The Readers of Broken Wheel Recommend by Katarina Bivald
The Readers of Broken Wheel Recommend by Katarina Bivald (2013) French title : La bibliothèque des cœurs cabossés. Translated from the Swedish by Carine Buy.
As mentioned in my previous billet about The Duck Hunt by Hugo Claus, after reading A Cool Million and the said Duck Hunt, I was in dire need of a feel-good novel. So during a visit to a bookstore, I got myself The Readers of Broken Wheel Recommend by Katarina Bivald.
The blurb is made for bookworms. Sara Lindqvist is twenty-eight years old and lives in Haninge, a small town in Sweden. She's a book lover and started a correspondence with Amy, another booklover who lives in Broken Wheel, Iowa. They've been discussing books and life for two years when the bookshop where Sara works goes belly up. Amy convinces the now unemployed Sara to come and stay with her for a few weeks. Sara organizes her trip but when she arrives in Broken Wheel, it's the day of Amy's funeral. What to do now?
She decides to stay and gets acquainted with the villagers, an odd bunch of people who stayed in their declining hometown. Broken Wheel progressively lost its inhabitants, then its school and the buildings on Main Street have lost their luster. It's now a sleepy town that will wake up with the arrival of this foreigner who decides to use Amy's books to set up a bookstore on Main Street. Sara wants to use Amy's library to convert Broken Wheel to literature.
Lucky me, I read this at a time when my tolerance for approximate prose and clichéd characters was exceptionally high. I'm so tired after work that I welcomed the reprieve. I finished it despite its 500 pages, its nice but unreal characters, the description of corn fields and the tepid plot. It says a lot about my fatigue.
Conclusion: Two years of correspondence between Sara and Amy and yet for me, nothing to write home about. I do enjoy fluffy books from time to time but this one wasn't good enough. Good fluff is hard to write too.
Other review: Claire from Word by Word read it too and is more positive than I am about it. Her review is here.
The Duck Hunt by Hugo Claus
The Duck Hunt by Hugo Claus (1950) French title: La chasse aux canards. Translated into French from the Dutch (Belgium) by Elly Overziers et Jean Raine.
I'm terribly late with my billets and here I am in June, writing about a novel I read back in January. I am overworked and I don't have enough time to keep up with everything but let's be honest, as far as this billet is concerned, I was dragging my feet.
The Duck Hunt is the bleakest story I've read this year, it's even worse than Caribou Island. We're in the early 1920s in the Dutch speaking countryside of Belgium. The Metsiers live in an isolated farm. Here's the picture: the father was killed during a duck hunt, the mother has an affair with Peter, the farm hand; Yannie, the mildly-retarded son is head over heels in love with his…sister Ana and the said daughter and sister just broke things off with another farmer, the Fat Smelders. Then Ana meets Jim Braddock, a black American soldier stationed in her village. That's the cheery setting of The Duck Hunt.
Hugo Claus alternates short chapters, all one-person narratives. We see the events through everyone's eyes: Peter, Ma, Ana, Yannie, Jim Braddock and even Jules, another villager. The American soldier is the only one who's called by his full name, probably because he's the stranger and the foreigner.
Although I admire Claus's craft –he manages to pack a lot in a short 137 pages – I can't say I enjoyed or even like The Duck Hunt. I have trouble liking books set in grim villages where unhealthy relationships are born from too much isolation and too much proximity. It gives an unpleasant vibe of consanguinity mixed with crass ignorance. It made me shudder and I wasn't keen on finishing it and I've been procrastinating the billet ever since, reluctant to go back to this disagreeable atmosphere. It's like The Passport by Herta Müller, a book I really disliked.
It's obviously a good piece of literature but it's not what I like to read. After reading this and A Cool Million by Nathanael West, I bought The Readers of Broken Wheel Recommend by Katarina Bivald because I was in desperate need of a feel-good novel. I've just read it and the billet will hopefully come soon.
Caribou Island by David Vann
Caribou Island by David Vann (2011) French title : Désolations. Translated by Laura Derajinski.
My mother was not real. She was an early dream, a hope. She was a place. Snowy, like here, and cold. A wooden house on a hill above a river. An overcast day, the old white paint of the buildings made brighter somehow by the trapped light, and I was coming home from school. Ten years old, walking by myself, walking through dirty patches of snow in the yard, walking up to the narrow porch. I can't remember how my thoughts went then, can't remember who I was or what I felt like. All of that is gone, erased. I opened our front door and found my mother hanging from the rafters. I'm sorry, I said, and I stepped back and closed the door. I was outside on the porch again.
You said that? Rhoda asked. You said you were sorry?
Oh, Mom.
It was long ago, Irene said. And it was something I couldn't see even at the time, so I can't see it now. I don't know what she looked like, hanging there. I don't remember any of it, only that it was.
This is the first page of Caribou Island by David Vann. We jump in tragedy right from the start, without any time to test the literary waters of the novel. Irene is Rhoda's mother. She's been married to Gary for thirty years. They met in California where Gary was working on a thesis about Anglo-Saxon early literature. They went to Alaska for a summer and never left. They built their life there, Irene as a kindergarten teacher and Gary working the odd jobs here and there while leaping from one failing project to the other. Living in Alaska was Gary's dream, his vision of living in nature, like the sentimental version of the Vikings in the Anglo-Saxon literature he used to study. Their house in on a lake, rather far from the closest town. It takes forty minutes to Rhoda, who works in town as a veterinarian's assistant, to come and visit her parents.
Irene and Gary are retired now and Gary's new project is to build a cabin on Caribou Island, an island on the lake near their house. He intends to move out of their cozy home to live in this cabin. Irene doesn't approve of this project but she thinks that if she opposes to it, Gary will leave her. And that's unacceptable to her. Her mother committed suicide after her husband left her and Irene never saw her father again. She won't stand to be abandoned again. She's ready to endure anything to keep Gary.
This project becomes a battle of will between the two. Irene's body rejects her submission to it by inflicting her blinding headaches. Gary won't exempt her from working on the cabin and she keeps nailing wood, pulling and carrying logs and sawing woods. All this in atrocious weather because of Gary's lack of planning. He started to build a cabin for the winter in Alaska, in mid-August, without any blueprints or schedule. You just need to read Maria Chapdelaine to know that starting such a project in Alaska so late in the summer is plain stupid.
We follow Irene and Gary's crazy project but we also hear about their children, Rhoda and Mark. Rhoda lives with Jim, a dentist who is ten years older than her and who loves pancakes with peaches for dinner. She craves for security and is ready to settle for Jim as long as he seems reliable. Mark looks like a loser. He lives in his unfinished house by the lake, not far from his parents. His girlfriend Karen and him love pot, they live on the edge of society and Mark makes a living on fishing ships. In the end, I wondered which one of them was the most adjusted. Rhoda is ready to accept a lot for material security and her dreams of a normal life. Mark just does as he pleases but seems reliable at work and supports himself and Karen. Mark and Karen don't need much and have chosen their lives. Between Rhoda and Mark, who's the happiest of the two?
The main characters and the main plot thread of the novel remains Irene and Gary battling with the elements and their logs to build a lopsided cabin that Gary dreams of and that Irene dreads. Landscapes and the weather are key characters in Vann's novel. It reminded me of Housekeeping by Marilyn Robinson. Caribou Island is sad but less bleak and depressing than Housekeeping. The books have the dreadful weather in common. Wind, rain, cold. More wind, more rain and more cold.
David Vann gave a one hour long interview at Quais du Polar this year. I attended his talk with a French journalist. He mentioned landscapes as an important literary tradition in American literature. He also said that he shared details of his life because they have a direct link with his writing. David Vann was born on an island in Alaska in 1966. He said it was a dark island, with one hundred miles per hour winds, six meters of rain per year. He explained that it was overcast and rainy all the time, that they saw the sun two weeks per year. It was isolated and his main activities where fishing and hunting. His personal knowledge of the Alaska landscape and weather is obvious in Caribou Island. It feels real, coming from experience, from the guts.
He also said that he grew up among eleven women of different generations who all had horrible dating experiences. Their vision of men was not stellar and he explained that it feels natural to him to write from a female point of view. I thought that the men in Caribou Island were pathetic and childish. Gary is cruel to Irene and dreams irrealistic dreams. He's selfish and totally unprepared for his new venture and he dares to complain about Irene's lack of enthusiasm. Mark distances himself from his family, he doesn't want to get involved and would rather flee than fight for anything. Jim is like a kid in a grownup body, taking advantage of Rhoda's kindness and practicing evasive behavior at Olympic level. Who would like to be saddled with any of them?
David Vann also explained that his books are based upon Greek tragedy canvasses. They are set in one place, in a limited period of time and with one major plot thread. This is why he works with a close-knit set of characters. Family is the most important thing in life and the closest people are the ones we love the most and the ones that can hurt us the most. We only need one person to break us and this is why side characters are nice but not necessary. To move the plot forward, a taboo needs to be broken or something life changing is about to happen and they'll have to deal with the consequences. Here, Irene and Gary are supposed to move out to the cabin on Caribou Island. These elements are enough to cook an explosive drama, which is exactly the case in Caribou Island.
