He continues to perform many of his poems at poetry slams, festivals, and other venues, and has received praise for the energy and emotion he brings to his work.Ī Spokane/Coeur d’Alene tribal member, Alexie grew up on the Spokane Indian Reservation in Wellpinit, Washington.

Sherman Alexie is a preeminent Native American poet, novelist, performer and filmmaker. ![]() ![]() The convent where Catalina was held prisoner is now a museum. Of course in the deeply conservative Spanish society of the time, such a thing was unthinkable. Her father was an officer in the Spanish army, and from an early age Catalina wanted nothing more than to also be a soldier. The convent was in the town of Donostia (also known as San Sebastian), in the Basque district of Spain. Her aunt was the prioress of the convent, and Catalina’s two sisters were also sent there – not unusual for educating the children of the well-off. Since she was enrolled in a convent as a four year old, it seems unlikely she wasn’t baptised until she was seven. Her autobiography says that she was born in 1585, but records of her baptism give a date of 1592. When this particular legend was born is actually where the confusion starts, as it happens. So fact becomes impossible to distinguish from fiction, and legends are born. ![]() But partially this is because Catalina’s real exploits were so outrageous that people found it difficult to credit them, even though they actually happened. Partially this is because our main source is her “ autobiography”, which reads like an adventure novel and probably was one. ![]() The details of her life, however, are much harder to pin down. ![]() Catalina de Erauso was a real person, that much we can verify. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Whether Mr Emerson is in fact a Stalinist or not, I cannot profess to know. ![]() Although on the surface these ingenious propaganda tracts appeared to be no more than innocent children’s comic papers, it was easy to detect the implied criticism of running dog imperialism in a title such as Dogman and the oblique Stalinist overtones of Committed Comix. ![]() In 1976, Emerson and some fellow members of the proletariat seized control of the Birmingham Arts Lab Press in a brutal and bloody putsch, formed the Ar-Zak publishing empire and began to distribute subversive pamphlets and broadsheets. The Literati scratched their thinning pates and quietly agreed that Mr Emerson was certainly ahead of his time, if not on the wrong planet entirely. Slender volumes in which his works were collected began to appear upon fashionable drawing-room tables between 19, titles ranging from the oddly compelling Zomix Comix to the subtly threatening Adventures Of Mr Spoonbiscut. Looking back upon those early days, it becomes obvious that they have much in common with the classic picture writing of the ancient Sumerians, in that they are almost impossible to understand unless you happen to be six thousand years old and Sumerian, and may be not even then. “His career as a cartoonist commenced in 1973, (prior to which he had been a human being), with the publication of his Large Cow Comix in Birmingham’s alternative Streetpress. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Williams, who introduce each chapter and provide biographical context and quotes gleaned from hundreds of interviews they have conducted. ![]() This book's sampling is selected by Justice Ginsburg and her authorized biographers Mary Hartnett and Wendy W.

Her family did a lot of hiking and Aspen had hiked part of the Pacific Crest Trail before college, so it was only natural that the trail was the place to which she retreated to do her pondering.Ī little background, though, is important. So, let's just acknowledge it here and now: the author was the victim of a crime, a violation, and she did nothing to deserve it, despite what the world told her. ![]() I mentioned the rape up front because it's the central issue and when she mentioned she'd been raped to people, early on, she was blown off or told it was her fault - a common theme amongst friends who've been raped and certainly in news stories. I was on a grand walk hoping to discover my best path forward, my strength, my place in a frightening world. Girl in the Woods is the memoir of a young lady who was raped on her second night of college and how she eventually walked the entire 2,650-mile Pacific Crest Trail from Mexico to Canada. So, I may work my way backwards for a bit. I just finished Girl in the Woods by Aspen Matis, last night, and immediately thought, "I've got to write about this, right now," because I'm at the point that I've read so many books in such a short time span that I'm beginning to have trouble keeping them all straight. ![]() Yes, it's true that I posed Girl in the Woods in the middle of a nandina in my yard (and then came inside scratching). ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() But the two stories are blended together since it’s written in second person. There’s the story of Winnie-the-Pooh and his fictional adventures and then there’s the interruptions and questions from the “real” Christopher Robin. I was surprised at how many writing “rules” this childhood classic breaks and yet it works so well! It’s told in the style of Princess Bride by having a story within a story. The writing really shines when you read it out loud and I enjoyed reading it as much as my kids enjoyed listening to it. ![]() Short and Sweet VersionĪ classic that really shows the charming literalness, innocence, and adorable self-centered logic of childhood.
