The Chatter Box The Trespasser by Tanya French Reviewed by Bonnie Sue Pokorny Detectives Conroy and Moran are investi-gating the death of a woman. She was found dead on the corner of her fireplace. They have to investigate to determine if this was an accident or a murder. During the course of the investigation they learn that she was involved with a married man and also had a stalker. The mystery is interesting and you keep going back and forth on whether it was a murder or accident and if a murder, who committed the crime. Another layer to the story is that Conroy has difficulties with her fellow officers because she is a black woman. It is interesting that this takes place in Ireland where procedures are different.

My Grandmother Asked Me to tell You She’s Sorry by Frederik Backman Reviewed by Bonnie Sue Pokorny I recently review "A Man Called Ova" and it was so charming that I requested the other two books he had written. This is a story of a seven year old girl who was very close to her grandmother. Every night her grandmother would make up fairy tales and stories of different kingdom. When the grandmother died, Elsa had to deliver letters from her grandmother and learned her history. This is a fantasy story and quite creative.

Britt Marie was Here by Frederic Backman Reviewed by Bonnie Sue Pokorny Britt Marie was a character in "My Grand-mother asked me to tell you she's sorry" and this is her story after she left her cheating husband. She drove away and was seeking employment. She got a temporary position for three weeks in a community center in a dying town. She meets a lot of odd charac-ters and soon becomes the soccer coach. This is a very sweet and humorous story.

March/April 2017

The Blood Flag by Steve Martini Reviewed by Bonnie Sue Pokorny The Blood Flag was a symbol used by Hitler. It had the blood of a fellow soldier and was shown at every rally he held. Now, three American veterans have been killed in the quest for this flag. It is up to Paul Madri-ani to prove that the daughter of one of the veterans did not kill her father. This story involves the CIA, FBI, Israeli Intelligence and is quite exciting.

As Close to us as Breathing by Elizabeth Poliner Reviewed by Bonnie Sue Pokorny The book starts in 1948. Grown daughters go the their family’s summer home. They arrive with their husbands, and children and they plan to stay for the summer as they do every year. This is the three women's story as well as the cousins narrated by a 12 year old girl. The family is Jewish and they are in a Jewish conclave. In this area there are al-so Irish and Italian families, but there is not much interaction. During this summer, Davy a seven year old dies. Everyone in the family feels that his accident was their fault. The story continues to recent times and is very interesting.

Curious Minds by Janet Evanovich and Phoef Sutton Reviewed by Bonnie Sue Pokorny This is a first in a new series involv-ing Emerson Knight and Riley Moon. Knight is immensely rich and Moon is his finan-cial lawyer. Emerson wants to physically see his gold and thus the adventure begins. It is witty and a lot of fun.

Black Widow by Daniel Silva Reviewed by Bonnie Sue Pokorny Another book on the Israeli spy Gabriel Al-lon. A doctor infiltrates ISIS to discover a plan to attack the USA. They already have done damage in France and Belgium and now are targeting Great Britain and USA. This will keep you very involved in the book and it is interesting to see how all the different countries react to the terrorists threats and attacks.

An Officer and A Spy by Robert Harris Reviewed by Alice Morley I want to recommend An Officer And A Spy by Robert Harris. This book holds your inter-est from beginning to end. It makes history exciting. It is about a Jewish officer, Alfred Dreyer, convicted of treason in 1895 in Paris and sentenced to Devil's Island. George Pic-quart, head of the counterspy agency, be-lieves Dreyfus is guilty. However, he stum-bles across some very dis-turbing information and Dreyfus may be wrongly convicted. You will not be able to stop reading till the very end.

A Gentleman in Moscow by Amor Towles Reviewed by Kathy Cohen

When an author has written a book as entertaining as “Rules of Civili-ty” it is with a certain trepidation that you pick up his second book; hoping it will be as good as the first. Amor Towles, made his money as an investment banker for twenty years, then picked up his pen to make use of the MA in English he received many years ago at Stanford Uni-versity. Fortunately, Towles is not a “one book wonder’ and has again created memorable characters against the backdrop of a particular place and time.

