New Review: The Discomfort of Evening by Marieke Lucas Rijneveld

man this sounds like a book by bataille, shit's crazy; great review though

I read Bataille's Story of the Eye many years ago, but nothing else of his. I can see why you'd make the comparison, but this book isn't really erotic in that way, and what I described comes more in the way of mundane cruelty, curiousity or despair, all told through the eye of a child. Despite how it sounds, its really remarkably understated for its subject matter.

You tend to focus on the kid's grief and need to understand death and what is happening to her family. It's a really skilfully written book.

New Review: The Invention of Hugo Cabret by Brian Selznick

This looks beautiful! I really enjoyed both the Scorsese film and the charming little Melies film that it is based on. However, I can't ever seem to watch the latter without also thinking of the music video for Tonight, Tonight by The Smashing Pumpkins or the old Victorian Papers Catalogue. Thank you for sharing! ♥

Oh! And this piece of art by someone dear to me: https://bit.ly/3j7XGnW

All three Selznick books are incredible pieces of art with fascinating topics from the past woven into their contemporary stories. I loved the movie, too, although I reviewed The Marvels for this website. Victoria reviewed Hugo Cabret. Both are great, as is Wonderstruck. I read that one before I started this site, so it's been passed over unless someone else does it.

I just watched the music video. I don't listen to much music and I hadn't seen this before. The look is obviously inspired by George Melies. O course the name on the ship atthe end is a dead giveaway. Thanks for sharing. Loved your friends art too!

Hi there. I saw you're in the thick of a Tom Baker/Doctor Who run and thought you might be interested in this, if you hadn't crossed it already: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C-v85qklHqw. It's an episode of Have I Got News For You with Baker guest hosting. Not always as wholesome as in Doctor Who but he's on cracking form.

I've been reading through the blog archive and wow! many of the thoughts expressed really speak to me. for example, the recent "What Is A Relationship?" piece - finding that balance, accepting ourselves and others while still voicing our needs and values can be challenging, but that's the work of relationships! really looking forward to clicking around the site and reading more.

I did a film theory course with John Tulloch who wrote a book on the classic Dr Who. It included the episode Creature from the Pit which we had to do a Marxist analysis for. Tulloch later was a victim in the London bombing and wrote a book about it. Tom Baker is still the best. Douglas Adams was script editor during Baker’s tenure.

Wasn’t sure if you knew about Adams. Thought you might be interested. Can give you details about the book if you’re interested.

hey gang! big update on the homepage today to catch you up on a few things, plus a new page listing some of my fave audio dramas here: https://thedigitaldiarist.neocities.org/listening/audio-drama/index.html

Big update indeed! Is it a turbo boost gained by insights provided by pondering over that "wanting to do nothing/not wanting to do anything" dilemma? 🤔😊

thedigitaldiarist 4 years ago

that's as good a theory as any!

Thoroughly enjoyed the first episode of "Good For All" :^) Bravo! So glad to hear you're finding positive ways to counterbalance the negativity. I haven't really been able to get into audio dramas before, but have always wanted to! Looking forward to exploring your recommendations - thanks!

ahh thanks Seán! I so appreciate you listening. and for audio dramas, I definitely think the podcast The Truth is a good place to begin. the episodes are typically <30min, the sound is great, and the stories are quite varied! plenty to choose from :)
