Steph, I have a ...Yes to Anonymous's comment!!<br /><br />Steph, I have a question about IN A DARK, DARK WOOD. I heard the author interviewed on NPR. I want to know if the book explains adequately why Nora went to the party. The interview did not. Her going seemed to me like the stupidity of movie characters who are just too curious not to go down into the cellar of the haunted house. Or who, when they get to the stairway in the building where they are being pursued, elect to run for the roof instead of the street. I often find myself shouting at the TV, "Don't go down there, you idiot." Or "Go down. Ah, Stupid. I told you to go down." I am ranting here now, I know. But I hate it when writers take the cheap and easy way out by sending their characters into trouble without a plausible reason.Annamaria Alfierihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12311596277267789834noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7794927480752850942.post-16190708245399079802015-09-13T08:01:50.086-04:002015-09-13T08:01:50.086-04:00Soul on Ice, The Fire Next Time, the Autobiography...Soul on Ice, The Fire Next Time, the Autobiography of Malcolm X and Pimp might have served as a better guide to the 60s, and not just for the racial aspects.
