![]() ![]() ![]() Artifacts, Childs argues, are best left where they originally landed, or in many cases where they were placed or buried with deliberate intent, but he acknowledges that achieving this ideal is challenging, given that the reasons are not rooted in archaeology as much as they are grounded in philosophy. ![]() “From the lowliest dirt geeks to credentialed excavators to the world’s biggest antiquities traffickers,” Childs says there are ethical and moral issues raised each time an artifact is removed from its initial location. In his deeply fascinating book “Finders Keepers: A Tale of Archaeological Plunder and Obsession,” author Craig Childs lifts the veil on the capricious world of antiquities, revealing what he calls the “underbelly of archaeology.” All humans leave a mark on this Earth, and while yesterday’s “stuff” is often considered trash, time inevitably turns much of that refuse into treasure. The story is a fascinating one, and it is a narrative in which all humans - past and present - are players. Mankind’s history is a curious thing, owned by all, but possessed by none.

After all this time, the reader expects to be farther along in the plot. The novel ends a little depressing as the characters are leaving to still find Laia’s brother, which means there will be a sequel. The romantic plotlines that were thrown in felt forced and dull. The writing was mediocre, and forgettable it felt like there was too much purple prose that the plot got drowned in it. It took chapters for plots and characters to develop. The plot was generic, and at times felt like it was dragging on. This novel was all right, nothing really jumped out at the reader that was extraordinary. Their two lives cross, and it seems to be love at first sight. On the other hand, Elias is the best solider in school, and is sent to become the next Emperor. Laia’s brother gets arrested fir treason, and she spends the majority of the novel trying to find him, and set him free. It’s funny, I couldn’t stand the first novel, but the second & third I really enjoyed- go figure! An Ember In The AshesĪn Ember in the Ashes by: Sabaa Tahir: Laia and Elias live separate lives, but are brought together due to the Martial Empire.

![]() One of my other legal names is Staudt, and a beloved former professor introduced me to an also-beloved major funder of the MFA program where the professor taught and from which I’d graduated five years earlier. ![]() I was confused once, 10 years ago, for Elizabeth Strout. But in the lead-up to my debut novel’s release, I’ve been fixated on disentangling us, furious and fearful that anyone would ever conflate this stan for capitalism with me, an outspoken progressive, two-time Obama canvasser, and sensitive bleeding heart. I probably shouldn’t write this essay, as it will further entangle us, and it’s maybe not the best look, since my debut novel, The Other’s Gold, is being published by the same corporation that publishes this other Elizabeth Ames, and, worse still, she writes about actual gold, further braiding us together in the SEO wires and tunnels that thrum under Google, under everything. I haven’t read any of these books, and I don’t plan to. ![]() This other Elizabeth Ames has written or co-authored books with titles like How Capitalism Will Save Us, and one with a long subhead about how repealing Obamacare will help restore hope and prosperity to America. ![]() If you were to Google me today (a hot day in Boston, in late July, during the third stifling summer of Donald Trump’s presidency) you’d find my photograph above four books by another Elizabeth Ames. ![]() ![]() ![]() You feel uncomfortable reading it, like Alex strapped to the chair in Clockwork Orange being taught to feel sick at atrocity. "Psychonaut is a book of mad impulses, inner vision, sadism, escape and belief. She tells her compelling story in a hypnotic, distinctive voice that brings her eerie world vividly to life."
