I love F. Scott Fitzgerald's Great Gatsby, his almost florid romanticism and his poetic prose. The first part of This Side of Paradise had me completely, young glib man going to Princeton, full of himself, living a frivolous college life, falling in and out of love. I awaited the story's last part, wondering how his life might turn out. Instead, about mid-way through, and with virtually no coverage of Armory's WWI duty on the front lines, we are served a random, lazily assembled smorgasbord of poetry, memos, script form dialogue, long-winded essays on a very young person's attempt to come to terms with the world, etc. etc. etc. Most disappointing of all is the author's failure to explore the serial failure of his love affairs, a subject I wish he had addressed in far greater depth.

I kept on to the end, because of my interest in Fitzgerald's tragically short-lived career. Greatness I suppose was his with Gatsby, for it is work whose substance come through in a structural maturity, forming a contrast to the insubstantial characters and the shallow lives they live. A preface to the Paradise I read by defender Aaron John Loeb acknowledged the book's "technical errors." No, no,, we are talking strucutral errors.

And still, there is the soul of this author; but what a wasted opportunity that he should have been allowed by his editor (not Max Perkins, I hope) to stop working after the first 100 pages. Because of its second-half collapse, I can only give this book two stars.

This may be in the future, time wise, but things happen everyday that put us in a position to know someone who has lost someone close. What do you do? How do you cope?
If you have read any of the other "Eve Dallas" books you will appreciate this read.
The way Eve Dallas & Peabody handle the investigation is brilliant!
Eve is becoming more of a person not just a cop. Peabody is becoming more of a cop.
The love interests are still there. For Eve, the steamy relationship with Rourke. Yum!!
For Peabody, there is McNab. What more could you want?
Enjoy setting on the edge of your seat while you read this one.Get more detail about Kindred in Death.

Cheap The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn: (A Modern Library E-Book)

noreply@blogger.com (Paul Smith) — Mon, 27 Dec 2010 06:12:00 +0000

This book has awesome illustrations that help make one of America's favorite novels about an adventurous boy come to life for young readers.

After Huck's troubles with adults, he ends up taking a long adventure rafting thru the Mississippi river along with his friend, Jim. They encounter many adventures and in the process of reading these adventures, we are given excellent insight on American culture during the 1800s. The choppy English can make the book a little difficult for children, but ultimately helps to better immerse you into Twain's tale.

Mark Twain's original bad boy, Tom Sawyer, makes brief appearances in this book which helps establish an ongoing continuity. As well as with this book, I also highly recommend: The Adventures of Tom Sawyer. The Adventures of Tom Sawyer [ADV OF TOM SAWYER].
