Books

From Isabel Allende, a Novel of Three Immigrants and a Brooklyn Misadventure

Two professors aid an undocumented worker following an accident that launches a trio of narratives about life lived across America’s borders in “In the Midst of Winter.”

Political position is not story telling skill.
Fashion does not produce Joseph Conrad.

Watching

How Much Watching Time Do You Have This Weekend?

Three shows, three ways to kick back and feel the TV. Deep thoughts ahead.

Your choice.

Sooner is better.  As soon as you can is best.

What Is the Health and Nutritional Value of Mushrooms?

Mushrooms are a “powerhouse of nutrition” and not a white food to be avoided, said one nutritionist.

Bad science and still interesting.

I like mushrooms.  I will forage them with care.

Opinion

The Mad King Flies His Flag

This monarch has control over the crown jewels of America’s public land. They are not in safe hands.

There is no end to the perfidy of the Trump administration.

More College Students Seem to Be Majoring in Perfectionism

New data indicates that perfectionism, especially when influenced by social media, has increased by 33 percent since 1989.

Living is learned. Living is a large set of skills.

Perfection comes with practice.

Practice takes time and attention.

On Stage Was Springsteen, in the Audience, Chris Christie

In his first night out as a private citizen, Chris Christie, the former governor of New Jersey, headed into New York City to catch a show by his idol, Bruce Springsteen.

An ugly mind attending an obsession.

Movies

An Award-Winning Actor Who Worries He Doesn’t Have Enough to Offer

The “Shape of Water” actor Richard Jenkins says that over his decades-long career he has had to constantly battle this fear.

He gets help.

You do not need that kind of help.

Sooner is better.     As soon as you can is best.

Video: A Mother’s Decision to Live

Yael’s mother suffered from postpartum depression, and ultimately committed suicide. Now a mother herself, would she leave her own sons to the same fate?

It is necessary. 
It may be art.

For lack of a better label, call it art.
