The Cry of the Cuckoos

“The book is a valuable tool to approach some significant aspects of what happened in 1965/1966 and especially its aftermath. The book shows that an approach to what happened could and should be multi-layered.” (Fritz Schulze, H-Soz-Kult, hsozkult.de, May 09, 2019)

"More Anguished English proves once and&#160;&#160;for all the Richard Lederer is the illegitimate&#160;&#160;offspring of H.L. Mencken and Dave Barry. Just as I&#160;&#160;always suspected, More Anguished&#160;&#160;English made me laugh so hard I cried on my pants."&#160;&#160;-- Lewis Frumkes, author&#160;&#160;of Metapunctuation.

"Christiensen's lively curiosity informs several quirky and engrossing essays." &#151;Kirkus"Christensen (1616: The World in Motion) a proud generalist and non-academic, addresses a slew of disparate subjects&#133;and proves himself to be voracious reader who can clarify the present with knowledge of the past, accessibly summarize a subject, and share a fine story." &#151;Publishers Weekly"An eclectic and sporadically brilliant book in which an erudite writer takes his readers on a set of historical and cultural birdwalks. " &#151;The Huffington Post"An idiosyncratic world tour of diverse cultural histories, a tour de force of eclectic scholarship, a relief map of the journeys of a restless intellect, Thomas Christensen's River of Ink flows from ancient China to the current Americas with myriad revelations along the way.  Christensen is a genial guide to little-known wonders with a wealth of information and a light touch.         --Stephen Kessler, author of The Tolsoty of the Zulus

&ldquo;Gorgeous.&rdquo; &#8213;io9 &#160;&ldquo;Arresting . . . Able to convey some things that text&mdash;and even a TV show&mdash;never could.&rdquo;&#8213;The New York Post&ldquo;A rich, visceral approach to telling the story.&rdquo;&#8213;Toronto Star&#160;&ldquo;Nault spectacularly transforms lines and color into fear, resignation, desperation, the tiniest glimmers of hope . . .&#160;most piercing throughout are her affecting use of color (red&mdash;'the colour of blood'&mdash;and its portentous hues of orange, crimson, rust) and scale (the indistinguishable handmaids trapped in plain sight). She adds softness when Offred recalls her past, with less-saturated colors for happier memories, thickened, darker lines for the repetitive nightmares.&rdquo;&#8213;Booklist, starred review"Nault spectacularly transforms lines and color into fear, resignation, desperation, and the tiniest glimmers of hope."&#8213;Publishers Weekly, starred review"[Y]ou owe it to yourself to check out Ren&eacute;e Nault's take on the classic dystopian story."&#8213;Bustle&ldquo;There is magic in every detail of Ms. Nault&rsquo;s adaptation, thoughtfulness in each panel, an intentionality about every aspect of it, the costuming, the sets and her interpretation of Gileadean iconography is stark, sometimes shocking and beautifully rendered.&rdquo; &#8213;Good Men Project &#160;&ldquo;There&rsquo;s something about Renee Nault&rsquo;s art that makes the reader feel both closer to the action and completely, terrifyingly, alone . . . This is the power of graphic novels&#8213;the ability to add that extra emotional pull to an already strong story.&rdquo; &#8213;The Geekiary&ldquo;This is great comics. If you agree that the most basic definition of comics is a fluid dance between words and pictures, you will very likely be struck by the beauty of this book . . .
