White Corridor: A Peculiar Crimes Unit Mystery (Peculiar Crimes Unit Mysteries)

Christopher Fowler

Bantam, 2008

Definitive British Mystery
If Ken Bruen's east London crime novels featuring the brutal and boorish Inspector Brant are literature as rugby, then Christopher Fowler's mysteries of the aging Brant and May detective duo are symphonies. Both entertaining, but Bruen is jarring and violent where Fowler is refined, cultured, and subtle. Fowler writes the classic British mystery: dryly humorous, understated, unadorned, and ...

Hallways, Corridors, and Staircases: Developing the Decorative & Practical Potential of Every Part of Your ...
Leslie Geddes-Brown

Ryland Peters & Small, 2002

Hallways, Corridors, and Staircases Houses and apartments have traditionally been seen as a series of rooms-but, when it comes to interior design, there is a great deal more to be considered. For example, the entrance hall is the introduction to everything that follows, making it crucial in setting the scene. Corridors and landings may have been built to give access to the main spaces, but they offer wonderful opportunities for storage and ...

Corridor Cultures: Mapping Student Resistance at an Urban School (Qualitative Studies in Psychology)
Maryann Dickar

NYU Press, 2008

For many students, the classroom is not the central focus of school. The school's corridors and doorways are areas largely given over to student control, and it is here that they negotiate their cultural identities and status among their peer groups. The flavor of this ?corridor culture? tends to reflect the values and culture of the surrounding community. Based on participant observation in a racially segregated high school in New York City, ...

Echoes Down the Corridor: Collected Essays, 1944-2000

Arthur Miller

Penguin (Non-Classics), 2001

history coming alive
I read his first essay about Brooklyn on the NYT books site and had to buy the book. Miller captures the past while avoiding nostalgia and bitterness towards the present, a very hard trick to master. The Depression really comes alive in his books, as does the immediacy of the Communist witch hunt. For someone in her 20s, it's hard to imagine how visceral the fear must have been, but Miller ...
