I feel like such a sucker! I was so enthusiastic about this book when I was a teenager! I can't believe I actually took this rediculous premise seriously!

No es representable (cuando lo han hecho, han modificado tanto el texto que es irreconocible); es complicada... Pero me sigue fascinando.

This was a really fun book and the kids loved it. They like the snake character and I enjoyed the backwards telling of the story.

Just finished, for a review — a masterpiece!

Very interesting look at the importance of taking societal perceptions and views into consideration when introducing technological advances. Technology alone cannot overpower the comfort of habit (e.g. predictions of "paperless offices" have been foretold to the rooftops for decades now, where I don't believe it will ever happen). Just because we can doesn't mean it will happen (or that we should).

To be honest I am not usually a fan of his books, but this one surprised me. I thought Wicked was depressing although I got what he was trying to say with it. But this novel had more interesting characters, and I enjoyed the small twist to the ending.

I probably shouldn't have read this so close on the heels of "The Kitchen House". While this novel explores another interesting aspect of Southern antebellum slave life, it wasn't nearly as well done as "The Kitchen House". I am waffling between 2 and 3 stars for this one. "Wench" explores the lives of four slaves who act as mistresses to their slave owners. They meet up four summers in a row at a Northern resort and the novel explores their lives and situations. The basic storyline is very interesting, but the book is unevenly written. The author tends to jump around a lot in time and perspective and this uneveness somewhat spoiled the book for this reader. The strongest part of the book is definitely the section where the writer tells the story of Lizzie, the main character. This section is fascinating and very well done. The other characters are not written as well and their stories are somewhat lost in the shuffle. I also hated the ending. It is really somewhat of a non-ending and is very awkward. The book really just kind of peters out more than ends.

This was a very interesting, well written debut novel. Some great bread recipes too! From back cover: "The life of thirty-one-year-old trophy wife Wynter Morrison suddenly changes course when her husband announces one evening that their marriage is over. Emotionally devastated and desperate for a change of scenery, Wyn moves to Seattle, where she spends aimless hours at a local bakery, sipping coffee and inhaling the sweet aromas of freshly made bread. These visits bring back memories of her long-ago apprenticeship at a French boulangerie, and when offered a position at the bakery, Wyn quickly accepts-hoping that the rituals of baking will help her move on. Working long hours among the bakery's cluster of eclectic women-Linda, the irascible bread baker; earth mother Ellen and her partner, Diane; and Tyler, the blue-haired barista-Wyn awakens to the truths that she missed while living the good life in Hancock Park. Soon Wyn discovers that making bread possesses an unexpected and wondrous healing power, helping her to rediscover that nothing stays the same...bread rises; pain fades; the heart heals; and the future beckons."

Generally I do not like books that are written as poems, and I probably would not have read this book if I had realized this beforehand. But I am very glad I did. This is a short, easy to read book that captures the childhood experiences of the author during her first year in this country after arriving here from Vietnam. The writing is simple and clear but full of language and settings that evoke the senses. It is convincingly told from a child's perspective, even though written years later.

There will be many returns to this new poem by AB. It stands singularly in its place, the poet coming through from the mind, onward. A steady voice, with presentiment for all the wants of writing at the edge of it all--the self the poetic, the epistolary.
