  • Waxing Pathetic

    by Merry Clark
    Reviewers have called this work a humorous feminist memoir so I guess that’s what it is. But it’s really just the story of what it’s like to be a female in America and go through various pathetic phases of life. Yes so I guess that would be a humorous feminist memoir. Of course there is a section addressing politics and economics—not at all dry, but rather sort of like a hurricane of words describing the end of civilization as we knew it.

    The Creative Journey Across Spain. In a comic remake of Homer's Odyssey, the author’s three-hundred kilometre pilgrimage walk from Leon to Santiago de Compostela is packed with personal foibles, sharp observations and tales of his numerous journeys through France, Spain and Portugal.
