Hackney, the next day for scoring a zero on her last three tests, Nora explains that she loathes grades because they cause too much competition. When she is confronted by the principal, Ms. As word spreads, Nora begins to act like a snob and challenges teachers by bringing up topics that have not been taught in class yet. He intentionally tells the school's gossip, Jenny Ashton that Nora is a genius. Soon, Nora reveals to Stephen that she is actually a genius and he comes up with a plan to prove grades don't reflect everything about a student. To encourage Stephen and prove the CMT scores are not important, Nora deliberately gets a bad report card: all D's except for a C in spelling.ĭue to all the D's that Nora gets, her parents contact the school, and Nora starts to receive special attention. When their CMT (Connecticut Mastery Test) scores come out, Stephen's low scores persuade him that he is stupid as students start treating the scores as a competition reflecting their intelligence. She becomes interested in one of her schoolfellow, Stephen, and they become friends. To disguise her intellect, Nora observes and emulates her classmates so she doesn't stand out. Nora is secretly a genius but does not tell anyone for fear that she will be thought of as "different".ĩ year old Nora is not a normal child, and she figures this out as a little kid. The story is narrated by a 5th-grade girl, Nora Rose Rowley. The Report Card is a children's novel by Andrew Clements, first published in 2004. Miranda Bay by Susan Tarr5/26/2023 In MIRANDA BAY I am both Miranda and Pansy. He even managed wry humor.Īre you like any of the characters (and how so)? He epitomized the people in those days in those circumstances. Malcolm! He is my reluctant hero from PHENOMENA. I started writing about Seacliff Mental Hospital 20 years ago, wanting to get Malcolm’s story on paper before I forgot it. When did you decide to write in your chosen genre(s) ? Well, often people would say, Susan, you should write a book. Clearly there were no other budding authors in my family.ĭid anyone influence you / encourage you to become a writer? I’d get 1 or 2 pages in return for my 20+ page efforts. Living in Kenya for so long, cut off from my New Zealand family, I wrote long letters home. I write in several different genres so whether I am up or down, there’s always some place to write about it. Much of my personality comes out through my writing. Please tell us more about yourself as writer and as person. Today’s Saturday Interview guest is historical (amongst other genres) novelist Susan Tarr, who should be well-known on this blog by now. The Stream of Life by Clarice Lispector5/26/2023 Lispector was translated by the poets Giuseppe Ungaretti and Elizabeth Bishop, and in Rio she was a known and recognizable celebrity. The Brazilian singer Cazuza read Lispector’s novel Água Viva 111 times. But her return to Brazil in 1959, after divorcing in order to give herself over to her drive to write, commenced a decade when she was at the absolute peak of Brazilian literary society, considered one of the nation’s all-time greatest novelists, and contributing a weekly column ( crónica) to Rio’s leading newspaper. Her first novel, Near to the Wild Heart, appeared in 1943 and was an immediate and huge sensation, celebrated as the finest Portugese-language achievement yet in, as one critic put it, penetrating “the depths of the psychological complexity of the modern soul.” She struggled to get her subsequent novel published, after marrying a diplomat and moving first to Italy, then Switzerland, then Washington, DC. And yet she became quite famous, a national icon of Brazil whose face adorned postage stamps. She wrote novels that are fractured, cerebral, fundamentally nonnarrative (unless you count as plot a woman standing in her maid’s room gazing at a closet for nearly two hundred pages). CLARICE LISPECTOR had a diamond-hard intelligence, a visionary instinct, and a sense of humor that veered from naïf wonder to wicked comedy. 20000 leagues under the sea author5/25/2023 While this book is nearly 200 years old, the creative concept of this science fiction classic as well as the easy to understand plot and prose really hold up.Ī Warning: If you are considering picking up this book… Regardless, the ever present tension surrounding the group’s ideas of freedom and the air of mystery around Captain Nemo kept my attention throughout the MANY detailed descriptions of marine life. I wish there had been less focus on fish and more on Nemo's backstory. This is what I would consider a classic "dad book," complete with an all-male cast of characters going on an adventure and A LOT of long, dry descriptions of random fish and crustaceans. While Pierre thoroughly enjoys his globetrotting adventures with Nemo, Ned grows increasingly frustrated by their lack of freedom and longs for an opportunity to escape. With seemingly no other choice, they accept the deal. The submarine is owned by reclusive billionaire Captain Nemo, who offers the confused trio the opportunity to travel the world in his luxurious submarine, though they will need to leave society and their lives behind. French marine biologist Pierre Arannax, his servant Conseil, and Canadian harpooner Ned Land all get thrown overboard during an ocean expedition and are picked up by an ultra-fast, massive deepwater submarine. What my bones know5/25/2023 I’ve suffered from anxiety and depression since I was 12. I loved her so much that I kept seeing her via Skype after I moved across the country to New York when I was 26. My sessions with her quickly moved beyond boy talk, and we began discussing my months-long bouts of depression and my constant anxiety around friendships, work and family. My sessions began when I was 22, when I lived in San Francisco and needed help with a very San Francisco problem: an INTJ tech-nerd boyfriend. The reason I know about the poem in her office is the same reason I can’t believe she’s only telling me my diagnosis now: I’ve been her client for eight years. My therapist’s warm office is in San Francisco, and I am in my dark, freezing, six-by-six-foot office in New York City, talking to her through a small window on my computer. In the back of the room is a framed copy of the poem Desiderata.īut I’m not really here. She gazes at me from her serene office, where sunshine glows through her gauzy curtains, birdsong bursts through the windows, and one of those little fountains with a giant marble on it burbles, which I guess is supposed to be relaxing. “Do you want to know your diagnosis?” I blink and stare at my therapist. This story is part of the May 21 edition of Good Weekend.
