Sobre IBD

Detective fiction is said to have begun in 1841 with Edgar Allan Poe’s “The Murders in the Rue Morgue.” There are antecedents to Poe, but Poe is the progenitor for most Americans.The genre continues to this day with writers like Sue Grafton producing a whole series of books featuring private detective Kinsey Millhone. Others abound as indicated by the best-seller lists. Baxter is my version of a private detective.

    Stuart Evans’s first novel is a comedy-of-ill-manners set in a nouveau riche milieu: a fantastic satirical performance and hyper-referential homage to masters past and present. Paul Keller is the Stephen Dedalus of the piece, the son of Robert and Sylvie, whose internal monologue is spliced into the action, and whose incestuous feelings for his sister lead to an increase in his...

  • Venus and Adonis and the Rape of Lucrece
    Donald Richardson
    Neither Venus and Adonis nor the Rape of Lucrece is widely read. Both poems were quite popular during Shakespeare’s time, however, and each gives promise of future development of the playwright’s later skills. Still, as the Riverside Shakespeare says, 'Venus and Adonis . . . is an Ovidian poem that does not fully succeed' (1798). One might assert this about the Rape of Lucrece ...

  • Unto the High Places
    Donald Richardson
    I have pondered the contemplative life, wondering how it could be useful or applicable to one in the twenty-first century. Might it be useful-even in this age of high-speed electronics, of smart phones, and Wikipedia-or should it be consigned to the annals of history to days when life was apparently simpler and quotidian challenges easier to resolve? Reduced to its essentials, ...

  • Complete the Two Noble Kinsmen
    Donald Richardson
    Based on Chaucers The Knights Tale in Canterbury Tales, The Two Noble Kinsmen takes as a motif the rules of courtly love endorsed by both Arcite and Palamon who, unfortunately, are nearly indistinguishable. As Mowat and Werstine assert, So fraught are the human relations of the play that only the gods can eventually bring them to their resolution (xv). Credit William Shakespear...