The gentleman in question, Count Alexander Rostov, returned to help his grandmother flee to Paris in 1917 during the Russian revolution, re-

mained behind, ensconced in his favorite Moscow hotel, the Hotel Metropol. In 1922 he is tried by the new regime, but spared the firing squad or exile to Siberia. Instead he is sen-tenced to life imprisonment under house arrest in the hotel and summarily moved from his luxurious suite to a room in the attic. Count Rostov spends the next 32 years at the hotel, Zelig –like, he is there at all the important moments of 20th century Russia, despite never setting foot outside the door. Without for a moment losing his charm, wit and courtesy the Count remains true to himself while creating an environment around him which enables him to enjoy his food, wine and books almost as before. The author manages, almost imperceptibly, to transform the Count into a working man as he evolves into part of the hotel staff. Towles stays close to historical fact and even has lengthy footnotes to support the accuracy of certain events. Russian literature is discussed and quoted from liberally throughout the book, lending an aura of authenticity to the charac-ters. The plot, with its twists and turns, ends with a surprise. I enjoyed every minute of this book and was sorry to have it end. Now I’m looking forward to his next.

Commonwealth by Ann Patchett Reviewed by Kathy Cohen

In sparkling prose and animated descriptions, Ann Patchett brings to life the world of 1960’s suburban America, replete with housewives in frilly aprons whose kingdoms are circum-scribed by the four walls of their modern, fully-equipped, kitchens. When Bert Cousins crashes a christening party with a bottle of gin in his hand he sets in mo-tion a series of events which lead to the dissolution of two marriages and turns the lives of six children upside down. It is through the children, whose lives as stepbrothers and stepsisters is depicted over the course of five decades, that we see the impact of the divorces. Their re-lationships, developed over summers where they all spend time together on either of the coasts; California and Virginia. We see how each child develops and grows into an adult, some of them successfully and others never recovering from their parents’ divorce. One of the sisters starts an affair with an older man who is a renowned American author, shares the story of her life with him, and he promptly finds himself inspired to write a book telling the story of her family. Her family’s reaction to finding themselves characters in a best-seller is varied and fascinating. Ann Patchett, author of popular novels such as “The Patron Saint of Liars” and “Bel Canto”, has done it again; coming up with a group of characters who come to life, and a plot that keeps you eager to find out what comes next.

Belgravia by Julian Fellows Reviewed by Bonnie Sue Pokorny If you are a lover of Downton Abbey, you will love this book. Julian Fellows is the author of Downton Abbey. This story starts at the Battle of Waterloo and ends twenty five years later. A young aristocrat is killed at the Battle of Waterloo. A young girl is left behind pregnant. The pregnancy is kept secret and the child is put up for adoption. The young orphan reappears decades later, unaware of his heritage and the battle now ensues between the two sets of grand parents. It will keep you on your toes through out the book., Enjoy!

The Pope’s Daughter by Dario Fo Reviewed by Marion Mango

In this fascinating novel of Renaissance Italy, we learn of the scurrilous scandals, infamous in-trigues, and downright dirty deeds perpetrated by one of history’s most reviled families --- the Borgias---whose origins were in Spain, not Italy, as is the popular belief. Lucretia Borgia—the mere mention of whose name casts a dark shadow and causes shivers to run up and down one’s spine even in modern times—is the life upon whom this story is based. With a pen not dipped in invective, the author casts a new light upon his much-maligned subject about whom his knowledge is more than profound. Her brother Cesare, en-deavors to marry her off at age 11 to a man as corrupt and disingenuous as himself. Being the clever creature that she is, Lucretia manages to thwart his evil intentions, not only in that ar-ea, but in others as well. We gain intimate insights into the Machiavellian machinations of the city-states of the era and ruling families of the day. Many names with which we might be fa-miliar, including several prelates of the Church help bring the story to life for the modern-day reader. Mr. Fo is a Nobel Laureate in literature as well as a playwright, actor, director and political ac-tivist. The book is profusely illustrated, including more than a few of his works. Enjoy this incredible journey. Ciao, cari , amici !

