Reviews In Brief / Strange But True, Marianne Rogoff

Marianne Rogoff

John Searles says, "My writing is sort of Sidney Sheldon meets Anne Tyler. " In "Strange But True," the mysteries are domestic, the characters from families blown apart by events that change lives in instants. Yet the world remains mundane, even comic.

Reviews In Brief / World Famous Love Acts, Marianne Rogoff May 2004

Reviews In Brief / World Famous Love Acts, Marianne Rogoff

Marianne Rogoff

Brian Leung's writing is exquisite, deceptively plain, deeply felt and spiritually high, with dead-on depictions of the world as it is and people coping such as they can. He doesn't limit himself to particular character types but eyes all kinds with compassion, true empathy and bursts of clairvoyance.

'Willa Cather’S ‘River Of Silver Sound’: Woman As Ecosystem In The Song Of The Lark, Matthew Sivils Jan 2004

'Willa Cather’S ‘River Of Silver Sound’: Woman As Ecosystem In The Song Of The Lark, Matthew Sivils

Matthew Sivils

Willa Cather loved the Southwest. The landscapes and cu ltural history of the area held a prominent place in both her fiction and in her own creative consciousness.1 As Judith Fryer points out, after Cather visited New Mexico and Arizona in 1912, she became so enamored with the region that she returned many times over the fol lowing decade (41). During this period Cather published a novel heavily inspired by her affection for the Southwestern landscape-The Song of the Lark.
