Are the works of Robert Greene worth the read?

You can read my favorite short story, The Diamond as Big as the Ritz by F. Scott Ftizgerald, here: http://www.sc.edu/fitzgerald/diamond/diamond.html

EDIT: Here's a better version. http://maudevintage.com/jamesharvey/files/diamond.html I swapped the colours so it's easiler on the eyes.

i think miller is great, but i recommend reading black spring first. if you have, and you liked it, capricorn - and to a lesser degree, cancer - are both more moody. black spring is far more amoral and almost emotionally neutral, beyond his insane swings into ridiculous mania.

N. Scott Momaday wrote:
A single knoll rises out of the plain in Oklahoma, north and west of the Wichita range. For my people it is an old landmark, and they gave it the name Rainy Mountain. There, in the south of the continental trough, is the hardest weather in the world. In winter there are blizzards, which come down the Williston corridor, bearing hail and sleet. Hot tornadic winds arise in the spring, and in summer the prairie is an anvil's edge. The grass turns brittle and brown, and it cracks beneath your feet. There are green belts along the rivers and creeks, linear groves of hickory and pecan, willow and witch hazel. At a distance in July or August the steaming foliage seems almost to writhe in fire. Great green and yellow grasshoppers are everywhere in the tall grass, popping up like corn to sting the flesh, and tortoises crawl about on the red earth, going nowhere in the plenty of time. Loneliness is there as an aspect of the land. All things in the plain are isolate; there is no confusion of objects in the eye, but one hill or one tree or one man. At the slightest elevation you can see to the end of the world. To look upon that landscape in the early morning, with the sun at your back, is to lose the sense of proportion. Your imagination comes to life, and this, you think, is where Creation was begun.


-from House Made of Dawn, and later modified in a section of The Way to Rainy Mountain.

Momaday writes oblique perspectives in direct language. One segment of House Made of Dawn focuses on the diary and letters of an American Indian Catholic Priest in the late 1800's. He succumbs to madness as his acolytes--with whom he may have had some physical intimacy--grow older and explore additional avenues of faith in the community. It is a vicious, alluring tale.

Can we ask for suggestions here? I'd like to learn a little about programming. I don't plan on going too fast or shooting for the stars, but I want something that is geared to the novice. Most tutorials or materials I've read that are for beginners aren't for normal beginners but beginners with some experience, which is of no help. Online tutorials tend to jump a bit beyond around the second or third chapter, going from explaining terms to the basic Hello World and then shooting past the next step that I need. I hear the Head First series, obnoxious covers aside, are actually pretty good.

A problem I encountered - an ongoing thread at Qt3 is about this - is what language to start with. Since I'm looking at this more as a hobby, I'd go with anything that has the kind of documentation I need. Suggestions?

Never date a writer.

Quote:
Mandy,

I know you don't want to speak with me, but I just wanted to thank you for forcing me to realize my own repugnance, the blackness of heart and vanity of spirit I've ignored. So thank you, and I wanted to say that you will love again, sooner than you think. With your tenacity and strength of character, you deserve someone who loves you and who is actually happy to see you every day. Through your inadequacy to fulfill me, I have realized my own egotism. I can' t thank you enough.

I know I'm in no position to ask you for a favor, but I am currently vacationing in New York City, making it damn hard to edit news stories. I know you are interning all day, but if you could edit the stories I've attached I would deeply appreciate it. I believe that you editing my stories would make things less weird between us and would help forge the road to friendship. You have no reason to like me, but I would like to be your friend. I miss you.

You may be wondering why I did not email someone else and ask them to fill in for me, but I chose not to because of their intense hatred toward me. Since we broke up, I have started to realize that the reason people put up with me was because I was dating you. None of those people will ever be my friend, and The Post is just a job for me.

Again, I am sorry that because of me, you are broken. I am a terrible person because your love couldn't sustain me, and what I did to you is the most terrible thing I've ever done. Everything you ever said to me was completely true, and I feel awful.

Please let me know if you can edit those stories. Thanks

Josh.

