It is not popular fiction, as perhaps most of his books are. Stephen King’s epic post-apocalyptic narrative is, without a doubt, great literature. ![]() Another part is that it’s just so long and there is so much to talk about here. Part of this is because it’s difficult to write a review and contribute something to a book that has become so monumentally huge. I have a confession to make: I don’t really know how to start writing a review about The Stand. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() This event is cosponsored by the Mira and Ajay Shingal Center for Dharma Studies, the Center for Swedenborgian Studies, and the Women's Studies in Religion program, and is cohosted by the Center for the Arts & Religion.

Sewell sold her masterpiece to Jarrold and Sons in 1877 for a single payment of £20. Though she was spirited, the Sewells loved her and considered her one of the family. Sewell biographers believe that the title character was based on Bess, a spunky horse owned by her family. ![]() She started Black Beauty when she was 51, and it was her first and only publication. SEWELL WASN'T PUBLISHED UNTIL SHE WAS 57 YEARS OLD.Īnna honed her writing skills by helping her mother edit her books, but she didn't get her own book published until she was 57.

And the truly terrible thing about Blackout is that, for a few shining moments, it manages to be all these things. A political thriller about a conspiracy to conceal the truth behind a deadly pandemic should be tense. A book set in a post-apocalyptic zombie universe should be fast-paced and gripping. It took me a few days, because I had trouble gaining traction. ![]() ![]() I was lucky enough to read this in electronic form, albeit a PDF of a print version that was apparently 630 pages or so. You know what is? Making your book too long because you have pages upon pages where nothing is happening. This in and of itself is not a cardinal sin. There's no question that Grant is trying hard or that she has a story to tell, but what she has produced here leaves much to be desired. My opinion of the Newsflesh series has much in common with another very popular science-fiction series, The Hunger Games: each successive book has been less satisfying and less coherent. Georgia and Shaun Mason are reunited to kick zombie butt one last time and fight back against the government corruption that has put the entire world at risk. ![]() All the mysteries are cleared up, all the questions answered.
