![]() ![]() Once upon a time, before Travis or Christian or Gideon, there was Clayton Westmoreland….my first BFF. Lauren: Whitney, My Love is freakin INCREDIBLE!!!! … I’m pretty sure I have Whitney, My Love memorized. I keep saying some those old historicals are worse than some of the dark books out now… ![]() It mustn’t have been a trigger for me cos I can remember loving all of those books without reservation. I can’t remember *that* scene from Whitney My Love (can’t even remember what it was LOL). I’m kind of worried that Maryse won’t like it based on that one scene. ![]() Tessa: * shifts in seat* Whitney My Love is the most popular, but one scene made me SOO angry. Pamela: Whitney My Love – read it twenty years ago and several times since. I’m only 25% in but holy moly it’s over 700 pages long so, I think that’s a nice chunk. Maryse: I’m reading “Whitney, My Love” and I’m loving it. I was craving an emotional-book-uproar, and this sure got me there! People either LOVE it OR hate it, but NOBODY can forget it, and I KNEW I had to read it. Whitney, My Love (The Westmoreland Dynasty Saga Book 1)Ĭonsidered a MUST-read in the historical romance genre, HUGELY loved, and one of the most popular recommendations that has ever come my way.

It reveals how Nick Cave’s life, music, archives, and fictions continue to intertwine, inform and inspire each other. Behind each work is an equally fascinating artistic process not originally intended for public view the exhibition opens up the innermost parts of Cave’s creative universe and offers a story of its own. The exhibition invites visitors to follow Cave’s development as an artist – and to gain insight into the overarching themes of his work, his working methods and the many sources of inspiration underpinning it all. Nick Cave’s body of work encompasses a wide range of media and modes of expression, with narrative forms at the heart. Created for The Black Diamond of The Royal Danish Library in Copenhagen, and with Cave as a co-curator and co-designer, the exhibition is an unorthodox fusion of biography, autobiography, and fiction, asking what shapes our lives and makes us who we are. ‘Stranger Than Kindness: The Nick Cave Exhibition’ is an unprecedented look into the creative world of musician, storyteller, and cultural icon Nick Cave. With more than 300 objects collected or created by Nick Cave through six decades of his creative and private life brought together in large-scale installations, the exhibition is an artwork in itself. Gucci sponsors a special exhibition in celebration of the life and work of Nick Cave. ![]() ![]() ![]() The book overflows with rich descriptions of customs, scenery, rituals and nature that evoke a lost world and often rise to the level of art. Dalby, who has written two books of nonfiction, "Kimono" and "Geisha," which recount her experiences as the only Western woman to become a geisha, sets herself a daunting task here: to tell Murasaki's own story through a work of "literary archaeology" that incorporates not only a fragment of the ancient author's actual journal but also hundreds of her "waka," the short, haikulike message poems that seemed to flow as freely as e-mail among those in Murasaki's circle.Īs a work of literary archaeology or, more fittingly, anthropology, "The Tale of Murasaki" is a stunning success. ![]() Liza Dalby's "The Tale of Murasaki" imagines the life of Genji's creator, Murasaki Shikibu, in a fictional memoir that takes the form of a poetic diary. "The Tale of Genji," the 11th century Japanese literary work considered by many to be the world's first novel, boasts an irresistible hero: a sweet-smelling, sensitive Shining Prince who woos and wins every lady he meets. ![]() |