Mike and I both read "The Dreams our Stuff is Made Of" and I believe that both of us came away impressed. Though Disch's bitchy prose reminded me too much of Truman Capote. Or at least how I imagine Truman Capote; I've never actually read him.

yeah, the only down part of that book is when he got all pissy about burroughs and other "regular" writers using the trappings of sci fi and sometimes being identified with the genre; it was very much an angry neckbeard nerdpocalypse moment. purity is for puritans; or perhaps sci fi authors as a whole smoke too much weed.

i finished this earth of mankind recently, and will move onto book two. that this guy turned an oral story from almost two decades in a prison camp into a well-paced set of books in only a few years is absolutely amazing. i'll be durned if i can see the slightest hint of marxism-leninism that got toer tossed in jail in the first place, but that's military juntas for you.

That's something that sci-fi authors tend to do on a very large scale. It's embarrassing, really. It almost as common as that other annoying sci-fi trope, "aren't we all living in a sci-fi world now, guys."

This is related, my favorite PKD interview.

http://www.philipkdickfans.com/frank/hour25.htm

This one is also very good.

My girlfriend asked me to read Watchmen, so I did.

I just can't put myself in the time this was made for. I realize it was important, but it's also really, really a product of its time. Most of the themes it explores are done better in Dark Knight Returns. The ones that aren't are, well, kinda silly. No, it's not the best utilitarian parable ever. Having a character who can see into the future kinda kills all the debate over utilitarianism anyway--hence the cheating "oh the future is staticy here!" nonsense.

My sister came over last month and left Joan Didion's The Year of Magical Thinking, so I sat down and read it in a single sitting. It's a memoir of when her husband died from a massive heart attack at the same time when her daughter is in the hospital from a mysterious infection that leads to her condition waxing and waning through the book. The book is already raw and painful and made only more so by the fact that her daughter died months after the book was published. The book does an incredible job of trying to put you in the shoes of somebody who's suffered immense emotional trauma. One of the techniques she uses is subtle repetition to recreate the constant revisiting of memories and pain as the brain struggles to deal with loss. It is probably the best piece of writing about grief that I've read.

A couple months before that I read Mishima's Patriotism. It seemed like a pretty obvious metaphor for how Japan has rejected its essential nature, with the Lieutenant standing in the place of the Japanese martial tradition, only idealized in Mishima's eyes instead of being the weak men who surrendered to the West and allowed the country to become emasculated, taking their citizentry (Rukio) along with them. That's my half-assed high-school literature analysis anyway. The prose is beautiful, even if I think he's a nutty nationalist.

I recently got Barzun's Dawn to Decandance for 50 cents (hardcover, even) and I look forward to slowly plowing through it.

Dhex, why am I supposed to like Henry Miller? I read nearly 200 pages of Tropic of Cancer over the last few days, and I decided I can't stand it anymore. I mean yeah whatever maybe I'm a slave to conventions, but I'm not THAT much of a slave to conventions. Seriously, what gives?

i think he's awesome. even if he did invent the livejournal. but he definitely talks like he's completely schizoid.

my favorite is black spring; the most accessible is colossus of maroussi (sp?) or the oranges of big sur. capricorn is better than cancer.

I'm currently reading Procopius' Secret Wars: Books I-II (Persian Wars). Pretty good! You get all sorts of the near pointless stories that old historians are known for but interesting all the same.

I also found an issue of Edge at Books-a-Million and have been going through it. I miss old Next-Generation so bad now. The price was cheaper than I had expected, $8.99.

finished the sling and the stone - worthwhile reading if you're interested in new trends in warfare.

also almost done with a 1960s dissertation by a british dude on the history of the wobblies. quite good! the final splinter between the centralists/communists/soviet pawns (take your pick) and the syndicalists/anarchists/crazypants segments is very good.

http://fleursdumal.org/ - Collection of Baudelaire's poetry
http://realitystudio.org/ - William S. Burroughs resource
http://bookkake.com/ - Now this is very interesting, and I'm compelled to order their set of books in spite of the price because it's the sort of initiative I approve of

Good books there, too.
