In the months after Helen’s illness, she clung tightly to her mother, and the two of them developed a few crude signs by which Helen could communicate her wants and needs. Helen’s fever eventually broke, but the illness left her blind, dumb, and deaf. When she was nearly two years old, however, she was struck with a sickness which gave her a high fever and which her parents and her doctor all feared she would not survive. The beginning of Helen’s life was ordinary but joyful-she lived with her parents in a small house on a large familial estate, and was a happy and intrepid child. Helen’s paternal lineage can be traced back to Switzerland, where one of her ancestors, ironically, was the first teacher of deaf children in Zurich. Helen Keller was born on June 27th, 1880 in Tuscumbia, a small town in Northern Alabama. In her 2019 chapbook Tell the Bees, she writes, “I’ve got 20,000 bees and hope.” (She does not rob banks.) She first began beekeeping at a difficult time in her life. Poet Sara Eddy keeps bees as well, and she serves as assistant director of the Jacobson Center for Writing, Teaching, and Learning at Smith College, in Northampton, Massachusetts. She just steals their honey, musing that living this way has consequences for her future job prospects: “it unsuits me for any other, except possibly robbing banks.” And even though Hubbell is known around town as the Bee Lady, she doesn’t own them either. There is an indigo bunting ghetto that “think they own everything, even the bees.” She takes inventory of the other residents, from copperheads to a bobcat. It’s a reminder to Hubbell that she is not the most important soul in the property, even though her name is on the deed. With twenty hives, she estimates her property contains “1,200,000 bee souls flitting about, making claim to all the flowers within two miles.” I recently read A Country Year: Living the Questions, a memoir about beekeeping by Sue Hubbell. In the novel, the protagonist – identified by his second name, “Me” – goes on trial at the Supreme Court for violating the thirteenth and fourteenth amendments by respectively owning slaves and reintroducing segregation. This paper analyses Paul Beatty’s Booker Prize winning comic novel, The Sellout (2015), as it relates to theories of black posthumanism, as outlined in the work of Alexander Weheliye and Hortense Spillers. 'The Jungle' initially appeared in a socialist newspaper. At one point, he also stumbled upon a laborer’s wedding party, which served as the inspiration for his opening chapter. For “The Jungle,” a 26-year-old Sinclair spent seven weeks in Chicago, touring stockyards and slaughterhouses and interviewing the laborers there, along with priests, bartenders, policemen, politicians and social workers. Yet he reported his books much like a journalist. Unlike most other muckrakers, such as Ida Tarbell and Lincoln Steffens, Sinclair mainly wrote fiction. Sinclair is arguably the best known of the so-called muckrakers, the forerunners of today’s investigative journalists who in the early 1900s exposed widespread corporate and political malfeasance. Upton Sinclair (1878-1968), American novelist, circa 1915. His writing style is sometimes regarded as aloof, even emotionless, yet it is also capable of making the reader feel as if the words were specifically designed with them in mind. They provide insights on human nature, the meaning of life, and the purpose of life. Pessoa’s writings are not just literary works, but also philosophical treatises. It’s only natural that we’d want to figure out what makes him tick. In fact, it would be difficult to find another writer that can elicit such strong sentiments of disdain from both readers and critics. On the one hand, he is an artist whose work is more famous than ever on the other hand, his celebrity has made him a target for criticism and even hostility. The life of a writer like Fernando Pessoa has been marked by a certain paradoxicality. “For those few like me who live without knowing how to have life, what’s left but renunciation as our way and contemplation as our destiny?” - Fernando Pessoa Cohlan later became CEO of Margaritaville Holdings and transformed the venture into what is now a sprawling global licensing operation that brought in $2.2 billion in sales in 2022-not including Buffett’s $400 million (est. Three decades ago, he met John Cohlan-a former finance executive whose firm invested in a bunch of fast-food chains. That one store ultimately led to an empire that encompasses bestselling novels (such as 1989’s Tales from Margaritaville), a Broadway musical, the Mailboat Records label and an internet radio station. “So the businessman evolved out of being an artist.” then you gotta be a businessman, like it or not,” Buffett told Forbes in 1994. “If you’re an artist, if you want to have control of your life. He wanted to own his personal brand, so he teamed up with longtime pal Donna “Sunshine” Smith to open the first Margaritaville T-shirt shop in Key West in 1985. As his popularity grew, Buffett increasingly spotted knock-off T-shirts at Key West merch stores, on sale without his approval-and with his name often misspelled “Buffet” to boot. But no one is as cognizant of this as the senior leadership team at Waystar, and it is such a blast to watch when they finally get to vent about it. Someone as lowbrow as Cousin Greg (Nicholas Braun) is even aware of it, and he’s Cousin Greg. Their sister, Shiv ( Sarah Snook), knows it, to the extent that she can barely keep a straight face any time her brothers talk seriously about business. Lukas Mattsson ( Alexander Skarsgard), who is in the process of purchasing the company, knows it. The hilarity of Kendall and Roman (Jeremy Strong and Kieran Culkin) being co-CEOs of Waystar Royco stems from the fact that they’re huge idiots, and everyone knows it. And it’s so gratifying when it happens, as it did in Sunday night’s episode of the series, “Living+.” Still, once in a while, the fact that these guys just really suck needs to be called out, probably for viewers’ sanity. Their parade of ineptitude and buffoonery, excused by their privilege and entitlement, is what makes them so sadistically entertaining to watch each week on Succession. Though we love them, the Roy children are not, as their father Logan famously said, serious people. The letter, delivered by Justin after much travail, is disquieting, but at least it reassures the Queen that Richard is sill alive. All England is talking about the disappearance of King Richard, the Queen's son, in the aftermath of his failed campaign to take the Holy Land, and of the scheming of his younger brother John to become king-with help, perhaps, from King Philip of France. On the road to London he comes across a pair of cutthroats and the Winchester goldsmith they've left to die-Gervase Fitz Randolph, who begs Justin to deliver a letter, hidden on his person, to Queen Eleanor in London. The Bishop, in the guise of charity, has overseen Justin's education and insured his welfare, but he refuses to acknowledge their relationship. The first in a series of medieval mysteries by an author well known for her historical novels (When Christ and His Saints Slept, 1995, etc.) introduces 20ish Justin de Quincy, a foundling who's just discovered that his father is the Bishop of Chester. I can walk away from this book feeling content or choose to continue this series or not. I know some readers were not happy with the ending, but I felt it was fitting and satisfying. My goodness the boy’s got skills…he will curl your toes!!! Logan's all about his family…his brothers, which I loved, and once he sets his sights on Emily, he’s persistent, but not pushy, in making her his. He will satiate readers who are thirsting for the inked, pierced (in all the right places!!) bad boy, who’s tough on the outside, but soft on the inside. We could have used more on what brought them to the place they were at, but there was enough information for the reader to piece together their past.īrian from Rock Me is one of my all-time favorite pierced, tattooed heroes, but Logan gives him a run for the money. Logan and Emily are each dealing with their own personal struggles, and although a little over the top at times, as far as the storyline goes, it’s not too angsty or overly dramatic.Įmily and Logan form a connection early on and the chemistry between them is quite believable, but what I really loved is the relationship she forms with all his brothers and that the brothers have with each other. Told from alternating points of view, Logan and Emily's, this book had an interesting plot. |
