![]() ![]() I read all three books in the March series in one go. ![]() With its final installment, Book Three, due out in August, the series could be both a necessary guide to the past and a warning about the present. His graphic-novel series, March, created by Lewis, his staffer Andrew Aydin, and the award-winning graphic novelist Nate Powell, has been a surprisingly good and critical part of that work. Lewis is working to ensure that the hard truths about race in America and his own legacy aren’t erased. One person who is well-versed in these kinds of racial politics is Representative John Lewis, whose career as a black civil-rights icon and renown as the last living speaker at the famed 1963 March on Washington are now the stuff of legend. Many of those ideas make the Trumpian vow to “Make America Great Again” sound more like a threat than a promise. ![]() Whether it’s an all-white breakout panel promoting unity, Representative Steve King laying out a defense of white supremacy on live television, or the routine dog-whistle criminalization of immigrants and black people that has been a Republican Party trademark for years, race and racism have been central to the theater in Cleveland. It’s not one of the official daily themes at the Republican National Convention, but at the heart of every pledge to make the country great or safe or “one” again has been the issue of race. ![]() ![]() ![]() Eustace Clarence liked animals, especially beetles, if they were dead and pinned on a card. ![]() In their house there was very little furniture and very few clothes on beds and the windows were always open. They were vegetarians, non-smokers and teetotalers and wore a special kind of underclothes. They were very up-to-date and advanced people. He didn’t call his Father and Mother “Father” and “Mother,” but Harold and Alberta. ![]() I can’t tell you how his friends spoke to him, for he had none. His parents called him Eustace Clarence and masters called him Scrubb. One THE PICTURE IN THE BEDROOM THERE WAS A BOY CALLED EUSTACE Clarence Scrubb, and he almost deserved it.

If her mother heard her say that, Emilia’s hair would be the least of her concerns. Of course, Emilia privately believed that idiots had been running the Etrusian Empire for hundreds of years. ![]() They won’t pick me,” she said, as if this were a conversation and not something she’d repeated in the locked room of her mind. Shortening the reins, she petted the dragon’s neck. ![]() Chara’s grumble reverberated in Emilia’s bones. Maybe she really should wear it in a plait, as her mother suggested every other day. Salt-choked wind tautened her dragon’s wings with a snap and tumbled her heavy red hair into her face. Frothing waves surged against the cliffs so violently she swore the spray speckled her cheek, even at this height. Emilia of the Aurun considered this on dragonback as she hovered one hundred feet above the rocky coastline. One day after the emperor had died and been eaten, the call went out to select his successor. ![]() ![]() The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe by C.S.

Set in Middle Earth – a world full of hobbits, elves, orcs, goblins, and wizards – The Lord of the Rings will take you on an unbelievable adventure. ![]() Tolkien’s fantasy epic is one of the top must-read books out there. Although the year 1984 has long since passed, the prophecy of a society controlled by fear and lies is arguably more relevant now than ever. 1984 by George Orwellġ984 tells the futuristic story of a dystopian, totalitarian world where free will and love are forbidden. ![]() ![]() When faced with an obstacle, many people might quit, or spend energy complaining about it. Rather than passively enduring suffering, a true Stoic evaluates the situation in a realistic and pragmatic way, then attempts to solve the problem. ![]() ![]() Holiday explains that while the Stoic philosophy does indeed discourage pointless displays of potentially distracting emotion, it is, in fact action and results-oriented. In popular English usage, "stoic" has taken on the meaning of being without emotion, or even passive. (Don't worry, references to dead languages are hard to find in Obstacle.) They called it premeditatio malorum, or premeditation of evils. Members suggest reasons for failure, with the hope that by enumerating them at the start they can be avoided.Īlthough the practice of conducting a premortem meeting seems like a recent innovation, Holiday points out that this concept dates back to the stoics. It dives into the "premortem" concept - before you roll out a campaign or project, the responsible group meets to discuss why it failed. CMOs and business leaders of all types will find the chapter titled, "Anticipation (Thinking Negatively)," relevant. ![]() ![]() And yet Liv doesn’t want their past to get in the way of a possible reconciliation. ![]() There are so many questions, so many emotions that flood to the surface after seeing her father for the first time in years. So when Liv suddenly receives a postcard from her father explaining that National Geographic is funding a documentary about his theories on Atlantis-and will she fly out to Greece and help?-Liv jumps at the opportunity.īut when she arrives to gorgeous Santorini, things are a little…awkward. What Liv does remember, though, is their shared love for Greek myths and the lost city of Atlantis. Liv Varanakis doesn’t have a lot of fond memories of her father, which makes sense-he fled to Greece when she was only eight. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() This kind of reductive approach has had a good innings, but I have never subscribed to it. Origin of Species is well worth the read, but no one can argue it isn’t more interesting in context, from Malthus and Lyell to Wallace to Spencer, as well as a consideration of the very good challenges to Darwin’s theory of natural selection thrown up by both exiled Russian biologists and amateur women naturalists in the United States.Īnd biographies remind us that works of ideas and works of art are made by actual individual human beings, rather than being an agglomeration of “texts”, with the human agency of their existence being disregarded as at best an irrelevance. Why read books about great thinkers? Why not try and read what these "great thinkers" have written? Or maybe read both.?īecause a lot of times the context is just as interesting and sometimes more interesting than just the ideas standing alone. ![]() ![]() ![]() Kids Will Be Kids, whether Human, Angel, or Demon ![]() ![]() Can they put their differences aside and work together to solve the Knights Templars' cipher?