I think that the French cover of the book is excellent: Irene and Gary are like a pair of cissors. They face each other, they are attached forever and spend their time going away from each other and coming close again. This is a typically American novel with its character attracted to life as a pioneer, life in the woods, facing nature on their own. I've never encounted anything like this is a European novel.
Caribou Island is a powerful novel, one that will move you and irritate you. Everything is well designed, the setting, the plot, the style. And yet it feels natural. David Vann is an inspired writer, not one who prepared his first novel in creative writing class. There's a force in his prose and in his characters that comes from deep inside him and the reader can feel it.
Impressive and highly recommended. I read this along with Guy and I've been a bad reading partner. I was supposed to publish this billet on May 31st but real life went in the way. Sorry again, Guy.
Black Bazaar by Alain Mabanckou
Black Bazaar by Alain Mabanckou (2009) Original French title: Black Bazar
|Il soutient que l'Africain a été le premier homme sur la Terre, les autres races ne sont venues qu'après. Tous les hommes sont donc des immigrés, sauf les Africains qui sont chez eux ici-bas.
|He says that the African man was the first man on Earth and that the other races only came after. Therefore, all men are immigrants except African people who are right at home.
Mabanckou is a writer I'd wanted to read for a long time and if I had to tag Black Bazar with something I'd say energetic and refreshing.
The main character is Buttologist, a Congolese dandy who lives in Paris. He's brokenhearted after his French girlfriend of Congolese origin left him to go live in Congo with a musician he nicknamed The Mongrel. In French, Buttologist is named Fessologue and he got his nickname because of his fondness for female butts. The Mongrel is L'Hybride.
Buttologist pours his thoughs into his journal, Black Bazaar and that's how the reader has access to his inner mind. We hear about his relationship with Original Color and the trail of sorrow she left behind. We meet with his friends at Jip's, a bar in the Halles neighborhood in Paris. (That's where the Beaubourg museum is.) His friends are also immigrants from Africa and they chat about everything. He introduces us to Congolese fashion and teaches us about his community. He lives in a tiny studio in the 10th arrondissement of Paris, near the Château d'Eau metro station. We walk around with him, see his interaction with the shopkeeper L'Arabe du Coin. He shares his thoughts about his life, about being black in Paris, about the French language. His life changes when he meets Jean-Philippe, a famous author from Haiti, probably Laferrière literary doppelgänger. Buttologist starts to write as well.
Black Bazaar is not a book made for summaries and Cliff Notes. It's too full of life. The best of the experience lays in Mabanckou's incredible virtuosity with the French language. He knows it inside and out and plays it effortlessly. His style is full of quirks, twists and innuendos. It sounds simple but it's not.
|Un Blanc qui apprend du tam-tam, c'est normal, ça fait chic, ça fait type qui est ouvert aux autres cultures du monde et pas du tout raciste pour un sou. Un Noir qui bat du tam-tam, ça craint, ça fait trop retour aux sources, à la case départ, à l'état naturel, à la musique dans la peau. C'est pas pour rien que les Européens s'intéressent comme ça au tam-tam. C'est pour comprendre comment les choses se passaient chez nous quand il n'y avait pas d'autres moyens de communication que celui-là.
A white guy who learns how to play tom-tom, it's normal, it's chic, it says "I'm a man open to the other cultures of the world and I'm not racist at all". A Black man who plays the tam-tam, it sucks, it's too much back to his roots, back to square one, back to his natural state, back to having the beat. It ain't surprising that Europeans are interested in tom-tom that way. It is to understand how things went in our country when we had no other means of communication.
There is a lot packed up in this simple paragraph. First it resonates with Dany Laferrière's comments about his meetings with white girls in Montreal in How To Make Love to a Negro Without Getting Tired. Mabanckou seems to say that when a white man plays the tom-tom, he seems open minded and when a black man does, he seems to be looking for his past. Neither the white man or the black man is seen as simply someone who enjoys playing the tom-tom. There has to be a meaning behind it or more precisely, our cultural background puts a filter on what we see.
Then, there's the brilliant style. I tried to translate this paragraph as best as I could but a lot of things are lost in translation. It is difficult for me to give back the tone and the register of Black Bazaar. In French, I'd qualify it as highbrow colloquial. The use of ça instead of cela reveals spoken language. Then he makes play on words with casual expressions. Retour à la case départ is the French way to say Back to square one on board games. But in French, a case is also the word used for African huts. So, for a French, it sounds like back to African huts as well. And then, there's la musique dans la peau which I translated as having the beat. That's a cliché about black people but in French it has an additional meaning. The literal translation of la musique dans la peau would be to have music in your skin or in English, you'd probably say in your blood. But blood is red for everyone when someone's skin can be of different color, so the French has another layer. And on top of it, La musique dans la peau was a hit song by Zouk Machine in the 1980s. It was a group of black ladies from Guadalupe singing zouk songs.
This is Alain Mabanckou for you: intelligent colloquial language laced with cultural references and punchy thoughts about the relationships between blacks and whites and the world around him. I could quote other paragraphs with embedded Brassens lyrics or references to Césaire or Dany Lafferière. Writers like Mabanckou keep the French language alive. If books had buddies, Black Bazaar would be friends with A Moveable Feast, How To Make Love to a Negro Without Getting Tired, Going to Meet the Man, Ask the Dust, Post Office or with The Lonely Londoners. Black Bazaar would be in good company, not with Montaigne and La Boëtie but it would be "friends first", like in Brassens's famous song Les Copains d'abord.
NB: Black Bazaar is full of characters with colorful nicknames. I have read Mabanckou in French but had a look at the English version of names coined by the English translator Sarah Ardizzone.
This picture was taken in Bordeaux and it reminded me of Black Bazaar, the book I was reading at the time.
Elle by Philippe Djian
Elle by Philippe Djian (2012) Original French title: "Oh…"
Philippe Djian is probably my favorite contemporary French author. I've followed him since his first successes in the 1980s. I loved Échine when I read it then, I got attached to the characters and loved his sense of humor. I have read most of his books and you can find billets on my blog about Vengeances (Not available in English), Incidences (Consequences) and Impardonnables (Unforgivable). "Oh…" won the Prix Interallié in 2012. Elle is already available in UK and will be released by Other Press in the USA on May 23rd. It is translated by Michael Katims.
Several of his books have been made into a film, 37°2 le matin (Betty Blue), directed by Beineix, Impardonnables, directed by André Téchiné or Incidences, directed by the brothers Larrieux. And last but not least, "Oh…" (Elle) was made into a film by Paul Verhoeven. The film won a Golden Globe Award in Best Foreign Language Film and a César. Isabelle Huppert plays the main character, Michèle and won the Golden Globe Award and the César for Best Actress. Now that I've read the book, I want to watch its film version.
Philippe Djian loves American literature and especially Raymond Carver. He indirectly introduced me to John Fante and "Oh…" opens with a quote from A Piece of News by Eudora Welty : It was dark outside. The storm had rolled away to faintess like a wagon crossing a bridge.
"Oh…" is a first-person narrative. We're in Michèle's head. She's in her mid-forties, has been divorced from Richard for three years. They have a twenty-three years old son, Vincent. When the book opens, Michèle has just been raped in her own home by a stranger. He was waiting for her in her house.
|Je me suis sans doute éraflé la joue. Elle me brûle. Ma mâchoire me fait mal. J'ai renversé un vase en tombant, je me souviens l'avoir entendu exploser sur le sol et je me demande si je ne me suis pas blessée avec un morceau de verre, je ne sais pas. Le soleil brille encore dehors. Il fait bon. Je reprends doucement mon souffle. Je sens que je vais avoir une terrible migraine, dans quelques minutes.
|I must have scraped my cheek. It burns. My ja hurts. I knocked a vase over when I fell. I remember hearing it shatter on the floor and I'm wondering if I got cut with a piece of glass. I don't know. The sun is still shining outside. The weather's good. Little by little, I catch my breath. I feel an awful migraine coming on, any minute. (translation by Michael Katims)
This very first paragraph sets the tone of the novel. Michèle is cold and detached. She speaks as if she has a permanent out-of-body experience. She's living her life like voice over. Michèle does not react how you'd expect a woman to react after a rape. She doesn't collapse, she doesn't go to the police. She doesn't say anything, she goes on with her life even if she thinks about it and feels a bit insecure in her house.
Along the pages, we get acquainted with Michèle and her family and friends. She and her best friend Anna have created an agency that produces scenarios for TV shows and for the film industry. Michèle reviews scenarios, meets with writers and takes on their work or not. Unfortunately, Richard writes scenarios that Michèle has constantly refused to promote because she thinks they're not got enough. To say it strained their relationship is an understatement. Although they got divorced, Michèle and Richard still have a strong relationship. They see each other often and Richard still feels protective over Michèle. When she realizes that Richard is in a steady relationship with Hélène, she gets jealous, even if she has no right to be since she initiated the divorce procedure.
Their son Vincent has just moved in with his girl-friend Josie who's pregnant with another man's child. Michèle can't understand why Vincent wants to stay with Josie and raise this baby as his own. Richard thinks Vincent shall live his life as he pleases but Michèle is convinced he's too young to make such a decision. There's also Michèle's mother, Irène. She dresses like a hooker and has made her goal to live off men. Michèle does not approve of her last boy-friend and is horrified to hear that Irène got engaged to this man.
Michèle is a controlling woman and it stems from her past, a past I won't disclose to avoid spoilers. She is controlling and since she pays for Vincent and Irène's rents, it is hard for them to shoo her away and it comforts her in her idea that they are not adults and need supervision.
