ONE DAY, by David Nicholls, is a uniquely structured romance that focuses on July 15 of every year starting from 1988 through the early 2000s. July 15th 1988 was the beginning of the tumultuous Em and Dex (Dex and Em; those who read the book will get the phrase) relationship. This was the beginning and turning point of their lives that caused these two weave back and forth through each other's lives. At times I forgot that this book was written by a male author. He completely understood Emma and created a hilarious and real character that I bonded to immediately. Her sarcasm and self-consciousness made her endearing and I wanted to jump into the book to give her a big hug. This is the type of girl I would be best friends with in real life. And then there is Dexter...oh Dexter. Drop dead gorgeous model looks, womanizer, self-absorbed typical male. As with most women, Em was completely smitten with him. But as Dexter filtered through his girlfriends, Emma was always the constant in his life. She was never afraid to call him out and I yearned for the day that they would both be together. As much as I liked this book, there were times that the long descriptions of the past years events got to me. I felt discouraged and if this wasn't for the book club I would have stopped reading halfway through. But for those who are discouraged, do not stop! There was a lot of day to day activities in some of the years July 15's but I think that was the point. The same day every year is not a monumentous occasion but it was nice to sometimes get filled in on the past year. At the end of most of the chapters I really wanted to know what would happen July 16. Overall an awesome book. I was happy this was suggested to me because I can't imagine having not read it. This story lingered long after the last page was read and having Em and Dex in my thoughts makes me not take any of my relationships for granted.

** spoiler alert ** A Booksquirm Book Club Selection. January's Assignment: Chapters 1-2 I’m not completely sure about the character development so far. I don’t have a very good mental image of the main character. However, at the end of Chapter 2, I did have the interest to continue further into the book. I think the mysteriousness of who the main character is and what has happened to her is a good hook. Our copy from the library has an ‘African American’ sticker on it, but I’m not sure why, other than the author herself was African American. February's Assignment: Chapters 3-4 Ok, a little disturbed with the idea that Wright just had sex with someone that looks like she's 10. But putting that aside, I did really enjoy the 2 chapters that we read this time around. I enjoy Butler's writing style and I do like a good vampire story (no, Twilight doesn't count). The introduction that the girl is a product of a lab experiment took me on a new twist that makes me want to keep reading. I like that they are using the vampire mythos that includes the "thrall" aspect of those from whom the vampire feeds. March's Assignment: Chapters 5-6 I'm still very disturbed by the sex with someone that looks like she's pre-pubescent. It's creaping me out. We haven't gotten more info on thr experiment aspect, which still intrigues me. But I don't know how much more of the pedophile overtones I'll be able to take. April's Assignment: Chapter 7-8 So now the story is picking up. Questions are beginning to be answered and the fledgling vampire sex is not quite as creapy as I felt it to be earlier. Corse, that could be because it wasn't rwally part of the story in these chapters. I'm starting to like the story m/ore now. I'd like to know more about the Ina and the genetic ezperimentation.

Thoughts and ramblings and fantasies: the World of MIchael Paul Michael Paul may not be a household word in American poetry - yet - but with this publication DOG WHISTLE POLITICS we'd best become aware of him. Searching for information about the poet revealed a statement he made regarding the state of American poetry: 'Twelve years ago this writer stumbled into the wonderful world of poetry by a kind of happy accident. There was, at that time, a sense of anticipation in the poetic community, a feeling the art was about to undergo a renaissance which would take it from the fringes of American culture into a more central space, with larger, more appreciative audiences, and a much bigger readership. The spoken word scene was one of the principal reasons for that anticipation. Slam, with its origins in The Green Mill saloon in Chicago, with non-poet audiences judging original works and scoring them Olympic-style, and slam's viral spread from a local phenomenon into an international one, gave impetus to the notion that poetry would finally take its rightful place in the forefront of the arts.' The poet goes on to say that though no major renaissance has blossomed, the world seems ready for viewing poetry in a different more cogent way. And that is the way Michael Paul writes. He manages to find touchstones familiar to his audience and then transform them into something entirely unexpected. The title for the book is well chosen: 'Dog-whistle politics is a term for a type of political campaigning or speechmaking which employs coded language that appears to mean one thing to the general population but has a different or more specific meaning for a targeted subgroup of the audience'. And with that concept in mind Paul takes us off an a flight aboard a mongoose's back (imagine Paul's mongoose with wings) and lets us see the word as he finds it - a world full of contradictions, double entendre, tongue in cheek parodies and, simply, different says of viewing what our egos tell us we already understand - but don't! SARGASSO I was asked to write a treatise on horizons./ Call this research:/ watching Lost Horizon,/ listening to Vertical Horizon,/ reading Split Horizon,/ and spending time in the doldrums./ Sufficient time for all the cells in my boy to renew./ I was asked by a person in my own employ,/ whose job was to torture me, to submit/ a baedeker to the meetings/ of ocean and sky./ When I could no longer hold water, and my thoughts/ had become thin as clouds, this attempt:/ For seven years the vessel barely rocked./ No problem with the engine,/ she was simply under the direction of a captain/ with no sense of direction, Small comfort/ for the passengers, who kept looking at their watches./ There were births, marriages, funerals; generations/ coming in and passing away. Isolated in the slow rhythm/ of the sun describing arcs/ above a concrete sea./ Truth be told - there was no voyage./ Truth be told - there was no vessel./ Only a land-locked trope. Truth:/ I was both the ship and the clueless captain./ But the person paid to torture me was very real./ My report:/ Horizons are illusory./ The meeting of the oceans and the skies/ only occurs during rain, drops falling/ like letters on a page./ Cal me captain. Come board. And in Michael Paul's dallying with fantasies or novel worlds or just juggling the English language into a game of his own, he also deals with heady emotions: SMOKE AND MIRRORS The cigarettes weep, alone in the dark on a narrow bed. After twenty-four years they are finally divorced. All they want all they can think about, is the way it used to be How you would turn to them to be the punctuation for all the finished moments of your days. Interrogative. Exclamation point. Period. How you gave them your lips, your caresses, as they burned and filled you, taking your shape. Michael Paul. Unusual poems, unusual style, unusual talent. Nice to meet you at last! Grady Harp
