The plot features an unlikely cast of characters, including a marine biologist, a grocer, a restaurateur, and a group of local vagabonds. The plot takes place on a grungy street with "the gathered and scattered, tin and iron and rust and splintered wood, chipped pavement and weedy lots, junk heaps, sardine canneries of corrugated iron, honky tonks, restaurants and whore houses, and little crowded groceries, and laboratories and flophouses." The actual street in Monterey has since been renamed "Cannery Row" in honor of this iconic novel. Cannery Row is a Depression-era novel set in Monterey, California.

It seemed to me that if she could remain transient here, she would not have to leave.” Sylvie, who is like a “mermaid in a ship’s cabin”, wanders by the lake while the family house goes to pieces. Ruth says: “I was reassured by her sleeping on the lawn, and now and then in the car. Sylvie commits to staying in Fingerbone to “keep house” for her nieces, though neither believes she will stay with them for long. These abandoned girls are raised by a succession of relatives, and finally their aunt Sylvie, a strange drifter who becomes the novel’s compelling central character. Housekeeping is the story of two orphans, Ruth and her sister Lucille Stone, living in remote Idaho by the lakeside town of Fingerbone. So whatever we may lose, very craving gives it back to us again.” There’s no one else in America today writing with such natural inner music. For to wish for a hand on one’s hair is all but to feel it. For when does a berry break upon the tongue as sweetly as when one longs to taste it, and when is the taste refracted into so many hues and savours of ripeness and earth, and when do our senses know any thing so utterly as when we lack it? And here again is a foreshadowing – the world will be made whole. In the simple spirit of these masters, Robinson’s prose, replete with metaphor and simile, is achingly quotable: “To crave and to have are as like as a thing and its shadow. flag with 48 separate and distinct stars.Since Abe the Newsboy was opening and closing in the publishing business no expenses were spared.

Not how, but 20 years ago this writer was a fact hound, not to be confused with a trivia hound. Upon retirement, he wrote a book, "The Life Story of Abe the Newsboy." Most of his bouts were aboard naval vessels. The 1952 edition carried all this information under a sub-head, "Most Contest Fought." It read: "Abraham Hollandersky, known as Abe the Newsboy, a world traveller, engaged in 1,309 contests in every part of the globe and also in 387 wrestling matches between the years 1905-1918.

Even if the lead character was just making a cup of coffee it sounded like the most dramatic/harrowing thing ever. Her delivery - to me at least - felt like she believed she had to tell the entire story with every ounce of her being as though she was delivering an intense Shakespearean soliloquy or something. A good story tells itself and gets helped along by a good narrator. The female narration was too 'drama school try hard' for me. I just happened to listen to it when I was working through some personal stuff and found it very uncomfortable to think about. That part doesn't take up a lot of the storyline, so if you can handle about 1/4 chapter of it being discussed then you should be fine. I found that massively triggering and probably would've avoided it altogether had I known beforehand. The more you hear his side of things the more it becomes clear why he's so intense, but I wish someone had mentioned that it contains elements of abuse. That being said though, the male narrator did a very good job - I just found the character he played irritatingly intense and erratic. I've listened to it twice now and was relieved that I knew the story well enough the 2nd time around to be able to skip over the parts where it goes back to 1864. Warning Spoilers: Similarly to some of the other reviewers, I'm not usually a huge fan of time-slip novels and this one was no exception.

It is argued that the harbour at Watchet in Somerset was the primary inspiration for the poem, although some time before, John Cruikshank, a local acquaintance of Coleridge's, had related a dream about a skeleton ship crewed by spectral sailors. Lewis' The Monk (a 1796 novel Coleridge reviewed), and the legend of the Flying Dutchman. The poem may also have been inspired by the legends of the Wandering Jew, who was forced to wander the earth until Judgement Day for a terrible crime, found in Charles Maturin's Melmoth the Wanderer, M. About my neck was hung." : lines 139–142Īs they discussed Shelvocke's book, Wordsworth proffered the following developmental critique to Coleridge, which importantly contains a reference to tutelary spirits: "Suppose you represent him as having killed one of these birds on entering the south sea, and the tutelary spirits of these regions take upon them to avenge the crime." By the time the trio finished their walk, the poem had taken shape.īernard Martin argues in The Ancient Mariner and the Authentic Narrative that Coleridge was also influenced by the life of Anglican clergyman John Newton, who had a near-death experience aboard a slave ship. "Young weaves together a wonderfully thorough exploration of the a-spec community, striking a balance between the academic and very personal. "Capturing the highest of highs and lowest of lows, Ace Voices is a wonderfully realistic look at what it means to be aspec in a heteronormative world." - Sarah Costello and Kayla Kaszyca, hosts of the Sounds Fake But Okay podcast and authors of Sounds Fake But Okay: An Asexual and Aromantic Perspective on Love, Relationships, Sex, and Pretty Much Anything Else Eschewing outdated narratives of 'lack', and attending to intersections with race, gender, and disability, Young reframes ace and aro experiences as sources of joy and celebration and as leading to relationships and communities founded on mutual trust, open communication, and respect for boundaries - something we could all benefit hugely from." - Meg-John Barker, author of How to Understand Your Sexuality It's an absolute invaluable resource for a-spectrum people, for the people in our lives, and for anyone looking to reflect on the impact that restrictive cultural sex and relationship norms have on everyone. " Ace Voices is a superb introduction to all things asexual and aromantic. But instantaneously, from somewhere deep in the shrouds of her jet-black shift, seemingly from nowhere, she whipped out a cleaver and severed my dick cleanly at the root. Building to a climax, hot gouts of cum spurted explosively across the tabletop and I let out a yelp of joy. She obviously knew that a cock is hardest and largest just before orgasm. Achingly stiff, continually straining to rise to an acute angle but constantly flattened onto the tabletop by her insistently rubbing hand, my cock grew to the size she required.Īt any moment I expected her to chop it off. The contrast between the two was curiously arousing and soon my prick engorged with blood. Her hand was soft, dry and piercingly cold. The tabletop was rough, grooved and hard. And immediately began rolling it back and forth with her hand, as if it were a roll of dough. It won’t be much use to you like this, I said. My cock laid there, flaccid and shrivelled. As I was naked already, I placed my cock flat on the surface, pressing my groin tightly to the edge. With this she motioned me toward an old, unvarnished kitchen table. There are all kinds of things I can do with it, she said. |
