MY REVIEW:
I found Amy's book to be clever as good as tools of it were utterly funny. we do consider the photos are good finished as good as the sections do have it easy to decide what partial we need to do "research" in. we additionally found it wasn't the the single lay examination as although it is utterly enjoyable, we could usually stick with it the small during the time. we hold we am more of the account reader as good as this was the bit disjointed for me. Although we did like what we read, there were tools which we could have finished without. we really most enjoy Amy's humerous entertainment live or upon television, though in celebration of the mass it, the small went the long approach for me. we do consider it is critical which although Amy says it is the book created for immature kids upon up, which this is an adult book as good as not the single we wish your 7 year aged thumbing through. Reading SIMPLE TIMES the bit during the time, was fun as good as we can burst around in it so it does have it an beguiling laugh from time to time. It would have the funny coffee table book assuming we don't have the home open to immature children.

Poetry puzzles

Who is Ozymandias? Why is Coleridge's Lime-Tree Bower his prison? And what is the proper spelling of The Waste Land? The solving of a poem's puzzles is one poetry's greatest pleasures In the late 1990s the indefatigable John Sutherland produced a series of entertaining books about puzzles in fiction (Why is Frankenstein's monster yellow? Where does Fanny Hill keep her contraceptives? Who gets what in Heathcliff's will?). The books were initially linked to reissues of novels in the Oxford World's Classics series, and I was struck at the time how beautifully these little inquisitions of Sutherland's, often on apparently absurd or marginal issues in the text, got readers reading again, with attention and interest. What Sutherland was doing, in effect, was smuggling serious literary criticism into an apparently superficial form of writing. Perhaps, in a sense, he was even re-inventing literary criticism. In this era of academic theorising and the downsizing of m...

Architects at this time picked up where they left off following the suppression of the avant-garde by Stalin in the early 1930s, and were able to capitalise on advances made in engineering in the interim period, producing buildings with enormous in...