Harriet Tubman by Judith Bentley Reviewed by Marion Mango

As you will discover in this fascinating, thought-provoking biography, Harriet Tubman is as woman for the ages; a woman who, though gone from our midst since 1913, is still capable of monumental achievement. For on April 20, 2016, the U. S. Treasury Department announced that Miss Tubman would replace Andrew Jackson on the twenty dollar bill, thus becoming on-ly the second woman to receive such an honor in over a century, the first being Martha Wash-ington on the one-dollar silver certificate in the late 1800’s. (Women who have appeared on U.S. coinage include: Helen Keller on the quarter, Susan B. Anthony and Sacagawea, both on the dollar piece.) Born into slavery on a Maryland plantation around 1820, she honorably bore on her forehead a deep scar received while saving the life of a runaway slave. Known fondly as “Moses” to the over 300 slaves she led to freedom on the Underground Railroad, she was also a nurse and spy for the Union forces during the Civil War. In dire need of funds, having taken care of her parents, a number of relatives, plus a disabled husband, she wrote her autobiography in the 1860’s. The selfless Miss Tubman used the mon-ies obtained from this effort to establish a home for aged and indigent former slaves. Sadly, upon her demise, the establishment was disbanded due to lack of funding. Among her friends were Susan B. Anthony (Harriet being active in the suffrage movement), Booker T. Washington---author of “Up From Slavery’ and a prominent educator, Frederick Douglass—a renowned orator and activist in the movement to educate African-Americans who , praising “Moses” in a speech, hailed her heroic efforts which largely went unsung until after the Civil War. In researching this book, the author, who is also a teacher, travelled to the abolitionist’s home in Buckland, Maryland. She met with Harriet’s descendants both there and in Pennsylvania. Said Harriet: “On my underground railroad, I never ran a train off the track and never lost a passenger.” May these simple words inspire us to be the chief engineer on our personal track to triumph! PS: Award-winning actress Viola Davis is slated to star on HBO in an adaptation of Miss Tub-man’s amazing story.

I Was Told There’d be Cake by Sloane Crosley Reviewed by Marion Mango

Stop drooling ---this is not a cookbook or a bake book (hmm, was there ever such a term? Well, there is now!). What it is is a delightful , bright, charming, funny, Dorothy Parkeresque take on the world around her told in a series of essays about what it’s like to be young, in and out of love, frustrated-with a touch of ennui-nowadays. There is a delightful piece on Sloane’s first name- how she got it (you won’t believe!), its spelling and mysterious mistakes in pronunciation (some thought it was Sybil, Cybele and Si-obhan) and how she coped and still does with such atrocities. “The height of luxury” and “The Beauty of Strangers” are also worthy of your perusal and bound to produce more than a few chuckles. “The Ursula Cookie” recounts the time she baked a Frisbee-sized cookie resembling her beastly boss’s face and then gifted the goodie to that self-same snob. (Oops! I did say this was not a bake book, right?) Shades of “The Devil Wears Pra-da”! The other components of this collection will leave you wanting more, in which case I highly recommend this former book publicist turned writer’s subsequent volume “How Did You Get This Number?” Her first novel “The Clasp” was published in 2015. Between The World and Me by Ta-Nehisie Coates Reviewed by Marion Mango In this rivetingly -rendered, profound, mesmerizing memoir, Mr. Coates relates to his adoles-cent son – in the form of a letter-what it was like growing up in the slums of Baltimore, rising above these humble beginnings, while not losing sight of who he is-an African-American male for whom will always be turbulent. Delving into the controversial issues of race relations and social injustice, he endeavors to come to terms with these realities. HIs intellectual awakening at Howard University – his “port in the American storm”-was a godsend. It not only afforded him an educational opportunity, but also enhanced his natural literary talents. Mr. Coates is a national correspondent for The Atlantic and author of “The Beautiful Struggle”, a memoir. He has received the National Magazine award, the Hillman Prize, and the George Polk Award. In 2015 he was the recipient of the National Book Award for this volume. Won’t you open your hearts and minds to this revelatory read.

Love and Friendship starring Kate Beckinsale and Chloe Sevigny Movie Review by Marion Mango 1HR, 33 mins / PG/2016/Comedy of Manners Attention: Jane Austen aficionadas! Here for the very first time is a film adaptation of her posthumously – published novella, “Lady Susan” in which a British actress, Kate Beckinsale, ably portrays the title character, a charmingly manipulative widow. Determined is she to re-verse her dire circumstances---even at the expense of social conventions---for she and her daughter must marry well. What ensues is a wickedly witty journey through a series of relationships populated mostly by dullards and drips, with Lady Susan rising above societal limitations to achieve her goal. This romantic roundelay is given a deliciously modern touch by director, Whit Stillman and is over all too soon. Enjoy! This DVD is available from Queens Library.

