It is that time of year: spooky book season. My love for horror may not be as obvious my love for romance and cozy mystery, but I do enjoy it very much. In the last few months especially, I have found myself drawn to it increasingly. I’m not exactly sure why—maybe it is just the

In English, translated literature has a stuffy reputation. Here, where translated literature occupies a place at the margins, readers often think of it as exclusively highbrow. It’s “too serious.” Or it’s “too literary.” It’s “for eggheads.” And, moreover, it’s “like eating your vegetables.” Why, then, would we want to force this stuff on unsuspecting children??

There’s no shortage of movies based on books these days. It seems like every time a new movie or TV show comes out, I find out it was based on a book. As a snob, I prefer to read the book first so that I can snottily point out all the ways the adaptations deviate

While Jane Austen is mostly known for writing beautiful, thoughtful romances, Austen’s authorship is also marked by wit, a critique of British society in the 18th century, and of course, her expressive arguments against the patriarchy.

The pandemic has reshuffled a lot of decks. Jobs that used to seem stable are now less available or appealing. If you’re contemplating a career shift, you’re not alone. While you’re at it, who says you have to be stuck in an office or a driver’s seat for the next 40 years? As long as

It struck me not long ago that B-list comics villains, especially those with roots in the DC mythos, have enjoyed a renaissance since the advent of The CW’s Arrowverse.
