Alcott's upbringing was greatly influenced by the Transcendentalist Movement, which strongly impacted her writing. Her father, Bronson Alcott was a teacher that believed children should enjoy learning, a controversial notion for the time and he moved the family to Boston, Massachusetts in 1844 where he established the Temple School and joined the Transcendental Club with Ralph Waldo Emerson and Henry David Thoreau. On November 29, 1832, Louisa May Alcott (1832-1888) was born the second daughter of Amos Bronson Alcott and Abigail "Abba" May in Germantown, Pennsylvania. ![]()

As Leader of the Inquisition Axis, it is his job to seek out the Young Elites, to destroy them before they destroy the nation. But some of the fever’s survivors are rumored to possess more than just scars-they are believed to have mysterious and powerful gifts, and though their identities remain secret, they have come to be called the Young Elites. Her cruel father believes she is a malfetto, an abomination, ruining their family’s good name and standing in the way of their fortune. Adelina’s black hair turned silver, her lashes went pale, and now she has only a jagged scar where her left eye once was. Most of the infected perished, while many of the children who survived were left with strange markings. A decade ago, the deadly illness swept through her nation.

For the Sun, who scatter’d into flight The Stars before him from the Field of Night, Drives Night along with them from Heav’n, and strikes The Sultan’s Turret with a Shaft of Light. Many of the changes Fitzgerald introduced in subsequent editions are quite significant, as can be seen in this comparison of two versions of Verse 1:Īwake! for Morning in the Bowl of Night Has flung the Stone that puts the Stars to Flight: And Lo! the Hunter of the East has caught The Sultan’s Turret in a Noose of Light. Fitzgerald revised “The Rubaiyat” four times after its first publication, so that there exist five published editions of the poem. Some critics consider “The Rubaiyat” as a standalone poem inspired by the original Persian verse, rather than a transcreation. It is useful to consider Fitzgerald’s “The Rubaiyat” partly as a work of English literature, since his translation is extremely free and creative. ![]() From thereon, “The Rubaiyat” had a meteoric rise in popularity, becoming one of the most-quoted poems in English by the early 20th century. However, poet Dante Gabriel Rossetti (1828-1882) discovered the poem in 1860 and played a significant role in popularizing it. Fitzgerald, a friend of Victorian poets like Alfred Tennyson (1809-1902), was considered only a minor literary figure at the time. When “The Rubaiyat” was first published in March 1859, it received little attention. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() The Imperial Radch trilogy begins with Ancillary Justice, continues in Ancillary Sword and concludes with Ancillary Mercy. "ESTABLISHES LECKIE AS AN HEIR TO BANKS." -Elizabeth Bear ![]() "ASTOUNDINGLY ASSURED AND GRACEFUL." - Strange Horizons "UTTER PERFECTION, 10/10." - The Book Smugglers "THRILLING, MOVING AND AWE-INSPIRING." - Guardian Now, an act of treachery has ripped it all away, leaving her with one fragile human body, unanswered questions, and a burning desire for vengeance. Once a weapon of conquest controlling thousands of minds, now she has only a single body and serves the emperor. Breq is a soldier who used to be a warship. Once, she was the Justice of Toren-a colossal starship with an artificial intelligence linking thousands of soldiers in the service of the Radch, the empire that conquered the galaxy. Ancillary Sword is Ann Leckies second novel in the Imperial Radch trilogy. On a remote, icy planet, the soldier known as Breq is drawing closer to completing her quest. There are few who ever could." -John Scalzi "There are few who write science fiction like Ann Leckie can. The record-breaking debut novel that won every major science fiction award, Ancillary Justice is Ann Leckie's powerful and thought provoking story of a warship trapped in a human body and her search for revenge. WINNER OF THE HUGO, NEBULA, AND ARTHUR C. ![]() ![]() ![]() Now that I am authorized to dip my toe tentatively into the waters of live performance, I am choosing to spotlight something I will never get to see in person (curses!) but that I think everyone who can get to London, U.K., should run and buy tickets for: Now That’s What We Call Musicals. 10 show (that will be livestreamed and available for seven days after the concert to audiences around the globe) by the iconic Jully Black, beloved by all reasonable gays everywhere after her absolutely riveting performance in Caroline, Or Change (if not before) and B.C.-based queer duo Madison Violet whose harmonies, it must be said, satisfy every bit of my close-harmony, music-festival nostalgia ( all of the longing, none of the unpleasant transphobia). MacIsaac, the renowned rock fiddler and soundtrack to so many late-night drives and long, meandering thoughts, brings a particularly mixed-and-matched sensibility to combining musical genres and pulling them apart again (a mode of art that I always think of as queer in my favourite ways). ![]() ![]() I am not even sure who thought up this somewhat eclectic triple bill, but whoever it is I would like to kiss them on the mouth because it hits so many of my queer sweet spots. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() I can tell most of Shinkai’s films, Voices of a Distant Star and 5 Centimeters per Second in particular, are well structured because they drag. Shinkai is undoubtedly talented as an auteur, and yet, I don’t think any of his works ever struck a chord with me the way they were supposed to. ![]() The man behind the wildly popular film Your Name, Shinkai is an emotional powerhouse in the anime industry. Which makes Makoto Shinkai’s short film (and second directed and written work overall) Voices of a Distant Star a mixed bag, to say the least. I like shipping, I like talking about shipping, but to be honest, “love at first sight” and the more spontaneous tropes in the romance genre don’t do it for me. I am very, very picky when it comes to love stories and fictional depictions of romance in general. ![]() |
