Sunday Morning Book Thread 02-13-2022 [All Hail Eris]Good morning, bibliophiles, and welcome once again to the classy and luxurious Sunday Morning Book Thread, that plushly appointed mosh pit of opinion, snark, choler, jest and japery, and our continuing conversation on books, reading, writing, and the culture at large. The stately Dungeon of Discord has been sluiced, mopped, and deloused, and the Borgia Party Pit is ready to host the most discriminating clientele. If you want to bop through Boccaccio without breeches, who am I to judge? Your natural right to cavort pantsless Shall. Not. Be. Infringed! Nor will I judge you for bowing to convention and wearing pants. Especially if it's these pants, which are sure to break the ice at your next box social! So belly up to the fondue table, spark some doobage, grab the beverage of your choice, and tell us what you've been reading! Let's take some tours of Horde libraries, shall we? This is Dr. Varno's M.C. Escher-esque library: "My personal library (in case anybody thinks *they* have a shelving problem)" Gekkobear has some unique design solutions that upcycle spent bottles and old lumber: "Good beer bottles to use with colored dye for spacers are Bud Light Orange as the plastic coated label can be soaked and removed relatively easily. The nice thing about Bud Light Orange is you don't feel bad about dumping it down the drain; because it is truly awful and should not be imbibed. Who dis: Guerrilla marketing at its finest! "...an 8-year-old second-grader named Dillon Helbig, surreptitiously slipped his hand-written, 81-page, self-illustrated masterpiece into the stacks of the children’s section of his local library because he simply wanted to share the holiday-themed story he'd created with other kids." Musical Interlude: "Graceful Ghost Rag" by William Bolcom Last week we discussed the beautiful way a short story can explore a single theme, quickly establishing the background of the story with an economy of setting and clever dialog. I was talking with the older brat about Hemingway's short stories and realized that it was my favorite style for a long time. I figure I'll revisit some of them. Posted by: CharlieBrown'sDildo at February 06, 2022 09:24 AM (XIJ/X) I like the Hemingway and Fitzgerald short stories, too. I find some authors pack a lot more moral and meat into a short work. Maybe it's because they can focus on a single incident. Posted by: CN The First at February 06, 2022 09:36 AM (ONvIw) BIG TWO-HEARTED RIVER - Ernest Hemingway THAT ONLY A MOTHER - Judith Merril THEY'RE MADE OUT OF MEAT - Terry Bisson "So who made the machines? That's who we want to contact." "The Compleat Anachronist" is a series of booklets published four times a year by the SCA. Each issue focuses on a topic relevant to the time period 600 C.E. to 1600 C.E. The Compleat Anachronist gives readers an opportunity to review a subject in much more detail than other SCA publications can provide. There are over 180 issues of The Compleat Anachronist, covering a wide range of topics including: Brewing, Falconry, Architecture, Bookbinding, Pottery, Banquets, Weaponry & Armor, Board & Card Games, and more.