The Black Rose starring Tyrone Power, Orson Welles and Jack Hawkins Movie Review by Marion Mango 2 HRS/NR/1950/Adventure Sharpen your swords, iron your veils and take belly dancing .This beautifully filmed adventure stars that gorgeous movie icon, Tyrone Power, in a breathtaking tale. Set in England and far-off Cathay (China) two hundred years after the Norman conquest, it tells the tale of Oxford scholar Walter of Guernie, the unacknowledged scion of a wealthy Saxon lord whose deter-mination to seek his fortune carries him to the far-flung reaches of the then-known world. Aided by his faithful companion and super-skilled bowman (Jack Hawkins), he joins a caravan and encounters the Ghenghis Khan-like warlord Bayan of the Hundred Eyes (Orson Welles), who is only too happy to use their skills in the fulfillment of his goal to conquer Cathay. What follows is laced with action, intrigue, stolen hidden jewels and a beautiful, mysterious girl. (Did I mention Tyrone Power is gorgeous?) Enjoy this adventure. This DVD is available from Queens Library.

Beacon By Marion Mango Applaud the talents of others; Learn simple joy--- It is a basic, yet beauteous gift; Delight in your family and friends; Find contentment in unsung labors. Remember that riches come from within--- do not amass too much wealth, for it is in a rich, inner life--- an unadorned existence--- that the soul grows through sacrifice and love for others. Be as a beacon--- and through you others will learn the precious art of loving and giving.

Cashmere By Marion Mango It takes more than mere cash to buy cashmere; what I mean is poverty should definitely not be a fear; should that happen, don't let it get your goat... for that goat may one day be your coat!

Solemn By Marion Mango Solitary are my footprints upon the sand. I turn to the sea where the sapphire - coral rays of the setting sun tell me another day has gone--- another day, yet it seems like a millennium without you.

Mail-A-Book (to the tune of "Thank Heaven for Little Girls") By Marion Mango Thank Heaven for Mail-A-Book, it helps keep me from feeling like a SCHNOOK! Thank Heaven for Mail-A-Book, the DVD's so at movies I can look. They all help keep my brain working (although at times I feel senility is lurking!) Thank Heaven for Mail-A-Book, all you folks at Queens Village and also on the line--- Thanks to you my brain is just fine.

Sonnets from the Portuguese, XIII by Elizabeth Barrett Browning And wilt thou have me fashion into speech The love I bear thee, finding words enough, And hold the torch out, while the winds are rough, Between our faces, to cast light upon each? I drop it at thy feet. I cannot teach My hand to hold my spirit so far off From myself.. me.. that I should bring thee proof, In words of love hid in me... out of reach. Nay, let the silence of my womanhood Commend my woman-love to thy belief, Seeing that I stand unwon (however wooed) And rend the garment of my life in brief

She Walks In Beauty by George Gordon, Lord Byron She walks in beauty, like the night Of cloudless climes and starry skies; And all that's best of dark and bright Meet in her aspect and her eyes: Thus mellow'd to that tender light Which heaven to gaudy day denies. One shade the more, one ray the less, Had half impair'd the nameless grace Which waves in every raven tress, Or softly lightens o'er her face; Where thoughts serenely sweet express How pure, how dear their dwelling-place. And on that cheek, and o'er that brow, So soft, so calm, yet eloquent, The smiles that win, the tints that glow, But tell of days in goodness spent, A mind at peace with all below,

Love's Philosophy by Percy Bysshe Shelley The fountains mingle with the river, And the rivers with the ocean; The winds of heaven mix forever, With a sweet emotion; Nothing in the world is single; All things by a law divine In one another's being mingle;-- Why not I with thine? See the mountains kiss high heaven, And the waves clasp one another; No sister flower would be forgiven, If it disdain'd its brother; And the sunlight clasps the earth, And the moonbeams kiss the sea;-- What are all these kissings worth, If thou kiss not me?

My Love Is Like to Ice by Edmund Spenser My love is like to ice, and I to fire: How come it then that this her cold is so great Is not dissolved through my so hot desire, But harder grows the more I her entreat? Or how comes it that my exceeding heat Is not allayed by her heart-frozen cold, But that I burn much more in boiling sweat, And feel my flames augmented manifold? What more miraculous thing may be told, That fire, which is congealed with senseless cold, Should kindle fire by wonderful device? Such is the power of love in gentle mind, That it can alter all the course of kind.
