may he never stop writing
Revisado: 07-29-24
brett knows his characters and is curious about the worlds they live in. a delicious actor -- eat your heart out, Charles -- his portrayal of old Cedric here should not be missed. For all his blithe spirit,Brettis is capable of bursts of restorative rage over, for example our heedless abandonment of rich old theater traditions. Most of all,
Brett has as infectious a love and respect for his characters as does my beloved Anthony Trollope. Thank you, Mŕ. Brett! May you live and write forever and en joy it and enjoy it all forever. Jennifer Dunning

Historia
Saul Bellow evokes all the rich colors and exotic customs of a highly imaginary Africa in this acclaimed comic novel about a middle-aged American millionaire who, seeking a new, more rewarding life, descends upon an African tribe. Henderson's awesome feats of strength and his unbridled passion for life win him the admiration of the tribe - but it is his gift for making rain that turns him from mere hero into messiah. A hilarious, often ribald story, Henderson the Rain King is also a profound look at the forces that drive a man through life.

so simple yet so complex
Revisado: 01-02-24
the writing is so unadorned, like Henderson, but so powerful and poignant. And funny! wonder what happened to the slyly joyous humanity of this early Bellow. the reader was perfection but, oh, ditch the superfluous analysis, pallid and overwrought delivery of useless verbiage.

Historia
It’s spring and Three Pines is reemerging after the harsh winter. But not everything buried should come alive again. Not everything lying dormant should reemerge. But something has. As the villagers prepare for a special celebration, Armand Gamache and Jean-Guy Beauvoir find themselves increasingly worried. A young man and woman have reappeared in the Sûreté du Québec investigators’ lives after many years. The two were young children when their troubled mother was murdered, leaving them damaged, shattered. Now they’ve arrived in the village of Three Pines. But to what end?

A disappointing of highly improbable subplots
Revisado: 11-26-23
continuation of "mess" review: ... and slip some long-acting and potent downers to her and the exhaustingly mad poet.) I think Penny is at her impressive, affecting best when she is at her simplest. I still love best her "Still Life."
ps Do not let Myrna move from 3P!!!
