Book Review: "Anne Boleyn: 500 Years of Lies" by Hayley Nolan
When I first started this book and read some of the cutesy side-notes (such as, and I shit you not, the use of hashtags in the introduction), I sat back in my chair, covered my face and thought "oh, here the f- we go..." The final boss of the millennial quirkdom 3rd-wave-feminist social-media-brained pseudo-historical pop-culture middle-class putrid quippy bullshit. Here the f- we go, indeed. Then I realised that I am pretty much the same and though this took me a while I also realised: that is basically what I do here. Atop of this, Hayley Nolan isn't exactly wrong. Anne Boleyn's records are written mostly by sociopathic men both past and present who were either so regarded with religion that they didn't know where the sun went at night (and they didn't care, but they definitely pretended it was a flex) OR, they are so concerned with her appearance, they forget she was a person - typical of the soft-brained male-dominated academic world.

The Face of Another by Kōbō Abe
The Face of Another was first published in 1964 and hearkens back to the themes and ideas once presented by Franz Kafka, especially when it comes to the book's theories of identity and the self. Samuel Beckett is another writer the author is often compared to since the novel blends absurdity and existentialism with these strange and sideways explorations of human nature and how we become slowly alienated from our true purpose.

Book Review: "Parade's End" by Ford Madox Ford (Pt. 4)
Rating: 5/5 - what a fitting end to such a heartfelt novel of war! *** This volume is set on a single June day in the years after the First World War. While the earlier volumes charted the approach to and experience of war, this instalment turns to its aftermath. Here is Ford commenting on a society stripped of its old certainties and confronting the psychological and moral wreckage left behind. It feels more like the ideas presented by an Evelyn Waugh novel. Is it really time to let go of the past? Yes, yes it is.

Monte Cristo.
In its 57th year, The York Theatre company still impresses audiences across New York City! Last night I had the pleasure of attending ""Monte Cristo" at the bucolic St. Jean's Theatre. This theater is the new home of The York Theatre company and it is more fitting for the make-up of The York Company. It has an orchestra pit, the stage is bigger and more elegant.

From Sketch to Stage: Quannapowitt Players' "Something Intangible" Triumphs
This movie will be my next masterpiece. The Quannapowitt Players invite audiences to “Something Intangible,” a two-act comedy-drama by Bruce Graham. Taking place in 1940s Hollywood, the story is loosely based on Walt and Roy Disney. Dale Wiston worries about his brother, Tony Wiston’s, erratic behavior as he works endlessly to create his latest film.
