The other thread features the cat and a snake, neither of which we want to take out eyes off for very long. Two seemingly unrelated stories, one featuring a talking cat, twine and twist through the first part of the novel, both stories engrossing: a woman describes the lead-up to her traditional marriage…the clothes, the gold, the mother-to-daughter secrets, the preparations. See how the arrows in that sentence seem to point in opposite directions? Therein lies the tension. This remarkable debut by the 27-year-old Statovci gives us that strangeness, familiarity, differentness, and similarity in a wild ride from Kosovo to Finland, from traditional society to an open society, from cultural acceptance to social ostracism. All that has changed now and I couldn't be happier. I was eager to hear it all, but such stories, if they existed, were rarely published in the U.S. Cold, white, communal, with few racial or religious tensions. ![]() They’d started out somewhere I’d never been, and they’d arrived somewhere they’d never imagined. Years ago I remember wishing I could experience a bit of what immigrants experience, or that some could communicate their experiences in ways I could understand. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() For instance, Joyce’s “Araby” is anthologized more often, but for my money “The Dead” is more iconic. (So for those of you heading to the comments to complain that these stories are “the usual suspects”-well, exactly.) An iconic short story may be frequently anthologized, which usually means frequently read in classrooms, something that can lead to cultural ubiquity-but interestingly, the correlation isn’t perfect. (Also NB that in this case we’re necessarily talking about the American cultural consciousness, weird and wiggly as it is.) When something is iconic, it is a highly recognizable cultural artifact that can be used as a shorthand-which often means it has been referenced in other forms of media. Well, who knows, but for our purposes, “iconic” means that the story has somehow wormed its way into the general cultural consciousness-a list of the best short stories in the English language would look quite different than the one below. But before we go any further, you may be asking: What does “iconic” mean in this context? Can a short story really be iconic in the way of a poem, or a painting, or Elvis? Last year, I put together this list of the most iconic poems in the English language it’s high time to do the same for short stories. ![]() ![]() ![]() Now you are confounding Antwerp with Amsterdam.

Besides adding to our knowledge of photography's crucial role in helping to authorise and implement some of the most controversial social policies of modem times, this book makes a major contribution to our understanding of the history of racism. ![]() The author argues for a strong connection between the racial-type photographs that eugenicists created and the photographic images produced by nineteenth-century anthropologists and prison authorities, and how the photographic works of contemporary liberal anthropologists played a significant role in the eugenics movement's downfall. ![]() ![]() Using a large body of racial-type images and a variety of historical and archival sources, and concentrating mainly on developments in Britain, the USA and Nazi Germany, this book explains how photography, as the most powerful visual medium of the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, was vital to the eugenics movement's success - not only did it allow eugenicists to identify the people with superior and inferior hereditary traits, but it helped publicise and lend scientific authority to eugenicists' racial theories. This book documents and critically analyses the photographs that helped to strengthen as well as bring down the eugenics movement. ![]() ![]() A heavy-set man, he shaves his head and wears a scraggly, gray beard.

The documentary was filmed shortly before the outbreak of the pandemic and could only be released in Norway and the US, but plans are now underway for a broader, international distribution. “It can be a bit difficult to remember the things you just want to forget… but now I live in a nice place,” he says in the film.
