The Short Story Reading Challenge. Friday, September 24, 2010. The First Person and Other Stories - Ali Smith. I like how most of the stories feel like they could actually have happened in Smith’s real life. She is excellent at blending reality with fantasy. Unfortunately they didn’t grab me as much of some of her other collections and stories so I wouldn’t recommend this for your first dip into Ali Smith’s world. Wednesday, August 18, 2010.

We can’t resist this rifling around in the past, sifting the untrustworthy evidence, linking stray names and questionable dates and anecdotes together, hanging on to threads, insisting on being joined to dead people and therefore to life.

The Short Story Reading Challenge. Monday, April 19, 2010. Junot Diaz, The Pura Principle (NewYorker, March 2010). I’ve heard a lot of good about Junot Diaz without having read his (Pulitzer-winning) novel, so when I saw his short story on a recent New Yorker, I thought it was a nice introduction. It’s indeed nothing like I usually read, so I’m clearly out of my comfort zone, but it was nice enough. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). There is something I keep wanting to say about reading short stories. I am...

Literary Escapade

Wednesday, October 8, 2008. In modern democratic societies, there is no value in censorship. Do you agree? As mentioned, the above arguments resonate across many modern democracies around the world. However, we must not simply send censorship to the noose, for it still plays a vital role in many modern democracies in the world due to the evolution of multi-cultural societies, globalization, and modern technological advances.

Albeit in Farsi) I have read Great Expectations and A Christmas Carol, and unfortunately I’m not quite a fan of Dickens, so I approached the story with trepidation. I wasn’t so far off, as the story was exactly like the Dickens I’ve read. Sam liked it so he rated it higher (4/5) while Tolu and I kept it low at 3/5. July 20, 2015.

The Old Stair Well. Author: Jenn Posted under: Fiction. The old stair well was dark and cold. On the way up, each board would creak and moan. The hairs on my skin would stand up tall and my mind thought things I should not know. At the top, there was a door—turn the knob and the fear was gone. The knob a bit tight, and yet it did turn and gave way to the sight of the old room. The cob webs have grown. The reds, blues, and greens are now dull, and the toys and books are all but gone.

The Short Story, Long

My mind is full, and I am heavy with disquiet, but this I will say: the writing is exquisite and entangling and engrossing; the characters baffling, beyond understanding, beyond knowing; the imagery - oh! Reminding me without preamble how, even as a child, I loved the vast, flat plains of Oklahoma. Well it's complicated, see? I can't remember when I've had to concentrate - to work. So hard to simply understand a book. Okay, so there are a whole bunch of sections, right? Before...