When this rape occurs, Michèle is trying to end the affair she's been having for months with Robert, Anna's husband. She's also getting acquainted with her neighbor, Patrick and introducing him in her close-knit circle.
This is the setting for a novel that take us through thirty days in the life of a complicated woman. Thirty days full of darkness, haunted by tragedies and bad memories, where sex and death are constant companions.
I think Michèle's character will shock people with a stereotyped vision of women. If you see her through the lenses of Judeo-Christian morality, she's doomed. She has an affair with a married man who is also her best-friend and business partner's husband. This is a triple off-limits man. She loves Vincent but hates motherhood and doesn't hesitate to remind him how awful her delivery had been. Here's Michèle commenting on her feelings for her son.
|Je n'ai rien caché à ce garçon de l'enfer où m'avait précipitée sa venue au monde, mais je ne lui ai jamais dit quel amour insensé j'ai éprouvé pour lui—que j'aime toujours de tout mon cœur, sans doute, Vincent est mon fil, mais tout finit par tiédir au fil du temps.
|I hid nothing from this boy and always told him that his birth cast me into the depths of hell. But I never told him the burning love I felt for him—I still love him with all my heart, undoubtedly, but everything cools off with time.
(my translation)
She's not a stellar example of motherhood. She's cold and detached. Remorse is not in her vocabulary. She's harsh in her interactions with other people. Her reaction to her rape is not what society expects from her. Lots of her traits makes her a misfit. But she's not a monster. She's fragile as well, fate has dealt her a shitty hand at a crucial moment of her life and she went on as best she could.
Djian's novel is a tour-de-force. Everything is set for the reader to hate Michèle but they can't. He manages to balance her character and his writing full of short but pointed sentences gives Michèle a clear and audible voice. He doesn't judge and his writing is such that this reader didn't judge as well. I was ill-at-ease, shocked but I never judged her. I thought it must be awful to have someone like her in your family but nothing more. To be honest, I could see Isabelle Huppert in Michèle. I even wondered if Djian thought about her when he wrote the book.
In my opining, this is one of Djian's best books. I'm not competent enough to analyse this further but there's something about classic tragedy here. Everything is set to lead to the denouement. It is definitely Djian's current trademark. It's dark but not bleak. It flirts with crime fiction. Djian doesn't hesitate to take controversial routes and not every reader will enjoy it. But I did. Immensely.
Three short stories from Bacacay by Witold Gombrowicz
Three Short Stories from Babacay by Witold Gombrowicz. (1928) French version : Le festin chez la Comtesse Fritouille et autres nouvelles. Translated from the Polish by Georges Sédir.
French publisher Folio has this collection of little books at 2€ each to make reader discover forgotten texts or try new writers. They usually are about 120 pages long and cover various types of literature. I bought Le festin chez la Comtesse Fritouille because I'd never read anything by Polish writer Witold Gombrowicz and I wanted to try one of his books.
My copy is a collection of three short stories coming from Bacacay, a larger collection of Gombrowicz's short stories. This Folio 2€ includes A Premeditated Crime, Dinner at Countess Pavahoke's and Virginity. The three were written in 1928. The French translation by Georges Sédir follows the translation codes that consist in translating names even if it's not necessary. This is how you end up with characters named Antoine and Cécile in A Premeditated Crime or a countess Fritouille instead of Pavahoke. According to Google Translate, Pavahoke does mean Fritouille in French but I have no idea what it means and the internet is clueless too.
A Premeditated Crime is the story of a judge who arrives at the estate of Ignace K. They were old schoolmates and have a business meeting about an inheritance affair. When the judge arrives at the estate, he discovers that Ignace K. just died from a heart attack. The judge being a judge can't help wondering if this death is natural or not. From then on, he'll do his best to find everything strange and prove that Mr K. was murdered. Is the judge delusional or was Mr K. really killed in cold blood?
Dinner at Countess Pavahoke's is told by a bourgeois who is invited to the Countess Pavahoke's exclusive Friday dinners. These dinners are reserved to special guests and are the days where they only eat simple meals made of vegetables. This would be considered as stingy if it were organized by common people but since it's set up by an aristocrat, it's fashionable. Follows the description of a cruel and extraordinary diner but writing more about it would spoil the short story.
Virginity is the strange tale of Alice and Paul. They have been engaged for four years and Paul is just back from China to finally marry his fiancée. Paul is obsessed with Alice's virginity and innocence. She's 21 but what he loves most about her is this feeling of purity. But Alice's mind is not as pure as Paul's would like. I must confess I didn't understand where Gombrowicz wanted to go with this story. If someone can enlighten me, comments and explanations are welcome.
I enjoyed Gombrowicz's wits (and I'm not going to try to say this aloud, my French tongue is already in a twist) and his curious ideas for stories. He has a great sense of dark humour.
This is one of my contribution to Marina Sofia's #EU27 Project – Reading the European Union.
Book Around the Corner: the age of reason
Seven is the age of Book Around the Corner. Seven is also the age of first grade, the year we learn how to read. I remember being so excited to go to primary school because I was going to learn how to read books by myself. I've always loved stories and books.
When I launched my blog seven years ago, it was a promise to myself at the dawn of a new chapter of my life. My kids weren't toddlers anymore, I had more free time and it was time to set free the part of myself who loved literature and never felt quite complete without books.
I've done several Blog Anniversary posts, like here in 2012, 2013 or 2014. Looking back on these seven years, how do I feel about book blogging? It might be disgustingly sweet but I just feel happy about it. I think I created my special little corner on the literary blogosphere. I mix my French background with the English language. I've introduced you to several French words that I adopted in my English blogging atmosphere. Seven words for seven years.
1. Billet. I've explained in my 2012 post why I use the French billet instead of review. "That said, English-speaking bloggers need a word to name their articles, a special word that isn't review. French bloggers have a nice one for their posts. They call them billet. (pronounce beeyay) I like this word. A billet doux is a love note you pass to your lover, a billet d'humeur is a column in a newspaper, always an opinion, not a professional review. So, you'll hear about billets now, no more reviews because sometimes I write love notes about books, sometimes I'm a little provocative and most of all, literature isn't my profession."
2. Libraire: A bookworm who works in a bookstore is not a book seller, it's a libraire. It's a noble profession and I never found the equivalent in the English language. There's an implicit curtsey in the word libraire, the one you have in store for people who bow to literature and will recommend books with insight and passion. They work in librairies and here's a lovely one in Périgueux.
3. Bouquin: A loving way to say book. When I visited the Père Lachaise cemetery, I came across a tombstone for the Bouquin family. How lucky they are to have such a positive surname!
4. Bouquiniste: A libraire who sells used bouquins. Tourists know the bouquinistes on the bank of the Seine river in Paris. There's one at a corner of Central Park too.
5. Bande-dessinée (BD) It's a neutral word that covers comic books, graphic novels and all books with images and bubbles. French people are great BD readers and France is the second market for mangas, after Japan.
6. Polar: a generic and affectionate word to call crime fiction books. This is why Lyon's crime fiction festival is named Quais du Polar. (Quais means banks and it refers to the banks of the two rivers of Lyon, the Rhône and the Saône)
7. OVNI littéraire. It means Literary UFO. We use it when a book doesn't fit into any category. It's alien to all genres and since we need boxes at any cost, a literary UFO it becomes.
This leads me to another corner of my literary garden, the odd categories. Regular readers of Book Around the Corner know them. They are: Literary UFO, Beach & Public Transport, Sugar without Cellulite and the latest one Translation Tragedy.
There are also words that are useful to describe books but I think have no English equivalent.
Second degré: when things you read should not be taken at face value but have a subtle upper meaning. They seem plain or stupid but they aren't because there's a second meaning.
Rire jaune: The hollow laugh you'll have when you'd rather go for a nervous laugh than dissolve in tears. Very useful in times of political horror.
Jouissif: The closest word I know for this is exhilarating but jouissif has another undercurrent meaning. Melissa wrote about it here and I love to use it when a book made me smile, gave me energy and makes me want to buy it to all my friends.
But enough of French words and enough about me. I wanted to mention these words because it is my way to bring a bit of France in your literary world. They're part of my trademark, if I may say so.
Along these seven years, Book Around the Corner has found its readers. I know where the frequent commenters come from but I know nothing about the silent readers. Of course, WordPress has statistics but they say nothing meaningful. I don't care about the number of hits per country. I care about you, who read my billets on purpose. So, let's play a game. If you could all leave a simple comment with your first name and your country, I'd be glad to discover where the real readers of my blog come from.
Wherever you are, I'm happy to share my literary journey with you. Thanks again for reading my clumsy prose, for giving me part of your precious free time and for all the wonderful exchanges we've had. I have learnt a lot in the book blogging community. I discovered new writers and like-minded people. I learnt to stop hiding my bookworm side and my literary coming out made me realize I had book lovers around me, especially in the office. I also had the great pleasure to meet fellow bloggers in real life and it's always been a fantastic experience. There's an immediate connection between members of book lovers' family. Really, don't hesitate to contact me if you ever come to Lyon.

