    • The Loa Narrator
    • In reading Continental Drift, a tragedy in every sense, I was struck by how usual the novel was in its structure and its distinct narrator. Banks employs a Haitian loa (a spirit of the dead) to...

    • You are missing the point . . .
    • Affliction is a movie about how childhood trauma rears its head in adulthood and makes a misery of a good man's life. Wade is not in any way a brutal man; he is a man who is making a valiant effort...
