She left for a year and came back a different girl. But then she went and screwed everything up. Engaging, challenging, bullying her-it's the last part of me that feels anything human. We used to be friends, but I found out that I couldn't trust her or anyone else. ![]() But none of them can hurt me, because I don't care about anything or anyone. Some people hate me for it, while others are scared of me. Traveling between fury and indifference with no stops in between. Have you ever been so angry that hitting things felt good?

![]() ![]() I really enjoyed watching through Ivy’s perspective the opulence of this place, even though it’s years past its prime. To start with, the setting of this place is like if Downton Abbey were rundown and possessed by a creepy ghost. In her more lucid moments, she wonders if this place is haunted, and becomes determined to discover what is really going on here. ![]() Her own mind seems unreliable, and so do the people around her. But the longer she lingers in those old halls, the more she suspects that there is something cursed about this place. She moves to Blackwood Abbey, her inheritance, and decides to restore its grand library. So when she learns the shocking news that she is the last surviving relative of a nobleman, she is eager to start a new life in the northern parts of England. The country is still reeling from the effects of the Great War, even a few years later, and Ivy herself is grappling with the grief of losing her family during that time. ![]() In The Last Heir to Blackwood Library, Ivy Radcliffe is scraping by in London. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() When a grammarian makes people stick to certain grammatical rules, this is called "prescriptive grammar." This was also the period in which a grammarian named Robert Lowth condemned the double-negative, a construction often used by Shakespeare, but now deemed grammatically incorrect (as though English were equivalent to algebra!) We can thank the 18th century (Enlightenment period) for many of our more restrictive grammar rules of today for instance, "lay"/lie," "between you and I," "between/among," "different from" versus "different than," etc. ![]() Also, Middle English grew out of a lack of regulation/caring on the part of the Norman invaders, who kept speaking their own version of French while the English middle/lower classes spoke a rapidly evolving (and unchecked) form of English. While we "borrowed" a lot of words from the Norman French, we adapted our syntax to the Scandinavian model, so that our language became much simpler in terms of inflection compared to say, German or Latin. In fact, the Danish invasions of England prior to the Norman Conquest probably contributed a lot more to our loss of inflection (word endings) than the French influence on our language ever did. Old English conjugated them as "hie," "hiera," "him." "they," "their," and "them," our plural pronouns, were a Scandinavian (specifically Danish) import. This is a fantastic, highly detailed overview of the history of the English language in which I learned some surprising things, such as: ![]() ![]() ![]() As far as possible, it is a technical and stylistic replica of how that production might have sounded had its recording survived. 11:15am TODAY on TalkingPicsTV The 1952 Mystery film Bombay Waterfront (aka Paul Temple Returns) directed by MacleanRogers from a screenplay by FrancisDurbridge adapted from his 1942 radio serial Paul Temple Intervenes JohnBentley DinahSheridan PeterGawthorne.

With a synopsis that played up a more fantastical story in general, I thought I would be swept away in the imaginative world and interesting characters, but just wasn’t swept away by anything. Not saying it’s a bad book, just that it wasn’t for me. 2/5 Stars 232 Pages, Published December 1st 2020 by Reading HarborĪ story of a teen romance with a twist, this book wasn’t for me. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() The most interesting thing, and ultimately the winning thing, about Ms. Hugo Whittier, in Kate Christensen's 2004 novel, "The Epicure's Lament," thought of little other than food, cigarettes, sex and his smoldering misanthropy. The pleasures of the body are now omnipresent in literature. The first scene in "The Sun Also Rises" takes place just after dinner. We meet Leopold Bloom in "Ulysses" at breakfast, and Daisy Buchanan in "The Great Gatsby" over drinks. Eating-like sex-became a key element in the Modernist quest for verisimilitude. "It is part of the novelist's convention not to mention soup and salmon and ducklings," she wrote, "as if soup and salmon and ducklings were of no importance whatsoever, as if nobody ever smoked a cigar or drank a glass of wine." Clearly much has changed since her time, when quite a bit was considered improper for high-minded prose. In "A Room of One's Own," Virginia Woolf noted that novelists tended to depict luncheon parties by recounting what was wittily said or wisely done, not what was eaten. ![]() ![]() ![]() She has a dark sensuality that cannot be hidden or denied, though she tries to accomplish both. Olivia is young, beautiful, na�ve and willful to a fault. ![]() His name is Caleb, though he demands to be called Master. Blindfolded and bound, there is only a calm male voice to welcome her. Eighteen-year-old Olivia Ruiz has just woken up in a strange place. If Caleb is to get close enough to strike, he must become the very thing he abhors and kidnap a beautiful girl to train her to be all that he once was.

For twelve years he has immersed himself in the world of pleasure slaves searching for the one man he holds ultimately responsible. Kidnapped as a young boy and sold into slavery by a power-hungry mobster, he has thought of nothing but vengeance.

What were those engineers saying now after learning the news? They'd likely think twice before making such audacious claims again. The churning waters of the icy Atlantic bubbled around the remains of the Titanic, as the ship sank farther and farther beneath the ocean's surface. Tell that to the over two thousand passengers and crew who had either already lost their lives or were fighting at that moment to keep them. That was an understatement if he ever heard one. ![]() ![]() "Not exactly the turn of events we were expecting, is it?" he managed to say, his voice strained and weak.Īaron could only muster derision at Conrad's words. "Don't you die on me."Ī wan smile found its way to Conrad's pale lips, and he opened his eyes to mere slits. He applied more pressure to the wound, but the blood flow showed no signs of lessening. "Don't you give up, Conrad." Aaron glanced down at his friend. He clutched the blanket around his shoulders and closed his eyes. His gaze traveled across the frigid waters into the almost black night, a darkness interrupted only by the sight of the sinking wreckage that had been their ship.
