I'm always fascinated by retellings of existing stories, especially when the story is told from the perspective of a minor character. When I heard about The Myths. Series, "where some of the world's most respected authors re-tell myths in a manner of their own choosing," I was intrigued. Marget Atwood's The Penelopiad. Seemed like a great starting point. Despite the subject matter, the book was a fast read ...

Blogging reviews of comics and books, of science fiction and equality, of shoes, and ships, and sealing-wax and everything inbetween. Thursday, June 28, 2012.

She needs a little sparkle. Sunday, 18 September 2011. One hundred and thirty-four. Woods - Louis MacNiece. My father who found the English landscape tame. Had hardly in his life walked in a wood,. Too old when first he met one; Malory's knights,. Keats's nymphs or the Midsummer Night's Dream. Could never arras the room, where he spelled out True and Good.
