Dogland http://qwertyranch.blogspot.com/2007/07/dogland.html |
Will Shetterly ( - ) http://qwertyranch.blogspot.com/ |
Will Shetterly is a Minnesota gubernatorial candidate and author of many novels
The floridian magical realism of Dogland follows the Nix family as they move across the country to create DOGLAND and the US moves into the turbulent sixties
Though the novels setting in a tourist attraction featuring hundreds of dog breeds might seem pure whimsy, it is apparently autobiographical.

Barnaby Rudge |
Charles Dickens (1812 - 1870) |
Blackmail, kidnapping, revenge Barnaby Rudge is part suspenseful mystery and part historical novel. Based on the Gordon Riots of June 1780, which culminated in the storming and destruction of the Newgate Prison, we recount these events through the eyes of the kind but simple-minded title character, Barnaby Rudge. Powerful, gripping read. |

Crime and Punishment |
Fyodor Dostoyevsky (1821 - 1881) |
Raskolnikov is a desperately impoverished young student and intellectual who robs and murders a moneylender to ease his own financial problems and, he rationalises, to better the world by expelling it of her evil doings. However, after he falls ill, he is eventually burdened by his past actions and seeks salvation. Was it justifiable homicide? Captivating and often disturbing, this novel explores this and other profound life concepts. Crime and Punishment is considered to be the one of the most influential Russian novels ever written. Read it and see why. |
