Behrman
256 wordsI agree with S. N Behrman on that Holden is very funny on how he sees and deals with life. Holden has some funny encounters with 'outside' life according to Behrman; but what could be considered outside or what would be 'inside'. I dont believe in any definition or state to label things in life. Holden being beaten as a result of not paying the prostitute doesn't seem to be something to laugh about. Behrman quotes 'Holden's difficulties affect his nervous system but never his vision'. If this wa...

Next Big Thing
895 wordsDeath of strong feelings The Next Big Thing by Anita BrooknerViking 16.99, pp 244 It's a shock to come across a novel of Anita Brookner's with as jaunty a title as The Next Big Thing, but the jaunty mood is confined to the title.

Brookner's fiction of the 1980's was an odd mixture of astringency and wallowing: reading Hotel du Lac, for instance, for which she won the Booker P...
