Captivating historical fiction

Revisado: 04-03-25

It was wonderful to read an unbiased account of the history of Judaism and that region that was told in a series of short stories.

Best of the dead bios

Revisado: 03-09-22

I’ve read 4-5 dead histories over the years and this is the most interesting one. It is full of intriguing insights and colorful anecdotes. The focus is on the cultural history and how the dead’s story fits in the broader picture of western history and arts.

Superb history

Lively book that relates a grand historical narrative spanning a century+ using one export crop, coffee, and one family as a central focus. I loved it!

Great story, odd narration

Revisado: 07-06-21

I’m enjoying this so far, great story though, I hope this doesn’t sound ageist, but the narrator sounds very old (or a heavy smoker or I’ll etc). Clearly she is a great voice actor and deliver the lines well but I can hear the vocal strain with every sentence. Perhaps this is intentional as it is a story of old Hollywood but it’s a bit odd.

The telenovela story was great

Revisado: 03-22-21

That is the only I have listened to but it was well done, an entertaining insightful look at trends in Mexican television and it answered some questions I have been wondering for a while regarding portrayal of race and social class in Mexican media. The media landscape there seems to be slowly improving, good news.

Enjoyable, well written & researched but pretty negative

Revisado: 03-03-21

I loved this book, great story telling and unique anecdotes but it has to be mentioned that the band and especially its followers are often viewed through a very negative lens and not much focus on what made the band special, especially the last decade when they at times were still amazingly good and always true to themselves (for instance the band’s activism and charity was mostly ignored) Likewise the followers have many positive qualities, highly artistic, entrepreneurial people who value community and culture.

A well curated selection of interviews, full of cool insights, fun tangents. Far more than just about music:)
