The flutter sleeves aren’t really my thing and would work better on someone with narrower shoulders, but they aren’t a deal breaker for me. This easy v-neck top is a nice one for work to weekend style because it’s so versatile. Relaxed Print Splitneck TopĪt Gap Factory (S) // white flares (28) // sandals (7.5) I’ve been working with Gap Factory for the past year or so, and in preparation for this month’s post, I ordered a bunch of their new arrivals for spring/summer. This seems to work I think the cap sleeves on this tee help balance out the volume in the skirt, and I kind of like the dressier vibe. Stripe tops with these denim skirts seems to be a thing, and I’m drawn to the combination. So then I tried the White House Black Market stripe utility tee. I think what bothers me is that it doesn’t look as on-trend as wearing a more casual tee or tank tucked in. It still creates a rather pleasing proportion, though. This sweater is 22″ long, which is a great length with high rise pants, but I feel like it could be even a little bit shorter with this skirt. I decided to see how I would feel about this skirt with a shorter, fitted sweater worn untucked over top, so I tried on Evereve’s Remy Crochet Sweater in a size small. Because the waistband sets so high, the full tuck can work on those of us who don’t typically like to tuck in their tops, but it still feels odd to me. The modern way to wear this skirt is with a tee or tank tucked in, as I did here.

From both perspectives Clark evokes how their common purpose rose and later diverged, invaluable reportage missing from other books. Nine years in the making, “Red Comet” takes us on a literary picaresque, drawing on untapped archives, Plath’s complete correspondence, interviews with surviving members of the couple’s social and professional circles, and, most crucially, on Hughes’ journals and letters. Which is to say: They were artists first, spouses second. … Her lines should be, above all, ‘clear and vivid.’ ” ‘How about another word for ‘hideous’? I’d like better something that showed the eyes hideous, as in the fine ‘Snake’s twisted eye.’ … Hughes responded in kind … he advised her to dispense with unnecessary adjectives. Newly married, the couple were bewitched by the muse each found in the other and yet both maintained a critical approach in their close readings.Īs Clark observes, “Plath criticized Hughes’s poems insightfully and confidently. Halfway through “Red Comet,” Heather Clark’s incandescent, richly researched biography of Sylvia Plath (1932-1963), there’s a revelatory anecdote that strikes at the heart of the creative partnership between the poet and her husband, British writer Ted Hughes. All Nora wants is to turn eighteen and be on her own.

Collins does a grand job of world-building, with a fine economy of words-no unnecessary details bog down either the setting or the invigorating story. His love for his lost father factors heavily into his personality in a stunning turn of events, he discovers the reason for the disappearance of his father-who also plays a role in the prophecy. The relationship between Gregor and two-year-old Boots embodies much of the book's charm, and Gregor himself grows up before readers' eyes.

In 2020, Angela Davis was named one of TIME‘s 100 Most Influential People, with a profile written by Ibram X. Her pioneering work has influenced a generation of scholars, activists, and advocates in countless struggles for justice. Davis has been a freedom fighter, and advocate for intersectional, abolitionist feminism for over fifty years. But, if read carefully, in its historical and literary context, it should do. Unlike Plato’s dialogues, for instance, or René Descartes’s Meditations, it no longer seems to carry a broad philosophical appeal. Yet now the work is the preserve of scholarly medievalists. Although Aristotle’s texts shaped the university curriculum, and Augustine’s thought was ubiquitous, in the period from 800 until about 1600 no other philosophical text could compete with the Consolation in its appeal – not just to the intellectual elite but to a much wider audience too. It was read not only by those who could understand its 6th-century Latin original but also those who studied it in any of a multiplicity of translations, into Old and Middle English, Old French, Old High German, Italian, Spanish and many other languages, including Greek and Hebrew. For nearly a millennium, The Consolation of Philosophy by Boethius was a bestseller throughout Europe.

Perhaps it is time to pack up our theoretical cannons and redeploy. If Wark is right - which she surely is, at least in broad outline if not in every proposition or detail - then the “critics of capitalism” are, and have been for some time, laying siege to a heavenly fortress whose treasury has long since been secreted away, elsewhere. Capital is Dead: Is This Something Worse? is an intervention into the political-economic discourse of the so-called “critical humanities” which is not so much timely as it is long overdue: those who read it should, in the opinion of this reviewer at least, hurry up and listen to what Wark has to say before they waste any more of their time (which is to say, any more of our time, which is precious and dwindling rapidly) chasing the ghosts of dead ideas. Even the failure of rebellion must, surely, be preferable to the indignity of mouthing endless praises to an enemy who holds us in subjection - so why not throw the dice? To play the part of Mammon at the council of Marxists is a task that only an especially brave or reckless individual could take up, but that is exactly what McKenzie Wark, in her new offering from Verso, has done. “How wearisome / Eternity so spent in worship paid / To whom we hate.” So grumbles Milton’s Mammon at the council of angels, fanning the flames of their incipient revolt. Colin Drumm reviews McKenzie Wark’s latest book, ‘Capital Is Dead: Is This Something Worse’ (Verso Books, October 2019). |
