Carol vs The Patriarchy


 "The Roaches Have No King" by Daniel Evans Weiss is complete, and was interesting. Now my attention is fully with "Carol" by Patricia Highsmith, a recommendation from my work LGBT+ book club, and is a perfect indictment of how bad our patriarchal society is.

I recently discovered that my American Amazon Author page has a feed from this blog which you can see here. It only shows on the .com site but not on others. C'est La Vie.

The music is "Stop, In The Name of Love" by The Supremes

The Roaches Document New York Apartment Life At Its Worst

On the final strait of "The Roaches Have No King" by Daniel Evans Weiss and it is full of sexism, racism, misogyny and more, but this is the New York Humans observed by the cockroaches. It is readable and varies between darkly funny and disgusting (even for me), but I have read much worse. I was surprised that this was the only book I could find by the author, I mean have written more than one.

I am also reading "Carol" by Patricia Highsmith, a recommendation from my work LGBT+ book club, so I will have two on the go, and that is not a bad thing.

The Roaches May Have No King But They Are Intelligent And Funny



"The Roaches Have No King" by Daniel Evans Weiss and I will tell you more when I know what's going on. This is a darkly amusing tale of New York Apartment life from the view of cockroaches and possibly other bugs that infest the apartment.

I am also reading "Carol" by Patricia Highsmith, a recommendation from my work LGBT+ book club, so I will have two on the go, and that is not a bad thing.

The Roaches Have No King

 



The Stuart Maconie book "The Pie At Night"  finished in a good night drink, and I enjoyed all the places it took me. Next up is "The Roaches Have No King" by Daniel Evans Weiss and I will tell you more when I know what's going on. It is darkly comic.

I am also reading "Carol" by Patricia Highsmith, a recommendation from my work LGBT+ book club, so I will have two on the go, and that is not a bad thing.

Maconie is also an excellent writer and DJ and worth checking out in print or on the BBC.
