  • Rosalyn Drexler: Likes a Little Humor with Her Humanity
    Rosalyn Drexler: Likes a little humor with her humanity AMY SUTHERLAND JUNE 10, 2016 Artist, novelist, playwright, critic, Rosalyn Drexler obviously never felt compelled to limit herself to one genre over the past six decades. That is why she’s won an Obie Award and an Emmy Award as well as created enough paintings and collages to warrant a retrospective. If you missed the recent exhibit of Drexler’s pop art, “Who Does She Think She Is?,” organized by Brandeis University’s Rose Art Museum, the show travels to the Albright-Knox Gallery in Buffalo, N.Y., this fall. The exhibit catalogue is available from the Rose. BOOKS: What are you reading currently? DREXLER: I was re-reading Kafka’s short story “A Hunger Artist,” and I also just read part of Joan Didion’s “After Henry,” a collection of essays dedicated to her longtime editor Henry Robbins at Simon and Schuster who died in 1979. BOOKS: Who are some of your favorite authors? DREXLER: Balzac, whom I read as a kid. I found out about sex by reading his “Droll Stories.” I didn’t understand the book but thought it was funny, with what these people were up to. I very much enjoyed Gabriel García Márquez’s “One Hundred Years of Solitude.” Te last book of his I read, “Memories of My Melancholy Whores,” however, was slow and not as exciting as his other stuf. I love Nathanael West’s “Te Day of the Locust” and “Miss Lonelyhearts,” and Samuel Beckett’s “Endgame.” I never stopped crying afer reading that because at the end one of the characters climbs a ladder and looks out the window and reports he sees nothing.

  • Woodhouse College Summer Reading List
    Woodhouse College Summer Reading List Read three or more titles from anywhere in this list over the summer. Classics Heart of Darkness, Joseph Conrad It shows both an understanding of the moral bankruptcy of colonial administrations and explores the frail veneer of European ‘civilisation’. It is complex, dense, highly structured – a bit like a rainforest. Crime and Punishment, Fyodor Dostoevsky What are you prepared to do to achieve greatness? Can murder ever be justified? Enter the dark, warped and paranoid world of Raskolnikov, the protagonist of this tense, gripping psychological thriller from one of the Russian masters. The Great Gatsby, F Scott Fitzgerald A classic love story…. or is it? Set in the roaring 1920s, this book is full of parties, glamour and corruption, yet at the heart of the story is a young man with a dream of being with a beautiful girl. You will find yourself following Gatsby’s quest to be with Daisy Fay and questioning whether or not he really is ‘great’. Fitzgerald’s writing is beautifully nuanced, one of the best pieces of writing you could read! Pride and Prejudice, Jane Austen It is a truth universally acknowledged, that anyone wanting to read a good book will not be disappointed by ‘Pride and Prejudice’. This classic love story features a heroine that Jane Austen herself described as “as delightful a creature as ever appeared in print” and introduced Mr Darcy, Mr Collins and Lady Catherine de Bourgh to the world. So sit back and enjoy the excitement of the militia regiment coming to Meryton and the shame of an elopement, and take pity on Mr Bennet whose wife’s nerves have been his ‘old friends’ for the past twenty years.

Rethinking the Canon: Nonconformist Soviet Classics in Post-Soviet Perspective Alexander Zholkovsky I. The Problem of Reinterpretation In the four-plus decades since Stalin's death, the Soviet literary canon has undergone a series of changes. Thus, Fedor Dostoyevsky, Konstantin Leontiev, and Apollon Grigoriev, seen in all their complexity, gradually resumed their pride of place in nineteenth-century literary history, while Gogol was allowed to be more of a conservative thinker and modernist stylist than during the period of High Stalinism.
