THE STARTER WIFEBY GIGI LEVANGIE GRAZERABOUT THE BOOK: IN HOLLYWOOD, THEY LIKE TO LOVE 'EM AND LEAVE 'EM. THE STARTER WIFE... A scathingly funny novel from a bestselling writer of Maneater! When her husband, Kenny, dumps her by cell phone (!) mere months before to their ten-year wedding anniversary, Gracie Pollock is dazed as well as confused. Though life as a mother of a semi-famous Hollywood studio senior manager mostly left her yawning, Gracie regularly believed she as well as Kenny were different from alternative Hollywood couples. She never thought she'd be a starter wife.
But Kenny has upgraded, as well as with images of his new pop tartlet girlfriend everywhere Gracie turns, she seeks refuge at her most appropriate friend's Malibu mansion. Then a puzzling hunk saves her from drowning as well as unexpected drowning in her sorrows seems similar to a waste of time. And when she takes up with Kenny's boss, a single of Hollywood's better-known Lotharios, she discovers which may be life after divorce -- Hollywood-style -- isn't so bad after all!

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...

CCCP: Cosmic Communist Constructions Photographed by Frdric Chaubin review

These images of Soviet architecture from the Brezhnev era are simply out of this world Soviet brutalism is not something traditionally thought of as beautiful, but Frdric Chaubin's stunning photographs, published under the facetious title CCCP: Cosmic Communist Constructions Photographed , should go some way to changing this. Fascinated by the massive scale of Brezhnev-era architecture, the French photographer has toured the former Soviet Union since 2003, in search of dramatic examples of these sculptural buildings. The 1970s-1990s was a strong period for Soviet architecture, especially in the peripheral republics, where outlandish designs were an expression of the striving for independence, an early inkling of the break-up of the USSR. 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...
