Guy Montag is a fireman who believes he is content in his job, which, in the oppressive future American society depicted in Fahrenheit 451, consists of burning books and the possessions of book owners. ![]() ![]() Then a fascinating conversation was struck up on the child_lit listserve (an email group I have belonged to for more than 10 years), with many members expressing anxiety about the forth-coming film. ![]() ![]() And suddenly, for some reason, I got on board with the buzz and when my good friend Nicola emailed me and said-hey, let’s go and see The Hunger Games-I suddenly became very excited indeed. I’ve only read the first of the trilogy-which I thoroughly enjoyed, despite having some misgivings about some of the world-building-and while the news I heard about the film all sounded good to me (casting, the fact that author Suzanne Collins was involved in the screenplay) I wasn’t all that excited about seeing it. ![]() I won’t pretend to be the world’s biggest Hunger Games fan. ![]() ![]() First published 45 years ago by Christopher Alexander and team, this book has influenced tens of thousands of architects and urban planners who credit it with giving them tools to make buildings and towns that operate at human scale. Does the house have a hat? An obvious central entrance? A transition zone between public and private? All these are eternal patterns that have worked in the past and will make a place better. Each pattern is illustrated with exemplary examples and photos, and sociological evidence from studies of real places.Įmploy this book to design attractive, timeless buildings (or towns) by combining as many of these patterns as can be consistently contained in one project. Each pattern is what computer programmers call a heuristic: a compressed principle that can be unpacked in many ways. For instance, pattern number 167: “Balconies and porches less than 6 feet deep are hardly ever used.” Therefore make balconies wider than 6 feet. ![]() This 1,000-page encyclopedia contains two hundred design patterns found in the buildings and cities that people love.

If he thought they were so bad or dangerous, why didn’t he immediately report them in an effort to save lives? Didn’t he have an obligation to do so? No, because he knew they were good and proper answers. “Bob Woodward had my quotes for many months. Trump, who has regularly played down the threat of a virus which has now killed almost 200,000 in the US, has justified his stance as not wanting to cause panic. ![]() ![]() The journalist and author’s revelation on Wednesday, ahead of his next book’s release, that Trump knew how dangerous the virus was so early on has prompted outrage against the president, but also raised an ethical question: shouldn’t Woodward have immediately made this public? ![]() ![]() ![]() MARTIN: We mentioned in the intro soft boiled eggs. MARTIN: I think it's probably safe to say food is far more than just nutritional fuel for you.ĬHRISTENSEN: You could call it an obsession if you wanted to. There can be no hiding or sublimation when you're chewing a mouthful of food so good it makes you swoon. To eat passionately is to allow the world in. Good and terrible, overwhelming and miniscule. And to live fully is to be awake and responsive to complexities and truths. If you're seized with terrible, unprintable rage towards someone you love, a ripe, velvety avocado can send you over the edge with its innocent bystander meekness. ![]() KATE CHRISTENSEN: (Reading) Food can do many things, but it can't substitute for sex. It's called "Blue Plate Special." And in it, she includes recipes and talks about the foods that connect her to different chapters of her own life. Soft boiled eggs and buttered toast - it may not be something you need to follow a recipe to make and not perhaps the most memorable dish you've ever had, but soft boiled eggs and buttered toast have the power to connect author Kate Christensen to another time and place. ![]() ![]() The Wind Done Gone is the story of one woman who must make peace in her own heart with the question of slavery and the resulting treatment that she received from both her white parent and her black parent.Ĭynara lives in Atlanta not far from the home that her lover, R., once shared with his wife and Cynara's half-sister, Other. ![]() Cynara was sold away from the family at a very young age, but managed to make her way back into the life of half-sister, Scarlett O'Hara, through their mutual lover, Rhett Butler.
