Review for A Number by Caryl Churchill
Posted : 18 years, 3 months ago on 31 July 2006 12:47 (A review of Caryl Churchill (Routledge Modern and Contemporary Dramatists))So I couldn't find an entry for 'A Number'...so I threw it in here. A play about cloning, with some angsty dialogue between a father and his son(s). Doesn't make for much excitement.

Is That It? by Bob Geldof
Posted : 18 years, 3 months ago on 31 July 2006 12:39 (A review of Is That It?)One of the great rock autobiographies, Geldof's book is tenfolds more brilliant than the music he produced. An intelligent, interesting man who gives a new spin on his life of sex, drugs, rock'n'roll - and social justice. He's like Bono, but with a dick.

Hamlet by Shakespeare
Posted : 18 years, 3 months ago on 31 July 2006 12:35 (A review of Hamlet)Shakespeare's finest moment? Possibly - one of the greatest tales of indecision and of the corruption of the family unit.

The Cider House Rules by John Irving
Posted : 18 years, 3 months ago on 31 July 2006 12:33 (A review of The Cider House Rules)Outstanding piece of Liberalism, if anything it motivates you to get out of the working class. Well written, hilarious work - highly recommended.

The Handmaid's Tale by Atwood
Posted : 18 years, 3 months ago on 31 July 2006 12:30 (A review of The Handmaid's Tale)Atwood, the Canadian bitch she is, decided it would be a provocative idea to create the feminist '1984'. A terrible read, pointless to the tee. Avoid this lauded shit-pie.

A Doll
Posted : 18 years, 3 months ago on 31 July 2006 12:27 (A review of A Doll's House)The bitch can't pay back a loan. Who cares? I wish I hadn't studied this in school.

Jude the Obscure by Thomas Hardy
Posted : 18 years, 3 months ago on 31 July 2006 12:25 (A review of Jude the Obscure (Penguin Classics))Times were hard for the Victorians, too. You don't have money, you can't go to school. Things haven't changed, have they? A good novel by one of English literature's leading realists.

1984
Posted : 18 years, 3 months ago on 31 July 2006 12:21 (A review of 1984)The dystopian unmasterpiece everyone swears by. If you've only read what's been given to you in High School, this is your favorite, isn't it?

Siddhartha by Hesse
Posted : 18 years, 3 months ago on 31 July 2006 12:20 (A review of Siddhartha)An enjoyable introduction to Buddhism. I would recommend reading this for pleasure over studying it in class - it's easy to destry while scrounging for meaning.

Velvet Goldmine
Posted : 18 years, 3 months ago on 30 July 2006 11:07 (A review of Velvet Goldmine)Glam rock - as done by Christian Bale, Jason Rhys Meyers, and Ewan McGregor. The best part is the music - scenes of with Stooges, Lou Reed, and Eno tracks are done wonderfully. Note - Bowie hated the script so he vetoed the right for any of his music to appear in the film - maybe because 'Brian Slade', a sex and coke fiend, is pretty much based on Ziggy-era Bowie. Not that great of a story, but the acting is pretty solid (it's Bale, of course it's solid). Recommended to the sexually confused and / or Bowie fans.
