Giun đất giundat — While I don't necessarily disagree with Ensler's thesis, or the help the project has provided to various women's charities, the whole thing, as a literary or dramatic work, is very problematic. Anything more honest than a fawning critique reveals how shallow the whole thing is; there's hypocrisy, repetitive symbolism and metaphors, a heaping of that empty sort of communal feminism that makes everyone feel good but doesn't actually change anything, and, upon close inspection, evidence of the kind of "creative" editing that awkwardly turns the mundane things people have to say about their sex lives into what is supposed to sound like meaningful drama, but is in fact just forced. I'm sorry, but all the positive vibes of a theater full of people chanting "cunt" isn't going to make it any less awful when the same word is said by some asshole trying to hurl invective at a woman when he is just to trying to make her feel like shit.

Brahim Abbes brahim_abbes — I saw Capote and wasn't quite sure what to expect from this novel given the author's eccentricities but I found it entirely engrossing. I spent most of the book wondering whether I should think these two individuals were really guilty. Although they didn't seem to be the smartest pair, they also didn't seem to be lacking morality. Of course, that's based on my own judeo-christian definition of morality. Capote just made them so human, not like the monsters that you could envision committing such brutal crimes against a defenseless, unsuspecting family. What I also found interesting was the detective work applied in a time when forensic science was not commonplace. Without ever interviewing the family, Capote manages to create personalities and lives for the deceased members without pity. That's not to say that I didn't feel poorly for the family and the community. But despite the fears of the community, they held together and maintained the midwestern stereotypes of family and friendship.

David Walraevens davidwalraevens — Many years ago, Dear Abby published an essay in her column called "Welcome To Holland," about how having a handicapped child is like planning a trip to Rome but ending up in Holland. It's not what you were expecting, and at first you're really disappointed, but then you find out Holland is nice. You like it there, it's better than Rome. In Ian Brown's case, when his son Walker was born with a rare genetic condition called cardiofaciocutaneous (CFC) syndrome, it was "Welcome To Hell." Walker will always operate on the intellecutal level of a one to three year old, requiring intensive 24 hour care for the rest of his life. He can't talk, or feed himself (he takes food through a gastric tube), or use a toilet. He will hit and bite himself for hours. He requires an array of drugs administered through IV tubes. Brown's description of a typical night of getting Walker to sleep is exhausting. The fact that Brown and his wife Johanna managed to take care of him at home for 11 years is nothing short of amazing. What's also amazing is that, difficult as Walker was, the Browns found good people to help them. Olga the nanny, friends and family who invited Ian, Johanna, their daughter Hayley and Walker on vacations, who accepted and loved Walker for what and who he was. Finding the serenity and acceptance promised in the "Welcome To Holland" essay is as difficult for Brown as raising Walker is. He is honest about his feelings, and he is the first to admit that neither he nor Walker fits the popular image of the saintly parent caring for the precious angel child. It's a monumental struggle for Brown to find meaning and joy in Walker's life, but he does. He manages to learn some very profound lessons from caring for his son and he shares them. You read the book to find out how the Browns managed to cope with the enormous burden of Walker's condition, and you end up finding out why they do it.

Ria De riadeleon — This book is pretty dense and took me a while to finish. The narrator, Ebenezer le Page, tells the story of his life on the Channel island of Guernsey through both world wars, and his lost loves and friendships. It's written in Guernsey dialect, which was enjoyable to read, but the absence of a streamlined plot made it slow going. However, the ending tied it all together and I finished the final page with a big smile on my face.