Hours before the officially opening of baseball's winter meetings in Dallas on Monday, Toronto Blue Jays general manager Alex Anthopoulos says he was on the five-yard line as far as closing in on a move, via of free agency or trade.
So, which is it, and what player(s) are involved?
Free-agent closers Ryan Madson or Francisco Cordero? Fellow stoppers Huston Street, Andrew Bailey or Matt Capps?
Cincinnati Reds second baseman Brandon Phillips?
Or, how about an even bigger name like free agent Prince Fielder, son of former Blue Jays slugging designated hitter Cecil Fielder?
"We've got some trades that are appealing. Both sides are very close, same with free agents," Anthopoulos told reporters.
There is some thought that Fielder, a first baseman from Florida, might prefer to spend the rest of his major league career in the east after five full seasons in Milwaukee.
A CBSCleveland.com report over the weekend said Fielder has narrowed his choices to three teams: Washington Nationals, Brewers and Blue Jays.
Toronto has finished fourth in the American League East the past four years and, with an 81-81 record in 2011, sat 16 games in arrears of the division champions, the New York Yankees.
Big bat
Many would say the Blue Jays could use another big bat in the middle of the batting order to contend, and there is none bigger on the free market this winter besides Fielder and Albert Pujols.
In 2011, the 27-year-old Fielder posted a .299 batting average, 38 home runs, 120 runs batted in, .415 on-base percentage and 95 runs scored with Milwaukee. The five-foot-11, 275-pounder is also durable, having played 162, 161 and 162 contests in each of the last three seasons.
Fielder would be a game-changer and could help Toronto at the gate after the Jays ranked 25th out of 30 major league teams last year in attendance with an average of 22,445 per game.
Another reason some people in the game are urging the Jays to pursue Fielder is the fact an additional wild-card team will be added next season or in 2013.
But there is a cost. However, Jays president and CEO Paul Beeston has said previously that the team payroll could increase to $120 million from $70 million.
Visions of two-time defending major league home run champion Jose Bautista batting in front of cleanup hitter Prince Fielder would remind fans in Milwaukee and elsewhere of Ryan Braun and Fielder.
Batting ahead of Fielder over the last five years enabled Braun to win the National League most valuable player award, capturing 20 of 32 first-place votes.

