3 Word Review: โThe Good Houseโ by Tananarive Due -
A terrific concept/conceit for a terrifying modern world clash with older, darker magics; unfortunately, somewhat defanged by its sprawling narrative and a few too tidy and predictable horror tropes.

Essays and book reviews on publishing, writing, meaning, and genre from the fantasy master of craft late in her life.
โCapitalist greed in the publishing industry . . . is a theme which wends its way across several of her essays at the beginning of the 21st century; if nothing else, Le Guin is always transparent in her politics.โ

Review: "Eye Level" by Jenny Xie -
Xie's exploration of the otherness in/of/by place is a potent meditation on alienation and self, on our perception of culture.

Another sketch in the life of Esmond Ring and his hyper-sensitive ears.
โIt is as if the body, the flesh of pubescence around him, the skin of slow-decay in adults, asserts itself.โ

3 Word Review: โNervous Conditionsโ by Tsitsi Dangarembga -
Dangarembga's semi-autobiographical story of a young woman maturing through Rhodesian politics, school, and family prejudices is a fresh and significant local lens where all share responsibility.

It depends on who you ask and when: the barzelletta was a 15th-16th century Italian poem created mostly as secular song, meant to entertain with rhyme, pun, and word play while perhaps offering some didactic lessons.
