![]() ![]() It is not simply a collection of poems – it is a collection of poems written by a very diverse group of poets, sorted after vague feelings (like “mother” which is not really a feeling at all and “hunger” which definitely can be) and placed in the cross sections of said feelings (combine these two into “mother/hungry” and suddenly you have a feeling you might be a bit unsure of what actually means until you read the poems and never spend another minute wondering). Set Me On Fire – a poem for every feeling is a poetry anthology edited and annotated by London based poet Ella Risbridger, and it is one of the most interesting anthologies I’ve read in a while. I might not go shouting from the rooftops just yet, but I desperately want to break down some walls and do a few small yells at least. ![]() ![]() In his novel The Fault in our Stars, John Green writes that “sometimes, you read a book fills you with this weird evangelical zeal, and you become convinced that the shattered world will never be put back together unless and until all living humans read the book,” and wonderfully dramatic and rather intense as this notion may be, I have just read one of those books and perfectly get the feeling. ![]()

![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Even those unfamiliar with Korean food have likely heard of kimchi, which is now sold in mainstream grocery stores and makes appearances on hot dogs, in fried rice, and more. The book is divided into 10 sections with subjects like snacks and street food, cocktails, and, of course, kimchi. "You can eat the sides for every meal and add them to anything you're already eating - even pasta," Ha says. Typical banchan include spicy bokchoy ( cheonggyeongche muchim), bean sprout salad ( kongnamul), and pan-fried tofu ( dubu buchim). Having Dengki on each page is like seeing Microsoft's detested Clippy transformed from a talking paperclip into your older sister's cool best friend.įor those dabbling in Korean food for the first time, Ha recommends trying stir-fried meat dishes, the one-pot chili chicken soup, or the vegetable side dishes known as banchan that usually take only 15 minutes to make. Ha even created a cartoon narrator named Dengki to talk readers through each recipe. This charming cookbook uses brightly colored illustrations to break down the process of making dishes like acorn jelly salad ( dotorimuk) or kimchi stew ( kimchi jjigae).

![]() ![]() ![]() Kate is both deeply insightful and curiously funny, although perhaps not always intentionally. ![]() It was just as shocking to see how much things have changed as it was to see how little things had changed at times too. The glimpse into higher education was absolutely fascinating. Kate still has to teach, research and attend to her administrative duties, and I was as fascinated with the state of academia in the 1960's as I was in the mystery. My thoughts: I instantly enjoyed Kate as a character: "As is the unfortunate habit of the literary person, she already imagined herself retelling this extraordinary event." Although in the Last Analysis is a mystery, the mystery is not always the focus of the novel. Kate never doubts his innocence, and she throws herself into the case when she believes the police aren't considering alternative suspects. When Janet is found dead on Emmanuel's couch, he is the prime suspect. When a student, Janet Harrison, of hers asks Kate for a recommendation for a psychoanalyst, Kate recommends her dear friend Emmanuel. The basics: Kate Fansler is a literature professor at Columbia. When Rose City Reader reviewed the second mystery in the series, The James Joyce Murder, I was intrigued enough to try this series. The backstory: In the Last Analysis is the first mystery in the Kate Fansler series written under the pseudonym Amanda cross. ![]() |
