Some of that involved working with the homeless and seeing how it easy it was for people to fall through the cracks. “But part of it was trying to talk about the people who fall through the cracks…Working with Comic Relief. “Neverwhere was a way of talking about two things… I love the life of cities and I have an obsession with cities,” Gaiman reflected two years ago. He published, then extensively revised, a novel adaptation and, in 2013, oversaw a radio play with James McAvoy as Richard, Natalie Dormer as Door and Benedict Cumberbatch in the Capaldi role of the Angel. ![]() Of all his works it is the one that seems to speak to him most personally.

Actually, scratch that: I diving into these summer camp-themed books, we don’t just get to see what we missed by having *A* camp experience of our own, we get to vicariously experience a whole universe of cabin-and-canoe summers, even when we’re stuck at home, and even when summer is fading and another school year is lurking just around the corner. ![]() Thankfully, for those of us who never got that classic summer sleepaway camp experience, there is no end to the number of summer camp-themed books we can fall into to get a sense of what we missed. Still, while it may seem like every fictional character imaginable has spent at least one summer at a sleepaway camp, research suggests that in reality, it’s only a vanishingly small percentage of parents who send their kids away for even part of the summer. From The Parent Trap to Bug Juice, from Hey Dude to Bunk’d, summer camp has long been a favorite of Hollywood, on screens both big and small. Summer camp looms large in the American imagination. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Her last date ended before it began when he asked if she’d set him up with one of her model clients.

![]() ![]() But when two of their number meet Mr Norrell, they convince the reclusive magician to appear in society – and so reintroduce magic to England. At the start of the book, all magicians are ‘theoretical magicians’, which means that they study magic instead of practice it. Jonathan Strange & Mr Norrell is a huge story set in alternate England where magic exists. ![]() ![]() Spoiler alert: it didn’t (I finished another three books) but I did finally finish this which is an accomplishment. So before I left for holiday, I decided to download this, thinking that it should last me the entire two weeks. I’ve been wanting to read this book for a pretty long time (Goodreads says I shelved this as ‘want to read’ in 2012!) but its size has put me off. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Six Characters in Search of an Author created Luigi Pirandello’s international reputation in the 1920s and is still the play by which he is most widely identified.

His great-grandfather was a Seannachie (a Gaelic term for a bard or storyteller) and Iggulden admits, “story-telling is in the genes somewhere.” For writer Conn Iggulden, storytelling is in the blood. ![]() 5/19/2023 0 Comments Sit-In by Andrea Davis Pinkney![]() ![]() Her selection of subjects includes the prominent (Sojourner Truth, Harriet Tubman, Rosa Parks and Shirley Chisholm) as well as such lesser-knowns as Fannie Lou Hamer, an indefatigable campaigner for African-Americans' right to vote. Exploring these individuals' childhoods as well as their accomplishments as adults, the author smoothly distills biographical information so as to hold the attention of young readers. ![]() "Pinkney ( Silent Thunder ) presents eloquent portraits of 10 intrepid African-American activists for the causes of abolition, women's rights and civil rights. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() I wouldn't recommend this book for non-christians, as well written as it is, because of the harshness of the message behind it, and because I don't think they were this book's target audience. Very good book, very unsettling in its reality, but a must read for pastors, their wives, or anyone even considering going into the ministry. I found myself wanting his wife to cheat on him! However, the author only brings out this desire in her readers because she wants us to feel what the characters feel, and she sets the character and the reader straight. ![]() A Christian book about a pastor that makes mistakes that he doesn't think are mistakes. Knowing the little I did of the behind the scenes drama and dynamics. My parents were pastors, and I have attended churches both small and mega. This book was very difficult to read, considering it's subject matter. ![]() |
