The Collected Stories of Lydia Davis

Lydia Davis | 2014 | Fiction & Poetry

Book Favorite

"Davis is the ultimate prose stylist and this collection of short fiction proved addictive on many a late night. Her narrators are quirky, self-conscious, and sometimes humorously obsessive. Many of the stories are only a page or two long. But within those pages are observations that reveal the precise tics and nuances that make us indelibly who we are."

Movie Favorite

"I was moved by the probing philosophical questions this film asks, as well as by the fact that Schrader, now in his early 70’s, has made his most complete and satisfying film as a director. Myself, I hope to grow older and continue to make challenging, confrontational work. I tip my hat to Schrader for this formally disciplined and sometimes despairing film."

Book Favorite

"Searle has inspired and influenced me since I was six years old. He was one of the greatest illustrators and cartoonists of the 20th Century. A Japanese prisoner-of-war in his early 20s, he managed, often with great difficulty, to make drawings and, remarkably, to keep them. Horrifying, often moving, sometimes funny, this collection is a total joy, on so many levels. "

I <3 Courtney

This album is incredible. Courtney is a master of both complicated lyrics and simple singing. Her deadpan vocals just chime with me on every level. Sometimes, I feel this album can loose steam around halfway through, but its nothing I can't forgive with such incredible starting tracks. A real forerunner in the world of female lead alternative.

Fantastic series

Love the entire In Death series. JD Robb is the alternate pen name for Nora Roberts because the series really follows a single chatacter as she solves murders in the mid 21st century. Completely different feel from her Nora Roberts books which, while I love them, can sometimes be predictable and saccharine at times.

These guys are hilarious!

My new favorite people are entertaining and intoxicated (sometimes) as they discuss extreme horror cinema. Please find them on Youtube and listen to all their great podcasts. The world of podcasts is a little newish for me, but I thought this one was very entertaining and informative. Please check them out!