Herb Tandree Philosophy Books
Marsilio Ficino (1433-1499), the Florentine scholar-philosopher-magus, was largely responsible for the Renaissance revival of Plato. Ficino's commentaries on Plato remained the standard guide to the Greek philosopher's works for centuries. Vanhaelen's new translation of Ficino's vast commentary on the "Parmenides "makes this monument of Renaissance metaphysics accessible to the modern student of philosophy. The volume contains the first critical edition of the Latin text, an ample introduction, and extensive notes.

RME Compliance Check Per-interface pre-req
I am trying to do something similar to:
Where I want to have an interface's subcommand as a prequisite to apply other commands to the interface. Basically:
if interface -switchport mode trunk, then apply X
In the thread above, jclarke said RME had a limitation where it could not do this. Has it been resolved? If it has, I need some help with my template.

Upcoming Tunneling Projects
Laguna Beach
Tunnel Stabilization and Sewer Pipeline Replacement
Approved by the South Coast Water District Board of Directors in 2010 and the City of Laguna Beach in late 2013, the Tunnel Stabilization & Sewer Pipeline Replacement Project (Tunnel Project) is a 100-year solution to protect the environment, local economies and neighboring communities. The project comprises two key components:
- Tunnel Stabilization: The District will enlarge the size of the tunnel from an average of 6 to 9 ft. This will ensure safer working conditions and greater access for future pipeline maintenance and repair. Permanent shotcrete lining and steel supports will be installed at several locations where required, replacing rotten timber supports and removal of loose rock that currently exist.
- Pipeline Replacement: The District will install a new 24-in. pipeline throughout the tunnel. The current pipeline – also 24 in. in diameter – will be encased in concrete, but preserved for redundancy and emergency use.
The cost to repair the tunnel is estimated at approximately $90 million and will be funded through low-interest state loans, grants and the District's general fund. Shortlisted tunnel contractors announcement was anticipated for 2014-2015 with request for bids expected in 2015 and NTP in 2015-2016.

