I had always been an advanced reader and that was the first time that reading at my level provided subject matter that challenged me as well. I think it reminds me of those days of trolling the middle and high school libraries for anything (everything) to read. Not only that, but I received it on my birthday and it was a great present. ![]() Winston sent me a copy of his book and has the distinct honor of being the first author to send me a signed copy. I have received several books to review and while most are in an e format there have been a few people who agree with me that nothing beats the tactile sensation of a book in your hand. Not only do I enjoy reading what he writes, but he is super nice too. I would have to say that John Winston is right up at the top of that list. I have had a chance to interact with some terrific authors in the weeks since I started this blog. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() For this purpose, examples from politics and advertising are examined and evaluated for metaphorical language use. The aim of the work is thus to give as broad an overview as possible of the function and effect of metaphors and to investigate their effect on thinking. This leads to the question: What effects do metaphors have on thinking and what functions do they fulfill? But metaphors are not only used unconsciously in everyday language, but they are also used specifically in political discourses and in advertising, where they unfold their full effectiveness. What appears to be everyday language turns out to be more metaphorical than one assumes at first glance. They determine people's everyday lives and thinking more than one might think. Metaphors are more than just a rhetorical stylistic device in literary works. They settle in our minds and occupy an important place in our language. Playing metaphors in our lives a major role.

"The Depressed Person" was equal parts hilarious and heart-rending, and I was also a huge fan of "A Radically Condensed History of Postindustrial Life," "Forever Overhead," and "Adult World," to name just a few. I was absolutely blown away, and this is now probably my all-time favorite short story collection. Now that I'm done with it, I wholeheartedly agree.ĭFW found ways to tell stories through etymological vocabulary notes, through confessions of failure, through one-sided conversations where the questions being answered are never heard. The reviews that were in the back of my IJ copy described it as an "assault on the short story format" and that peaked my interest, but I wasn't sure quite what that could have meant. Hi again, about a week ago I posted about my finishing of Infinite Jest, and that I was excited to read more of his stuff, in particular this collection. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Like everyone else, she needs some time to readjust her thinking when George shares her secret. ![]() Kelly is amazing!

Thankfully, the story gets off on its own tracks soon enough. Even with her ostensibly cool presence at Jabba’s Palace, just like Shadows, her appearance is equally unimportant to the portents of Jedi which were full on display. More jumbly then well planned, the first act was nothing short of a sticky, hot mess. In fact, I was initially struck by just how utterly wonky the intro was. While I enjoyed this immeasurably in my youth, time has done little to retain its standing. And now, by Stackpole’s design, she got her very own origin story in: By the Emperor’s Hand. Mara Jade is one of the most beloved characters in what was once known as the Star Wars EU (Expanded Universe) Forging an essential component in Zahn’s seminally crucial Thrawn Trilogy of the early 90’s and the ensuingly ever-expanding universe that is Lucas’ ever ballooning commercial empire, she’s been a well developed and highly likable character ever since. ![]() ![]() ![]() With heart and hammer, Exile and Pride pries open a window onto a world where our whole selves, in all their complexity, can be realized, loved, and embraced. At the root of Clare's exploration of environmental destruction and capitalism, sexuality and institutional violence, gender and the body politic, is a call for social justice movements that are truly accessible to everyone. Here readers will find an intersectional framework for understanding how we actually live with the daily hydraulics of oppression, power, and resistance. His essays weave together memoir, history, and political thinking to explore meanings and experiences of home: home as place, community, bodies, identity, and activism. With a poet's devotion to truth and an activist's demand for justice, Clare deftly unspools the multiple histories from which our ever-evolving sense of self unfolds. ![]() Eli Clare's revelatory writing about his experiences as a white disabled genderqueer activist/writer established him as one of the leading writers on the intersections of queerness and disability and permanently changed the landscape of disability politics and queer liberation. First published in 1999, the groundbreaking Exile and Pride is essential to the history and future of disability politics. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Lastly there are the coders, temporary residents on the roof, whose disappearance triggers a sequence of events that threatens the existence of all - and even the long-hidden foundations on which the city rests Book Details In this special two-part episode, I’ll first offer a plot summary and list of characters, followed by analysis of major themes.
