I've decided not to completely rate this because although the pictures were visually stunning, I couldn't bring myself to actually read the stories to give it a complete and fair review.

Axelle Durimel axelledurimelbb2b — So probably about a month ago I saw the movie Dylan Dog and I liked it. It was funny, paranormally and a little bit sad and while I wouldn't call it the greatest movie I've ever seen I did thoroughly enjoy it. Then I'm reading the back of the dvd box and it says that the film is based on a best selling graphic novel and the next time I go to work, there it is on the graphic novel shelf in the adult dept. I was very excited. Dylan Dog is a detective known for handling things that go bump in the night. He lives in a large strange messy house with his assisstant Felix who it is implied is really Groucho Marx. People (mostly women) come knock on his door and ask for his help with zombies, vampires, devils and other things I could never even think of. Dylan Dog starts out funny and quirky and kind of reminded me of a Tales from the Crypt Keeper type book, however over the course of the book the types of mysteries Dylan was dealing with changed. They became more and more existential and a little bit less funny. There was nothing wrong with the existential stories, they were still really interesting and I really did enjoy them but I became curious about when the stories were written. I know they were in the correct order but I wonder if they really were published one after the other the same way they appear in the book or if other stories came between them and the Dylan Dog works became more existential over time. I really liked the black and white style of the art work. I felt like it just fit the feel and tone of the stories perfectly. I also felt like it kept some of the gore from the stories from being completely overwhelming. I can't imagine trying to read some of those stories in color, I just felt like the amount of blood would have become overwhelming enough that it would have been distracting to the story.
