I never did well in math because I needed to see the patterns to understand it. This book is great in helping you see the patterns that we call math and art.

It is a fine book. it is one of those books you may object it if you look at it as a feminist. but I regard it a fine work of art. its language is literary and somehow lyrical, its style is classic, first person point of view, reliable narrator... This is one of those a poor girl goes to a big and rich palace to work and the master falls in love with her, stories.... but again I suppose Charlott had handeled it fine!

This is one of the funniest books I've ever read. It's packed with rapier-sharp wit and hilarious misadventures, all delivered at breakneck speed. It's also a story of unexpected depth, despite the ridiculously shallow cast of characters and their asinine preoccupations. There's nothing particularly profound about the people and the 80s New York lifestyle it satirises, and it's not a book that screams Literary with a capital L. But make no mistake, it's very finely written and full of acute observations and three-dimensional characters. The real triumph of this book is probably that McInerney writes so convincingly as Alison Poole. If he weren't a man and famous in his own right for a distinctly different personality, I'd accuse this novel of being a thinly-veiled autobiography. He nailed the voice that well. I've come across some criticisms that this book lacks a 'plot', but when you're reading about characters and situations as hideous and amusing as the ones in this book, a plot almost seems beside the point. This is a character novel that succeeds both as entertainment and as a work of literature.

I'm the first reviewer of Lines from Neuchatel on Goodreads? Well, I'll try to do it justice. You know, he's slated to come to the Annual Book Festival at UCF in Orlando this Spring... Anyway. Lines from Neuchatel concerns the reflections of Peter Meinke and drawings by his wife of their lives in Neuchatel, Switzerland with their four children and eighteen Florida college students in 1971. Given this, it is easy to understand how most of the poems are dedicated to places and moments in Neuchatel. I consider the most striking aspect of his poetry in this piece to be his bilingualism between English and French. The going back and forth fluidly between the two came across as more interesting and captivating than off-putting and alienating, despite the fact that I haven't learned more than a few terse phrases in French my entire life. One poem worth mentioning for me would have to be from his “Afterword: 2009” section. The poem, entitled "Le Gorge de l’Areuse," concerns a moment in which Peter’s son slipped down a dangerous slope in one of the Swiss parks, ultimately ending up unscathed but having frightened his parents in the process. The poem is unique from the rest of the collection in that some of the lines repeat themselves invertedly (i.e., “No one told us fear is half of love / love of half is fear us told one no,”), but what makes this poem truly stand out in my mind is the imagery, and the connection of abstract nouns to concrete ones (i.e., “sifting through tears and scars of nightmares,” and “love and fear we feel tastes real as air”). Jeanne Meinke’s work either illustrates or compliments Peter’s poetry throughout this collection, and perhaps merits an equal amount of attention. Her pen and ink creations are all printed in black and white, with strong usage of straight lines to create shading, particularly by drawing many lines in one direction, and then drawing many more in a perpendicular fashion. While there are many landscapes to give a sense of the town, almost every single drawing includes some form of nature element, from potted plants to sullen swans, and even—once—a portrait of her husband writing in a park. Also, worth mentioning, I believe, is the font that they decided to use. While font choice appears to be a trivial concept in the considerations of poetry, I would argue that its choice helped to create the atmosphere of Neuchatel. It appears like any other font, except for the t’s, and the p’s when following another letter; these two manage something of a hanging treble clef that connects them at the top to the previous letter. The result is something of an antiquated charming look that is noticeable, but does not overpower the poetry or the prose in Peter Meinke’s afterward. As a writer, I feel as though Lines from Neuchatel truly emphasizes the beauty of sound in poetry, even when it's of a language we're not completely familiar with. Euphony is an important aspect of poetry that should not be forgotten, particularly if a person is shy and doesn't share their poetry readily with others. Read it to yourself. It may be worth it in the long run.

Really good historical account of the Civil Rights movement, with a well-reasoned argument placing the importance of grass-roots organization at the forefront.

This is a book i arrived at through Goodreads (thanks, Fiona Robyn, for the note on it!). I read and enjoyed Alain de Botton's collected essays "Art of Travel" a while ago, but didn't know about his Heathrow Diary, which turned out to be a beautiful reflection on life and travel in the modern time. For Botton, the airport is a symbolic, imaginative centre of our civilsation, and during the week he stays in Heathrow, he contemplates on travels, books, hotel rooms, encounters, technology, civilisation, the human condition, hopes.. the world at large. Here's a quote: "At the beginning of human history, we struggled to light fires and to chisel fallen trees into rudimenentary canoes, who could have predicted that long after we managed to send men to the moon and aeroplanes to Australasia, we would still have such trouble knowing how to tolerate ourselves, forgive our loved ones and apologise for our tantrums?"

It's a great intro into the HP series. I definitely enjoyed the book as a base for the rest of the books to be built on.
