The Knowledge Redux: September 2006
http://tkredux.blogspot.com/2006_09_01_archive.html
An unconscionably pretentious attempt at erudition. Thursday, September 07, 2006. A friend of mine once told me she thought John Updike’s. So it is with a bit of crass and flippant zeal that Updike tackles what many regard to be his magnum opus (indeed, two of these books won Pulitzer prizes). Was published in 1990 and is the last in the series, save for the novella. Posted by RD @ 7:53 PM. View my complete profile. Fieldwork, by Mischa Berlinski. Pastoralia, by George Saunders. Snow, by Orhan Pamuk.

We were able to get a few really great pictures. As usual, the boys won, but it was probably because they always cheat! Afterward, we played bunko. Kristins Annu...

An unconscionably pretentious attempt at erudition. Friday, February 16, 2007. A Little English Magic. Somewhere at the fringe of my mind resides an unmoored remembrance of an article read. Unmoored because I can't remember the reference. In it, the author, a Christian, takes issue with the strain of fundamendalist extremism that has placed. Series, but rather fallen into disuse.

http://tkredux.blogspot.com/2006_12_01_archive.html
An unconscionably pretentious attempt at erudition. Wednesday, December 06, 2006. A long wait has produced a fine review by the dependable Ms. Josselyn.

In these in-between times, what she tells are the smaller realities of life, the ...

The Knowledge Redux: December 2005
http://tkredux.blogspot.com/2005_12_01_archive.html
An unconscionably pretentious attempt at erudition. Friday, December 30, 2005. As editor, I'm proud to say that TKR has been fecund of late. Its contributors have been working hard at penning new reviews and the results are there for the readers to enjoy. Perhaps it's the spirit of Christmas in the air. Anyway, here is a review of mine on Evelyn Waugh's. Which admittedly doesn't interact with the book itself much at all. - RD. Though one of his signature achievements, is more of a modern classic; reachin...
