'Thriller-paced, with mysteries revealed at every turn. With shades of We Are All Completely Beside Ourselves, A Visit from the Goon Squad and Where'd You Go, Bernadette, it combines a uniquely appealing sensibility with a compulsively page-turning plot. But her genius comes at a terrible cost: to her husband, to the brother she left behind, and to an actress who knows too much. Brilliant, infuriating, all-seeing and unknowable, Sophie Stark makes films said to be 'more like life than life itself'. Out now - soon every girl on every train will be reading it' Sunday Times Who is the real Sophie Stark? The Life and Death of Sophie Stark is the story of an enigmatic film director, told by the six people who loved her most. Anna North's novel, The Life and Death of Sophie Stark, has been a hit in America, with Lena Dunham describing its protagonist as a "totally unforgettable female antihero". 'If The Girl on the Train was the woman of 2015, then Sophie Stark is this year's model. When I used to read more progression fantasy, there was usually a point where things just got a little boring. About writing, about what I want to write, and about what I enjoy writing. Well, since I first asked myself those questions, I've learned quite a lot. The process has been fun and super rewarding, with both stories.īeside the reasons I stated for starting these projects, one of the major ones was one question.Īnd what would it mean for me? Was it all a fluke? Was I just lucky? Can I even write anything worth reading? Oh my god nobody will give a shit. To set up a new world and see where it leads. Now I'm working on Infrasound, another side project to develop, to learn and understand more about the process of writing and storytelling. I talked about various considerations like Ilea being insanely powerful, being a little burned with the constant updates and working on the same story. You may or may not remember me testing the waters with Leaves of Terranthir, trying to produce a story beside Azarinth Healer to clear my head. I've been thinking about how to tackle all this but I suppose I'll just go with it. "We call a 'plateau' any multiplicity connected to other multiplicities by superficial underground stems in such a way as to form or extend a rhizome". They take the term plateau from Gregory Bateson, it refers to a sustained intensity. "The map does not reproduce an unconscious closed in upon itself it constructs the unconscious". Tracing involves laying onto reality the pattern of structure, itself a construct. Principle 4: "Principle of asignifying rupture" "There is a rupture in the rhizome whenever segmentary lines explode into a line of flight, but the line of flight is part of the rhizome." Principles 5 and 6: Principle of cartography and decalcomania: Where traditional thought is 'tracing', a rhizome is a map. Principle 3: "Principle of multiplicity" "There are no points or positions in a rhizome, such as those found in a structure, tree, or root. 1 and 2: connection and heterogeneity.: "any point of a rhizome can be connected to anything other, and must be". Deleuze and Guattari discuss the rhizome as being "absolutely different from roots and radicles" 6. There have been warriors and spys, and Cinderella tales from diverse cultures. They learn that the European princess of the Rennaisance is far from the only type of princess. As Grace want to learn what makes a princess a princess, so she, her friends, and her teacher start looking into it. Grace's school puts a float in the parade with a Queen on it and this year, they've decided to add two princesses. We got home and opened this book, and I couldn't love it more if I tried. I just want her to branch out a little, teeny, itsy-bitsy bit. I'm getting a little wary of the whole princess thing and have been trying to direct her to some additional interests and role models. My 3-year old is obsessed with princesses, so on a recent trip to the library when she got her very own library card and saw this book on the shelf, she knew she had to check this book out first. Words I try to escape from as the hours tick by. I secretly pray for the moment I’ll feel nothing because anything is better than this. These thoughts turn my consciousness into an abyss that I can’t escape. All that remains is blinding rage, anger, bitterness, and hatred. Those thoughts become an unbearable weight, a sickening fog that suffocates me, a stench so bad it chokes all the beauty and joy out of life. Everywhere I look, I see betrayal, and I can’t get his duplicitousness out of my head. While my own memories are like a half-forgotten dream, those moments I imagine are all too vivid. Only vague images of our love and life together remain, but those spectral images are tainted. A pain that erases the joy and closeness we shared, pushing it further and further away, like a mirage-unreal. The love that once was so sure has been replaced by anguish. At least what I imagine the truth to be-those images run continuously through my mind. This unfathomable heartache snuffs out all of my urges toward forgiveness because now I know the truth. I never thought that anything associated with love could be so painful, but love betrayed definitely is. It hurts so badly-the half-truths, the deception, the words I never ever thought I’d use… it all hurts. Our history, our bond, our love, didn’t stop my best friend from lying to me all these years. What’s worse than him lying to me as my husband and the father of my child, my so-called soul mate, is that he lied to me as my friend. And the latest fairy tale retelling that is a little darker than the usual retelling and just as dark, if not a little darker than the originals, is the Grimm Trilogy by Adam Gidwitz. Of course, there are the originals and the retellings that are not quite as sanitised, like Roald Dahl’s Revolting Rhymes, or historical fiction that has been influenced by fairy tales, usually for adults. Many fairy tale retellings, and indeed the traditional fairy tales, are often sanitised for children, most notably, Disney’s interpretations, and many picture book and fairy tale collections. Sales for across the series now exceed a quarter of a million copies.The Grimm Trilogy has been on The New York Times Bestsellers list for a total of 16 weeks.It may be frightening, it’s certainly bloody, and it’s definitely not for the faint of heart. But if you dare, turn the page and learn the true story of Hansel and Gretel – the story behind (and beyond) the bread crumbs, edible houses and outwitted witches. Warlocks with dark spells, hunters with deadly aim, and bakers with ovens retrofitted for cooking children lurk within these pages. Synopsis: A gruesome but funny retelling of Grimm’s terrifying tales. The well-drawn worlds, political undercurrents and the believability of the characters make it all feel fresh. it has all the chivalry of Robin Hood and all the shine and grime of Blade Runner. “Marie Lu has beaten the curse with Prodigy.