I-65 construction south of Indy tests commuters' patience
Trips from Southport to southern Johnson County can take up to an hour longer
Southside commuters are swerving, merging and yielding a lot for road construction this summer — and there's little relief in sight.
From Southport Road to Edinburgh and beyond, concrete testing barricades and orange traffic barrels on Interstate 65 have led drivers through myriad lane shifts and closures, adding precious time to rush-hour commutes, as the highway and bridges are rebuilt or repaired.
Alternative routes, including portions of U.S. 31, also are being revamped.
"There aren't too many areas (of I-65) where we don't have construction testing and inspection going on right now," said Indiana Department of Transportation spokesman Harry Maginity. "If you are driving from Indianapolis to Louisville (Ky.), you are going to see a lot of it all year."
The biggest projects are on I-65 around Greenwood where about 63,000 cars travel both ways each day. Heavy machinery in the blocked-off medians and on bridges has made space in the travel lanes tight and twisting. Combined with reduced speeds, the journey in and out of Indianapolis can add more than hour of travel time for a trip between Southport and Edinburgh.
"Our drivers plan that a trip from I-465 on the […]

Ugly Drum Smoker

I keep thinking about a thread or two on here where members were discussing an inner/outer drum setup and filling the gap with diatomaceous earth mix to make a kamado style UDS.
We have thousands of drums at work, 10/30/55 gallon sizes and I'm considering modding my 55 gallon UDS with a 30 inside then filling the gap with fine grain play sand. Even better would be Daytona Beach sand, that stuff packs like crazy.
My plan would be to bolt the 30 gallon inside with around a 2" gap on the bottom and centered then pour the sand with it on an angle and shake/vibrate it to get good fill. The cooking grate would sit on the 30 gallon's lip since I think they are 18.5" or so diameter and I rarely use the outer inch or two of the grate now anyway.
My guess on benefits is lower fuel burn rate and more stable temps.
Thoughts? Has anyone tried it yet?

Hungary should be excluded from the European Union, Luxembourg Foreign Minister Jean Asselborn said in an interview published Tuesday, taking issue with the country's migration policies weeks before it holds a controversial referendum on refugee quotas.
"Those who - like Hungary - build fences against refugees fleeing war or those who infringe upon press freedom or judicial independence should temporarily - or if needed - permanently be excluded from the EU," Asselborn told the German newspaper Die Welt.
He argued that this is the only way of preserving the cohesion and the values of the bloc.
"The fence that Hungary is building to deter refugees keeps getting longer, higher and more dangerous. Hungary is not far off from [issuing] a firing order against refugees," Asselborn charged.
Hungary would have no chance of joining the EU if it applied for membership today, the long-time Luxembourg politician said.
Hungary became a member of the bloc in 2004. Its conservative prime minister, Viktor Orban, has repeatedly clashed with the EU in recent years over everything from migration and the death penalty to government reforms.
His country will hold a referendum on October 2 asking its population whether it agrees with an EU decision that asylum seekers should be redistributed across the bloc. Orban has been openly hostile to migrants.
Asselborn's comments come days before Orban will meet his EU counterparts at a summit in Bratislava meant to set the direction of the bloc following Britain's shock decision to withdraw.

