I’m sure he didn’t want to, but the 10-year journey leading up to the publication of The Truth must’ve felt nothing shy of being strapped to a rollercoaster – naked and upside down.Īfter publishing The Game in 2005, millions of men sought out Neil for his advice on dating, or rather, getting women into bed. Neil Strauss had to completely lose himself to write The Truth.

I’m fascinated by the MK Ultra experiments that were performed by the CIA during the 1960s and ’70s, and some time ago I came across a particularly bizarre one. Rob’s parents were scientists who carried out dubious experiments at Sundial during her childhood - and she realizes that this past might have implications for Callie’s future. They mistrust one another, and each has a suspicion that the other means her harm. Rob and Callie’s relationship is badly fractured. A traumatic event forces Rob to take her twelve year old daughter Callie on a bonding trip to her old childhood home: a research facility in the California desert, Sundial. ![]() To start, what is Sundial about, and when and where does it take place? In the following email interview, Ward discusses what inspired and influenced this somewhat fuzzy tale. Having recently set her novel The Last House On Needless Streetin the lush greenery that is the Pacific Northwest, writer Catriona Ward is going somewhere very different for her new thriller Sundial ( hardcover, Kindle, audiobook). ![]() ![]() Has anyone read these? Recommend any others? Any relevant web-info I may have missed? ![]() who knows? I haven't looked yet but it's sorta billed as the Grand Poo-Bah of asexual research literature. Hopefully this post will remain editable long enough for me to insert a summary or review here for others future edification. Gotta find time to read something besides these damn forums! I'm beginning to think of the Grey area of the "asexual spectrum" as less about asexuality itself and more about sexuality in general. Lots of good relatable point, plus a lot of unrelatable ones. I've scanned through the first book, read the introduction and so far, me likey. ![]() The Invisible Orientation: An Introduction to Asexuality by Julie Sondra Decker $13.80 ![]() It would seem that I've pretty much absorbed most of the relevant info on asexuality that I can find on-line (thanks for the Wiki, AVEN!), so I've decided to invest in a couple of honest-to-gawd paper books.Īsexuality: A Brief Introduction by $6.95 ![]() ![]() ![]() While the comic went on hiatus after the release of Issue #20 in July 2018, a revival series written by Young and illustrated by Brett Bean began in November 2022, still under the name I Hate Fairyland but starting with a new #1 issue. Thirty years later, Gertrude is now an un-aging, violent misanthrope who, alongside her reluctant guide and friend Larry, constantly tries and fails to return to the real world. ![]() The comic follows Gertrude, a woman who was transported to a mystical world called Fairyland as a child. I Hate Fairyland is a black comedy fantasy comic written and illustrated by Skottie Young, and published by Image Comics, which started publication in October 2015. ![]() Cover of I Hate Fairyland #1, featuring Gertrude and Larry. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() If only he can get the cornerback Angel Marichal to talk. A reporter' s job is to find the missing pieces, and high school journalist Mitch True is on the verge of uncovering those pieces and nailing his first real story. In the end, the truth - and what Mitch does with it - surprises everyone. Is he an undercover cop, wonders Mitch? Or an ineligible player? In pursuit of a killer story, Mitch decides to find out just who this player is and what he' s done. Though Mitch gets a glimpse of Angel' s incredible talent off the field, Angel rarely allows himself to shine on the field. ![]() When Angel shows up Lincoln High, he seems to have no past - or at least not one he is willing to discuss. Through the eyes of a distinctly non-athletic protagonist - a fat high school journalist named Mitch - veteran sports novelist Deuker reveals the surprising truth behind a mysterious football player named Angel. ![]() ![]() He was born Elwyn Brooks White in 1899 in Mount Vernon, N.Y., into a semi-genteel family that made vacation escapes to Maine whenever possible. He expressed wonderment at discovering ``that the world would pay a man for setting down a simple, legible account of his own misfortunes.'' The world has done rather more than that: White's honors include the National Medal for Literature, the Presidential Medal of Freedom, membership in the (genuinely elite) American Academy of Arts and Letters, and, in 1978, a special Pulitzer Prize acknowledging his life's work. Indeed, White's favorite tune seems to have been self-depreciation. ![]() White's most successful full-length books were his beloved children's stories ``Stuart Little,'' ``Charlotte's Web'' and, to a lesser extent, their later successor, ``The Trumpet of the Swan.'' His longtime affiliation with a magazine that embodies urban sophi stication and has routinely been accused, over the years, of encouraging an artificial style that bespeaks intellectual eliteness would seem a further limitation. White has produced an outpouring of affectionate tribute that seems at first glance disproportionate to the achievement of a writer who seems so resolutely ``minor.''

Ness will do anything to avoid becoming another victim, even if that means lying low among the Friends of the Restful Soul, a questionable organization that may or may not be a cult.īut being a member of maybe-cult has a price. ![]() Whether that means becoming a Nightmare that’s monstrous only in appearance, to transforming into a twisted, unrecognizable creature that terrorizes the city, no one is safe. Because in Newham, the city that never sleeps, dreaming means waking up as your worst fear. Gotham meets Strange the Dreamer in this thrilling young adult fantasy about a cowardly girl who finds herself at the center of a criminal syndicate conspiracy, in a city where crooked politicians and sinister cults reign and dreaming means waking up as your worst nightmare.Įver since her sister became a man-eating spider and slaughtered her way through town, nineteen-year-old Ness has been terrified-terrified of some other Nightmare murdering her, and terrified of ending up like her sister. ![]() ![]() And with “The Monuments Men,” Clooney seems to be aiming for something faintly Hawksian again, casting himself in the role of Frank Stokes, the Fogg Museum art historian who conceives of the Monuments, Fine Arts and Archives (MFAA) program and ultimately finds himself running it. In between “Good Night” and “Ides,” Clooney made “Leatherheads,” a stab at ’30s screwball comedy that was reliably a half-beat off from Howard Hawks’ rhythms. In short, if Clooney started out as Soderbergh, somewhere along the way he seems to have turned into ’80s-era Norman Jewison. But “The Ides of March” and now “The Monuments Men” are likes movies made by someone else: dutiful, establishment prestige pictures with “big” ideas communicated in thuddingly literal fashion. Though wildly divergent in tone, both those movies were inventive biopics set against the backdrop of live television production - a world Clooney grew up in - and “Confessions” in particular seemed informed stylistically by the fast pace and self-reflexivity of live TV. ![]() ![]() When Clooney started out as a director, it was clear he’d learned a great deal about technique from his many collaborations with Steven Soderbergh, and his first two features, “Confessions of a Dangerous Mind” (2002) and “Good Night, and Good Luck” (2005), were compelling evidence that the pupil might be as good as the master. ![]() ![]() ![]() When Detective Marasi Colms and her partner Wayne find stockpiled weapons bound for the Outer City of Bilming, this opens a new lead.
