Book Soup Book Club presents the NYRB edition of Carlo Collodi's Pinocchio

December 6th Book Soup's Paige Garver will be leading a discussion of Carlo Collodi's 1883 classic Pinocchio . Collodi's Pinocchio is not your Uncle Walt's tale of a cute puppet setting out on an adventure to become a 'real' boy. No. This tale is full of anarchy, dark Gilliam-esque strangeness, sadistic violence (a hanging, for instance), a ghostly cricket who delights in taunting his murderer, a...

Gary McKinnon: the backlash

Gary McKinnon the autistic-spectrum computer hacker now looks set to be handed over to a vengeful US justice system. The increasingly disappointing home secretary Alan Johnson has concluded, he wrote to Janis Sharp, McKinnon's tirelessly campaigning mother, that McKinnon's human rights would not be violated by extradition. So that - barring an unlikely intervention from the courts - is that. Of course,...

Further Comments on Snark

I was rather naive on the meaning of the word "snark". I'd thought it was a short, dismissive review or comment, extremely negative in tone. In other words, an honest, damning comment on what one has engaged with. But I haven't given myself enough credit. Since my several dictionaries, including the on-line versions, either have no entries, or the lone meaning is pertaining to Lewis Carroll's...

The Walrus and the Carpenter by Lewis Carroll

For today's Poetry Friday post, here is a post about a pair of epicureans, which seemed fitting to me for the day after Thanksgiving with so many people feasting (and, perhaps, overeating; also, it's possible that some of you had oysters in your stuffing). Today's pick is The Walrus and the Carpenter by Lewis Carroll, from Through the Looking Glass and What Alice Found There , which I have posted once...

Grown-up “Alice” comes to Syfy

While we’re waiting to see what Tim Burton will do with Alice in Wonderland next spring, another Alice will give us a modern take on the adventure. Alice , a two-part miniseries set 150 years after the original trip to Wonderland, will premier Dec. 6 on Syfy — and it looks like a win. Let’s start with the promotional trailer. Alice Hamilton, played by Caterina Scorsone , is far from...

Thursday 12th November - Warwick Arms

Apologies for the lateness of this update, life seems to have got very hectic recently. We met (ages ago) to discuss 'Alice in Wonderland' by Lewis Carroll . To be honest there wasn't much to discuss! I think we were thinking that there might be some adult themes and hidden messages but it was exactly the same story I remember from childhood. I forgot to take a vote, but no one particularly hated it....