" You can answer with the sandwich just...swallow first please. It's about (Name)."

Dr. Evans opened his ice chest and to get out a nice cold Dr Pepper out of his ice chest. He was currently just laying out in the hot Mexican sun on July 4, while everyone back in the States were celebrating Independence Day. It was a fine vacation so far, funded entirely from a single check from his favorite patient Cally Haywood. Anyway, as he reached for his ice cold beverage, he was shocked to find that there was no drinks to be found at all. This angered the doctor, but luckily, he had a techno-magic seal attached to all of his drinks, which would send them back right to him at the press a single button. Upon pressing said button, not only did his drinks reappear, still in their netting, but they were in the hands of a small Mexican boy, probably nowhere past four years old. The boy seemed to wear nothing but rags, a sure sign of either poverty or really good acting, and was looking at the doctor with a horrified expression.

Solphr (pronounced "sulfur") is an object-oriented PHP5 library designed for ease of use and deployment for communicating with Solr. Why a new library?In the process of deploying Solr for searching video, the developers at Frameweld determined that the pre-existing solutions were less than satisfactory. While the solutions offered access to Solr, they were either missing too much functionality (the existing pure PHP offerings) or had an API that was overcomplicated and impossible to learn (the PLucene PHP5 Search Solr

This module allows payments to be made through the Danish payment gateway provider QuickPay.
Drupal 7 version includes submodule for integration with Drupal Commerce and Übercart 3.x (UC3 module contributed by B14), the Drupal 6 version includes submodules for Übercart 2.x, and E-Commerce 4.x, and Drupal 5 version supports E-Commerce 3.4 and Übercart 1.x.
All versions contains a sparsely documented, but simple, API for custom integration, with the Drupal 7 being a new OO rewrite.
Read the included README for required implementation information.
Important information
There's no tested upgrade path between major Drupal releases.
Supported features
- Payment by all common credit cards (as supported by QuickPay).
- Language selection for payment window.
- Autocapture. Übercart 2 module can autocapture transactions only containing non-shippable products.
- Subscriptions, by using core API, or uc_reccuring 2.x.
- Übercart 2 module supports adding transaction fees to order.
While these modules are as plug and play as is possible, setting up online payment still requires some insight into Drupal, payment gateways and PBS requirements, and is not for the casual user. If in doubt, consult a professional.
E-Commerce 4 for Drupal 6
The eC4 module implements a new workflow status in order to support authorize/capture workflow. Some adjustments are necessary, detailed information is available in the readme file. Please test your order workflow thoroughly, and report back on your findings.
This module has been sponsored by QuickPay and reboli.dk, DiscImport, UC3 module contributed by B14.

Lamar Odom Moved Out Of Intensive Care Unit
Celebrity| |
He was treated at a Las Vegas hospital, where he regained consciousness on October 16, and he was subsequently airlifted to Los Angeles' Cedars-Sinai Medical Center, where he was placed in intensive care. Odom underwent emergency surgery for a reported issue related to a bout of pneumonia last week, but he is finally on the mend and has now been deemed stable enough to be moved out of ICU, according to People. The 35-year-old is having daily physiotherapy sessions and an insider claims he has since regained some of the motor functions he had been struggling with after his recent strokes. However, he is reportedly still struggling with kidney problems and requires regular dialysis. "After therapy, he is able to take a few steps with help," said the source. "He is doing very well and continues to be a fighter. He hasn't given up once, and this will really help him in the future. He still has a long way to go." Kardashian has been by her estranged husband's side throughout his health emergency and last week, the former couple decided to call off its divorce, two years after initially filing papers. However, the reality TV star insists the move doesn't mean they are giving their marriage another go. "I pulled back on the divorce because there is no rush for it," she told People. "For medical reasons and a ton of other things, it's just smarter that it's put on hold. But that does not mean I'm back with Lamar. It's not even in our brains to think about us having a relationship. Only time will tell." Meanwhile, Kardashian has come under fire from her father-in-law, Joe, who claims the reality star is responsible for banning him from visiting his boy. "I'm mad, I'm upset because this is the second time I came to see my son and they won't let me see my son," Joe told TMZ this week. "It's a lotta [sic] sabotage, things going on, like why can't I see my son? I brung (brought) him in the world. I'm highly upset right now, this is the second time… they won't let me see my son like I'm a villain or something man, that's my son… I've tried reaching out to everybody. That's why I'm here now. It's p**sing me off." Kardashian has yet to respond to the accusations, but reports suggest Lamar himself chose to keep his father away. Joe has a history of substance abuse and has endured a strained relationship with his son over the years.

