![]() ![]() But to be part of X’s life was to be “fortunate”. CM admits that early on in their relationship she saw in X “an uncommon brutality, something she used both in defence and vengeance”. She was a trickster, working and living under pseudonyms and in disguises, and a provocateur who didn’t take kindly to being questioned. X, we discover, was an avant-garde polymath, a renowned novelist, musician and artist. The novel mimics biographical writing: inside Biography of X by Catherine Lacey we find a title page for “Biography of X” by CM Lucca, X’s widow. After all, we read a biography primarily to learn about a person. The premise here – at least at first – is to explain X and her life. In the earlier book, the stranger remains a puzzle. ![]() Lacey uses them to test the tolerance of the small American town to which they are a total stranger.īiography of X, the Mississippi-born author’s fourth novel, is just as peculiar, but is in many ways Pew’s opposite.

Although Benny doesn't understand what these things are saying, he can sense their emotional tone some are pleasant, a gentle hum or coo, but others are snide, angry and full of pain. The voices belong to the things in his house - a sneaker, a broken Christmas ornament, a piece of wilted lettuce. ![]() Neuware -WINNER OF THE WOMEN'S PRIZE FOR FICTION 2022One year after the death of his beloved musician father, thirteen-year-old Benny Oh begins to hear voices. ![]() ![]() ![]() “A handsome collection of photos by Peter Beste and interviews by Lance Scott Walker that capture the city’s hip-hop history in full.” Beste and Walker’s subjects and photos speak for themselves, and leafing through Houston Rap is like breaking into a neighborhood and eavesdropping into its conversation…It’s almost like Studs Terkel’s ‘Working,’ but about people in Houston who may or may not have been rappers and musicians: Their lives are in this book.” "What makes True Norwegian Black Metal, a collection of essays and the work of American photographer Peter Beste intriguing is that it resists tabloid urges and lets the images and artists speak for themselves."

The humour is as appealing to kids as to adults, though perhaps for different reasons. This did, however, make me fear that it was going to be one of those kids’ books enjoyed mainly by adults - because you’re laughing at the child character, rather than with her.Ĭlementine could be that kind of book - the title-character, an overly-imaginative third-grader, could easily be labelled with both ADHD and OCD, and I’m sure her principal would love to get her on an ISSP if she’s not already - but it’s not. My parents bought this book for Emma, for Christopher’s birthday (don’t ask) and by the time the kids went to bed that evening, most of the adults in the room had had a look at the book and read a few sentences out loud - it’s just that engaging. But rarely am I impressed enough to add a kids’ book to my list of reviews. You’d think I’d do this more as we certainly have enough of them in the house and I read enough of them aloud. And now for something completely different - I review a children’s book! ![]() |
