Snowmageddon!
Posted on | February 2, 2011 | Comments Off
If you’re trapped in a slightly chilly apartment somewhere in the Midwest, and you didn’t make it to the library before the attack of the thunder snow, I have a solution for you.
First – check out “A Good Man is Hard to Find” by Flannery O’Connor. We talk about this story all the time in my classes, yet none of my teachers have actually taught it.
And if you like it, buy the book!
Second – prepare to have your mind blown by James W. Perkinson’s “Shamanism, Racism, and Hip Hop Culture: Essays on White Supremacy and Black Subversion.” Feel some horror with me when you realize that this awesome book is out of print!!! It’s a travesty.
Third – As the wind picks up and the lights grow dim, pretend you’re in Rochester’s mansion with Jane Eyre. It’s a classic, it’s got everything you need (horror, adventure, romance) and when the movie comes out this year you can be fully prepared to scream “that’s not what happens in the book!” at the screen.
