In The Truth and Beauty, Andrew Klavan explored how the work of great poets helps illuminate the truth of the gospels. Now, the award-winning screenwriter and crime novelist turns his attention to the dark side of human nature to discover how we might find joy and beauty in the world while still being clear-eyed about the evil found in it. The Kingdom of Cain looks at three murders in history—including the first murder, Cain's killing of his brother, Abel—and at the art created from imaginative engagement with those horrific events by artists ranging from Fyodor Dostoevsky to Alfred Hitchcock.

Long before she was a rare book dealer, Rebecca Romney was a devoted reader of Jane Austen. She loved that Austen’s books took the lives of women seriously, explored relationships with wit and confidence, and always, allowed for the possibility of a happy ending. She read and reread them, often wishing Austen wrote just one more. But Austen wasn’t a lone genius. She wrote at a time of great experimentation for women writers—and clues about those women, and the exceptional books they wrote, are sprinkled like breadcrumbs throughout Austen’s work.

I’m always asking questions. The fun begins when you start researching for answers. Such as… They aren’t just dreams, they come with other names, what are they? Plus…why do people argue with their computers? I’m Arroe… I am a daily writer. A silent wolf. I stand on the sidelines and do nothing but watch, listen study then activate. I call it The Daily Mess. A chronological walk through an everyday world. Yes, it’s my morning writing. As a receiver of thoughts and ideas, we as people tend to throw it to the side and deal with it later. When a subject arrives, I...

J.R.R.Tolkien (1892-1973) est un monument de la fantasy, dont le Seigneur des anneaux n'est que la partie émergée d'un monde immense à la richesse folle, tant par son histoire, ses personnages, ses différents âges, ses lignées royales, ses peuples ou bien ses langues. C'est un sujet d'étude passionnant qui ne cesse de se renouveler. Le 8 février dernier, à l'occasion de la sortie du Guide Tolkien de Yannick Chazareng (Les Nouvelles éditions Actusf), une journée était organisée avec des spécialistes. Nous avons enregistrer leurs interventions. On vous propose de réécouter : "Le ...

To follow and support us, click here: http://anovelreviewpodcast.com In Gormenghast, Mervyn Peake doubles down on his surreal vision, crafting a gothic maze where time moves in sluggish circles and tradition is a trap. The castle is both character and prison, and its inhabitants, bizarrely fixated on status, seem destined to stumble through their own eccentricities. Steeped in dark humor and absurdity, the novel is a thrilling, labyrinthine journey, as much about unraveling the world’s complexity as it is about losing oneself in it. Painting: I painted the view from Flay’s cave Some of ...

Interview mit Volker Petri, Landesverband Nord im Börsenverein des Deutschen Buchhandels

Sanayi Devrimi, sadece üretimi değil, eğitimi ve toplumsal rolleri de dönüştürdü. Fabrikalar daha fazla işgücü isterken, eğitim zorunlu hale geldi ve bireyler sisteme uygun şekilde yetiştirilmeye başlandı. Özel eğitim, engellileri topluma kazandırmaktan çok ucuz iş gücü yaratmanın aracı haline geldi. Kadınların çalışma hayatına dahil edilmesi ise özgürleşme gibi sunulsa da, ekonomik düzenin yeni işçi ihtiyacını karşılamaya yönelikti. Eğitim ve cinsiyet rolleri, gerçekten bireyin yararına mı değişti, yoksa düzenin ihtiyaçlarına mı hizmet etti?...
