The father of the writer Michael Ende, who crafted a literary tribute to him in his 1983 novel Der Spiegel im Spiegel (Mirror in the Mirror), created his works in an almost somnambulistic manner, just as the Surrealists around André Breton had demanded at the beginning of the 1920s: For his work, he retreated into a dark chamber, where he recorded his ideas on small sketch pads with the help of a flashlight attached to a pencil, in order to later realize them as visually powerful paintings. ![]() ![]() Edgar Ende (1901–1965) is considered one of the most important German representatives of surrealism in the first half of the 20th century. ![]() ![]() ![]() Elna says she already came once that morning.ĭanny has trouble comprehending that his mother was here this morning while he was eating breakfast.

In The Year of Reading Dangerously: How Fifty Great Books (and Two Not-So-Great Ones) Saved My Life, Andy Miller rediscovers what makes reading so important to a fulfilling life, through a list of books that he felt he should have read before (and, in some cases, pretended he had already read). For Andy Miller – an English literature graduate, former bookseller, editor and author of two other non-fiction books – picking up Mikhail Bulgakov’s The Master and Margarita in a bookshop kick-started his abandoned reading habit, starting an attempt to get through fifty books over the following year. If you would consider yourself to be a bibliophile, but can’t remember the last time you read a book for fun, you’re not alone. ![]() ![]() ![]() “The luggage is in the car, sir, and your suite is ready to be checked in,” I hear someone say, but I keep my eyes closed. He holds me even tighter, giving me the warmth of his body. I feel a slight chill as we exit the plane and know Lincoln is carrying me downstairs with how we bounce with each step. I don’t think I’ve ever cuddled in my life. That seems to be something I like to do with him. ![]() I wrap my arms around his neck and bury my face there. He doesn’t stop to pick it up, he just leaves it behind. His coat falls off me and onto the floor. “All right, sweet pea.” I hear him say before I’m being lifted effortlessly into his big strong arms. What is it about him that makes me crave him like this? A finger slides down my cheek, and I can’t help but lean into it, loving his warm touch. I hear footsteps coming towards me, and I close my eyes.

The conversation about locs was clearly a necessary one. The passage will be cut from later copies, and this incident has highlighted how important it is for white authors not to make missteps when writing about backgrounds they don’t personally identify with, even when the background is unconnected to a specific character.

It's weird and hard to explain, but you can't have something going on in the present when it's all supposed to be a diary written by the character.Įven though the Diary of a Wimpy Kid books decline a bit as they go, I'd recommend those instead. Like she'll talk about writing in her diary in the janitor's closet and then her friends come in and they leave but she's still telling the story like she wasn't just writing everything down. Plus the whole thing is supposed to be a diary written by the girl but everything plays out in real time. Everything is over-the-top drama and none of it is funny. And the way the kids talk is nowhere near natural. I thought I was getting Diary of a Wimpy Kid for girls but it's basically a whinefest with no substance. This is not something I'd tell anyone in this book's targeted age range to read. This is about an incredibly materialistic, shallow, melodramatic preteen who is whiny and annoying. ![]() ![]() ![]() For Pullman, he says, the ethical opposite is the "void", which is "evil". Oram argues that Pullman follows Milton in presenting "matter" as inherently good. Analogs Paradise Lost Īnne-Marie Bird links Pullman's concept of "Dust" to "a conventional metaphor for human physicality inspired by God's judgment on humanity." Writing in Children's Literature in Education, she suggests that the first trilogy develops John Milton's metaphor of "dark materials" from Paradise Lost "into a ‘substance’ in which good and evil, and spirit and matter – conceptual opposites that form the basis of religious dualism – coexist." ĭust as "dark matter" is compared to the "dark materials" of John Milton's Paradise Lost. ![]() Pullman described Dust in an interview as "an analogy of consciousness, and consciousness is this extraordinary property we have as human beings". In the multiverse in which these trilogies are set, Dust is attracted to consciousness, especially after puberty the Church within the series associates Dust with original sin and seeks its end. In Philip Pullman's His Dark Materials and The Book of Dust trilogies, Dust or Rusakov particles are particles associated with consciousness that are integral to the plot. In Northern Lights, Lord Asriel travels to the frozen North to investigate the mystery of Dust. ![]() |
