Attualmente non vi sono conversazioni su questo libro. ![]() ![]() I was disappointed with most of the essays in this book, but thankfully not all of them. "Showing the Scars," in particular, by Jacob Clifton delves into the aspects of Urban Fantasy that most interest me. He posits that the supernatural love triangle is a communal effort of our culture to cope with the myriad of sexual and gendered changes of the last 40 years. That is the heart of my research interests, there are too many patterns throughout this genre, and they sell WAY too well, for these elements to be purely coincidental. So, worth reading, worth my time, but the first half is also worth my complaints in that first week. I am pleased with the last essay.

Laurell K. Hamilton's Anita Blake, Vampire Hunter series is a literary sensation, thanks to its strong female hero, well-fleshed (both literally and literarily) characters and unabashed attitude toward sex. The world Hamilton has created is powerfully compelling and stunningly complex--and it gets deeper, richer and more perilous, with every book. Straddling the series' dominant themes of sex and power, Ardeur gives Anita fans a deeper look into the dynamics, both personal political, that have kept readers fascinated throughout the run of the series. Why is the ardeur the very best thing that could have happened to Anita, personally (aside from all the sex it requires her to have with hot men)? How is Anita's alternate United States a logical legal extension of our own? And as the series continues, what other bargains might Anita have to make with herself and others in order to keep the people she loves safe from harm? The collection includes essay introductions by Hamilton, giving context and extra insight into each essay's subject. Non sono state trovate descrizioni di biblioteche |
