Below are new Deal Me In posts since last week’s update. We’re almost to the halfway point!
Dale at Mirror With Clouds writes about John Updike’s story “Tomorrow and Tomorrow and So Forth” https://mirrorwithclouds.wordpress.com/2015/06/17/john-updike-tomorrow-and-tomorrow-and-so-forth/ this week was also time for Dale’s “Bradbury of the Month” and he share “his latest favorite Bradbury story” – “The Flying Machine” – with us https://mirrorwithclouds.wordpress.com/2015/06/19/bradbury-of-the-month-june-the-flying-machine/
Katherine at The Writerly Reader read and posted about Nikolai Leskov’s “The Steel Flea” https://katenread.wordpress.com/2015/06/20/deal-me-in-week-25-the-steel-flea/ and there is a link to a card trick video for her eight of hearts. 🙂
I read Kyle Minor’s “The Truth and all Its Ugly” https://bibliophilica.wordpress.com/2015/06/19/the-truth-and-all-its-ugly-by-kyle-minor/
Jennifer at Military History read Katey Schultz’s story “My Son wanted a Notebook” https://wisepursuits.wordpress.com/2015/06/15/deal-me-in-2015-week-15-my-son-wanted-a-notebook/
“o” at Behold the Stars stretched the DMI rules (which, paradoxically, is permitted and even encouraged by the DMI rules) and ’went back for more’ when Prosper Merimee’s short story “The Storming of the Redoubt” left her still hungry so also read the author’s “Colomba.” Read her post here http://beholdthestars.blogspot.co.uk/2015/06/the-storming-of-redoubt-and-colomba-by.html
Tracy at Bitter Tea and Mystery read Sara Paretsky’s story “Freud at Thirty Paces” http://bitterteaandmystery.blogspot.co.uk/2015/06/freud-at-thirty-paces-by-sara-paretsky.html
DEAL ME IN EXTRA
Have you ever heard of bibliotherapy? I hadn’t and found this article in the New Yorker interesting: http://www.newyorker.com/culture/cultural-comment/can-reading-make-you-happier?intcid=mod-most-popular
Can you identify the author below, who is featured this week by one of our participants? (hint: it’s not Sara Paretsky)
