Oh! that my young life were a lasting dream!
My spirit not awakening, till the beam
Of an Eternity should bring the morrow.
Yes! though that long dream were of hopeless sorrow,
'Twere better than the cold reality
Of waking life, to him whose heart must be,
And hath been still, upon the lovely earth,
A chaos of deep passion, from his birth.
But…

I've just read my first ever Woolf's novel, To The Lighthouse.

Man, I'm so tired now...

Not my favourite novel by any mean, but still quite interesting, mostly for the writing style an narrative mechanisms.

Although I didn't enjoy my time in the company of some English upper class intellectuals in the early 20th century, vacationing in Scotland...

The second chapter alone though, was worth the whole effort!

Impatient for relief, toward the fight
The hungry garrison their eye-balls strain:
Vain was the Frenchman's skill, his valour vain;
And even then, when eager hope almost
Had moved their irreligious lips to prayer,
Averting from the fatal scene their sight,
They breathed the imprecations of despair.
For Wellesley's star hath risen ascendant…

A Christmas Coral: Great Books That Never Were 🪸

A Christmas Carol. In Prose. Being a Ghost Story of Christmas is a famous Charles Dickens novella from 1843. It is not as good as the Muppet Christmas Carol special film (1992) of the same work (the one with Michael Caine in it).

However, better yet is the 1991 classic A Christmas Coral by novelist Dick Charles. This was his last work he ever had published, for he was abducted by aliens in 1993 and hasn’t been heard from since. Thus, this beautiful book is a testament to his existence prior to abandoning life on Earth.

Just Keep Swimming in A Christmas Coral

“It is a fair, even-handed, noble adjustment of things, that while there is infection in disease and sorrow, there is nothing in the world so irresistibly contagious as laughter and good humour. Oh, except whooping cough syndrome. That’s pretty contagious…”

The story follows the life of Ebenezer Scurvy in 1762, a pirate whom is a bit of a miserable prick. However, when he’s mercilessly attacked by a great white shark the blood loss leads to him viewing the world in a more upbeat way.

As he floats about in the ocean with a limb missing, he recalls his life in a series of hallucinations. The chapters go like this:

1. Prologue
2. Birth
3. Childhood
4. Formative years at Yarr University
5. SHIVER ME TIMBERS!!!
6. Recession
7. More recession
8. Plague outbreak
9. Scurvy outbreak
10. Pirating years
11. Shark attack and limb loss
12. Further pontifications
13. Death and absorption by the ocean
14. Epilogue

A Christmas Coral is notorious for its tediousness. The work is 1,100 pages and rambles a fair bit. It also makes references to more modern life, which is somewhat anachronistic given the work is supposed to be set in 1762.

“For it is good to be children sometimes, and never better than at Christmas, when its mighty Founder was a child Himself. And if you’re unaware about that reference, I’m on about Macaulay Culkin in Home Alone.”

Many literary critics were at pains to point out Macaulay Culkin could not possibly have starred in Home Alone circa 1762 as:

• Macaulay Culkin wasn’t alive
• Cinema didn’t exist

To set the record straight on this matter, Professional Moron reached out via telepathy to Dick Charles for a comment. He declined to comment. As such, his legacy is in ruins and this book is stupid woopid.

Addendum Thesis: Is The Christmas Coral Even Related to Christmas in Any Way?

We’re ending this review on a mini-dissertation, for there’s much scholarly musing over whether A Christmas Coral is, indeed, a work of Xmas-related literature. There are three core postulations:

1. Yes, it is
2. No, it is not
3. Maybe

Compelling arguments, all, but we tend to side on the front of “maybe” as it’s the most apathetic. Yet, on reflection, we feel we may change our stance to “yes” as that’s the most nonsensical, but plausible.

We mean, it’s there in the title: A Christmas Coral.

The work may not go on to have anything to do about Christmas, or corals for that matter, but it’s there in the name and, therefore, that is a convincing argument (if one a tad childlike in its reasoning). Plus, the book references Macaulay Culkin in Home Alone and that’s about as Xmas as it gets, eh?

The acorn you plant in the morning will not give shade at noon;
And the thornless cactus must be bred by year on year of toil.
But listen, my brothers, listen; it is not ever the way,
For the roots of the poison ivy plant you cannot pull too soon;
If you would better your garden and make the most of your soil,
Hurry and dig up the evil things and cast them out…

Died this day: 08/25/1995 (b. 09/24/1934) John Kilian Houston Brunner was a British author of science fiction novels and stories. His 1968 novel Stand on Zanzibar, about an overpopulated world, won the 1969 Hugo Award for best science fiction novel and the BSFA Award the same year.

The book jacket for John Brunner's Stand on Zanzibar features a tall, narrow rectangular design set against a solid, matte black background, consisting of a thin spine and a larger front cover. The title "STAND ON ZANZIBAR" is displayed in large, bold, white, all-caps sans-serif typography at the top of both panels. On the spine, "JOHN BRUNNER" is printed directly above the title. On the front cover, the title is centered at the top, followed by the subult-text "A NOVEL BY" and then "JOHN BRUNNER" in large, bold, white, all-caps letters. Below the author's name on the cover, "DOUBLEDAY SCIENCE FICTION" appears in a small, vibrant red, sans-serif font. This same red text is repeated at the bottom of the spine. Designed by S. A. Summit, Inc., the central visual element of both panels is a dense, high-contrast, stylized illustration using black, white, and deep pink/magenta tones. The imagery depicts a massive, tightly packed crowd stretching from the top to the bottom edge of the frame. Rendered in a grainy, halftone, or distressed print style with heavy shadows, the individuals appear as silhouettes or stark, high-contrast shapes. Many faces and figures are partially obscured by dense, stippled texture and deep black voids; while some figures seem to wear hats or formal clothing, specific details are lost to the graphic, high-contrast style.

Hey, literary folk: I'm reading Ursula K. LeGuin's "Always Coming Home" via Libby, and it's amazingly good. (fn) I want to buy myself a copy, and must choose between a regular edition as published in 1985 and an expanded edition prepared with her collaboration shortly before her death. I've found that expanded/revised editions almost never are as good as the originals (eg Orwell's "Homage to Catalonia"), but it would be interesting to read the two additional chapters, her essays about it, etc. Is anyone here familiar with both versions so they can offer advice?

(fn) Mind-blowingly good. Like, "I haven't finished it yet but it could end up in my top 10 books of all time" good. Its blending of narrative and poetry and culture and myth remind me of Toomer's great and underremembered "Cane." Powerfully relevant to where we find ourselves today.
