![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() The novel was a finalist for the Giller Prize, and last week it won the Rogers Writers’ Trust Fiction Prize. Gimme a break! Get on with it!”Īnd yet, Canadians have pushed “All My Puny Sorrows” up the bestseller list. “We get it, we know what sad is, and then the whole book is basically a description of the million and one ways in which our protagonist is sad. I know, I know, what could sound less appealing than an almost plotless novel about the grinding stone of suicidal depression? Even the narrator’s mom says she has had it with novels about sad protagonists. This is the story of a little group - “a tainted family, deranged” - that revolves around a woman determined to kill herself. ![]() And now comes this unbearably sad, improbably witty novel inspired by the suicides of her father and only sister. Her next book, “ The Flying Troutmans,” drove us through comedy and pathos on a strange family road trip. I’ve been in love with Toews since 2004, when she published “ A Complicated Kindness,” a wincingly funny story about a 16-year-old girl trapped in a small Mennonite town. As that discussion continues in homes, legislatures and places of worship, please make room for “ All My Puny Sorrows,” by Canadian writer Miriam Toews. The story of Brittany Maynard, the terminally ill woman in Oregon who committed suicide earlier this month after making her intention public, forces us to consider - or repress - wrenching questions about how life ends. ![]() ![]() ![]() If the title does not state that the cover is virgin, it will have logos/trade dress. ![]() Virgin covers will be explicitly stated in the title. ![]() Final art may vary and will have trade dress (logos).

Multi-digit synergies were quantified using indices of co-variation between digit forces and moments of force across unperturbed trials. The aperture showed non-monotonic changes with a large, fast decrease and further increase, ending up with a smaller distance between the thumb and the fingers as compared to unperturbed trials. In such trials, the hand stopped at a higher vertical position and rotated into pronation or supination depending on the expected torque. In a few trials, the handle was unexpectedly fixed to the table and the digits slipped off the sensors. A load could be attached off-center to provide a pronation or supination torque. The subjects performed very quick vertical movements of a handle into a target. Synergies were analyzed at the thumb-virtual finger (VF) level (VF is an imaginary digit with the mechanical action equivalent to that of the four actual fingers) and at the individual finger level. ![]() ![]() We used the framework of the equilibrium-point hypothesis (in its updated form based on the notion of referent configuration) to investigate the multi-digit synergies at two levels of a hypothetical hierarchy involved in prehensile actions. ![]() ![]() ![]() Only seven out of 20 engaged couples are together today. The show had a pretty low success rate with its couples (perhaps due to the fact they would be fined $50,000 for leaving without producer approval, per Business Insider?!). And during season 3, all five couples made it down the aisle, but only two said "I do." (Spoiler: They're both still together today). ![]() ICYMI, only two couples actually got married during season 2. Netflix's dating "experiment" Love Is Blind recently wrapped up its fourth season (with a "live" reunion that hit the streamer April 16), and the show has a lot of viewers wondering which of the five new couples made it to Happily Ever After.Īt the end of each season, the remaining engaged couples meet at the altar to either say "I do" or publicly end their relationship in front of a room full of family and friends. ![]() Warning: Major Love Is Blind spoilers ahead!

While danger stalks the humans from Zoey’s old life, she begins to realize that the very powers that make her so unique might also threaten those she loves. Then the unthinkable happens: Human teenagers are being killed, and all the evidence points to the House of Night. Best of all, she actually has a boyfriend. She finally feels like she belongs, even gets chosen as the Leader of the Dark Daughters. ![]() Fledgling vampyre Zoey Redbird has managed to settle in at the House of Night finishing school. ![]() ![]() ![]() Call it a testament to human redemption or a deconstruction of religious & moral belief: it’s nothing short of remarkable. Despite it’s poignant content, it’s an engaging read because of the hidden religious elements – most of which Steinbeck is developing a commentary on. East of Eden is a treasure hunt filled with Biblical easter eggs & moral gems. Based on the Biblical story of Cain & Abel (Genesis 4), Steinbeck’s work could best be described as a parallel of the infamous tale. John Steinbeck is known for many extraordinary works, but East of Eden is something so spectacular that I struggle to understand how a fallible, self-oriented human mind could concoct it. And now that you don’t have to be perfect, you can be goodĮast of Eden was the first novel I ever read that forced me to question practically everything I knew to be true. ![]() ![]() How do I join ROTC at the college I want to attend?
