Blink: The Power of Thinking Without Thinking967 reviews
Malcolm Gladwell

Back Bay Books, 2007

blink...and then it's gone

There's not much substance to this book. Rather than being a resource of information, it is merely a book of examples. There is no broad takeaway you can gather from it after reading except to say perhaps that many of our decisions are based on split-second thoughts. But did you really need to read ...

Lynne Truss

Gotham, 2006

Truss Comes Back Fighting the Extinction of Etiquette

+ Anti Social.

Embittered albeit bemused finger-wagging appears to be author Lynne Truss' specialty, and I have to say I find her newest little tome on the global lack of respect and good manners even more cutting than her bad grammar colonic, Eats, Shoots & Leaves: The Zero Tolerance Approach to Punctuation. ...

The Penelopiad: The Myth of Penelope and Odysseus (Myths, The)19 reviews
Margaret Atwood

Canongate U.S., 2006

Delightfully Cheeky

+ Light, satirical and racy

Margaret Atwood can write in many tones, but cheeky has to be her best. She made the story of the long-suffering Penelope and the insufferable Odysseus a delight to read, with character revelations poor old Homer couldn't possibly imagine and a chorus of maltreated maids that not only provided ...