Sponsored walk raises over £3000 for abuse survivors' charity
Open Secret would like to extend a huge thanks to Amanda Louise Brown and her team of friends and family, who have raised over £3,000 for the childhood trauma charity by organising a sponsored walk.
The team of Amanda, her mother Sara, and friends Lauren, Kirsteen, Wendy, and Jeanette all walked 20 miles from Stirling Castle to the Falkirk Wheel on Sunday 5th June 2016 to raise awareness and funds for the charity.
Speaking on why the team chose to do the walk, Amanda said: "I had chosen to raise money for Open Secret as a survivor of child abuse myself this organisation don't get enough credit for their services. They have helped not just me but my family cope with the aftermath that abuse in a family causes and if it wasn't for them things could have been a lot different today."
The walk was a huge success, with the group raising £3020.88 and smashing their goal of £2000, and over 70 people have donated to the team's JustGiving page as of this writing.
Chief executive Janine Rennie said: "we are so grateful to Amanda and her team for taking forward this fundraising initiative. Funds are so important to ensure the ongoing survival of Open Secret, enabling us to offer support and help to survivors of abuse."
- Open Secret is a registered Scottish charity No. SC024065 providing confidential support to individuals and families affected by childhood abuse and trauma for over 22 years, with services available across Forth Valley.
- Included photograph was taken at the start of the walk at Stirling Castle. From left to right: Lauren, Sara, Jeanette, Amanda, Kirsteen and Wendy.

Our Lab Facilities
The mHealth lab is co-located in a beautiful space in 177 Huntington Avenue, at the edge of the Northeastern University campus closest to the heart of downtown Boston. The space includes our offices and the human-computer interaction lab. We are a short walk from Northeastern's West Village H building, which houses the College of Computer and Information Science and Northeastern's Behrakis building, which is the home base for the Bouve College of Health Sciences and houses the exercise physiology lab and the medical simulation center.
The mHealth Laboratory supports the development of mobile health technologies. It is equipped with a suite of mobile phones and facilities for testing mobile phones and miniature sensors, including electronic shaker equipment, a variety of motion measurement devices (e.g., Actigraphs), tablet computers, consumer electronic fitness measurement devices (e.g., pedometers, scales), and an Oxycon Mobile portable calorimeter system. The lab also houses sets of custom-designed and built miniature mobile sensors for the body and the home that are used in ubiquitous computing prototyping and experimentation.
The HCI lab supports the development and evaluation of advanced human computer interface technologies. The laboratory includes rooms used for interviewing, observing human subjects, and testing in-home and mobile sensor technologies – in addition to space for software development computers. Other computers are specially equipped for video capture, review, and editing; 3D modeling; and animation work. The lab has a range of display devices for experimentation including a 50†plasma screen. We are constructing a mock living room that can be used for rapid prototyping and testing of home and wearable-based persuasive sensor systems, as well as virtual links between the home and other environments.
The mHealth group also has access to the Bouve exercise physiology lab, which can be used to test physical activity sensor systems. This lab has cardiopulmonary function and aerobic assessment equipment, body composition measurement devices, anaerobic power assessment equipment, skeletal muscle strength and endurance analysis equipment, and energy expenditure assessment equipment (including portable).
We share the space in 177 Huntington with many colleagues from Northeastern doing interdisciplinary work in health, HCI, and network science.

Nice! So hopefully someone will submit patches to build a two-way bridge via git subtree. Having them diverge would be sad. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html

5. He also cooks well.
6. Also he can cook well.
7. He can cook well also.
(Are they all grammatical? Would you check the position of 'also'?)
1 and 2 are about the same and are interchangeable, yes.
3 - 7
All are fine. The position of 'also' affects the tone of the sentence and sometimes what the sentence implies.

Quality-of-Life Issues in the Management of Epithelial Ovarian Cancer
- First Online:
- Citations
- 84 Downloads
Opinion statement
The importance of quality-of-life (QOL) measurements in cancer management is being increasingly appreciated. This is especially important in patients with advanced cancers. Over 80% of women with epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) will present with disease outside the ovary as there are no accurate screening tests, and symptoms usually do not develop until EOC has spread. Standard treatment includes debulking surgery followed by chemotherapy to which most women will have a complete response but only a minority of women with advanced disease will be cured. Fortunately, advances in surgical and chemotherapeutic management have improved overall survival with 45% of women of all stages living 5 years or longer. EOC may in many cases be considered a "chronic cancer," which highlights the importance of QOL in management decisions. QOL may be affected by the disease itself as well as by surgical and chemotherapeutic treatments. Future studies of the care and treatment of EOC patients should include well-designed QOL evaluations.

My kid have been liking Power Ranger for quite sometime. He is at the age of "transforming" and what better way to go power up his imagination with some of the props.
The latest Saban's Power Rangers Super Megaforce rangers uses this device to transform. The Deluxe Legendary Morpher!
The package include 2 ranger keys. The original power Mighty Morphin Red ranger and the Saban's Red Ranger.
Both of this key will somehow activate the "handphone" looking device know as the Legendary Morpher.
The interesting things is when you turn the key, according to the ranger, it will give different sound and phase. For the Mighty Morphin power ranger, it will play the theme of that series. Bring back some good times in the 90s... man I feel old...
Anyway my kid just kept turning on and off and pretending to power up as a ranger.... soon I think I have to get some accessories for him.... just pretend I never hear that. LOL
PS: My kid have no idea it was a handphone as he did not see any flip phone before and there was no touch screen.... Generation gap...

text: Brooklyn born emcee SMTH is trying to give you something you can feel. Using life itself as his blank canvas, SMTH (born Brandon Smith) turns his brand of street literature into a collage of portraits, cleverly capturing the stark realities of the environment that raised him. By the age of 12 he began a budding career in rap where he expressed himself from the heart. His neighborhood, dominated by crime and the activities from both drug dealers and users developed the type of social commentary and perspective that skillfully details the evolution of a mindset from the streets. As the years passed, SMTH's skill and technique led him to work with established acts such as DJ Spinna as well as find a home for his music at the Brooklyn based Freedom Musiq. In 2008 he was able to secure a highly coveted nomination for Street Album Of The Year at the Justo Mixtape Awards. The experience and exposure created a buzz in the hip-hop community, which complemented the launch of his forthcoming mixtape, THE SMTH PROJECT. With a confidence that spans well past the community that raised and inspired him, be prepared for a refreshing air in the sub-genre of New York rap.
