An exciting night of intrigue, murder & theft for Conan in a desert oasis town inhabited by cannibals & strange cults.

An opportunity for Howard to demonstrate some of his worst racism, with a seasoning of predatory sexism. Apologists say it's of its time: it's still 💩

My 4⭐ rating is based solely on the fantasy/adventure elements I read Howard for, & that while Conan is, famously, savage, he also isn't as thick as he's sometimes portrayed.

dabbe Wow! What a cover, too! 😱❣️😱 1w
Bookwomble @dabbe It's the 1935 magazine cover in which the story was originally published. The character shown is Zabibi, who is described as being mixed-race and brown skinned, but I guess an accurate depiction may not have sold as well to the target demographic (hence, also, White Jesus? 🤔). Anyway, that aside, the artwork for Weird Tales was frequently incredible. 1w
dabbe @Bookwomble Thanks for the info! The colors are so vivid and jarring at the same time, too! 🤩 1w

A collection of short stories. Each story centered around a character's passion - friendship, lust, a mother's love - and multiply the passion tenfold in the larger context. I was highly engaged and couldn't wait to start the next story. #FoodandLit #LitsyAtoZ@Texreader @Catsandbooks

A book of short stories set in Mumbai, India, where the city is as much a character in each tale as any human being. An homage of sorts to the “maximum city” that is filled with poverty, crime, loss, but most of all hope and community. Written in the Kannada language, English doesn‘t seem to do justice to all the stories, but a few stories such as Interval, Gateway, Water really stand out in this collection.

Just the most lovely little book. I forgot how delightful and comforting an Irish voice can be. A delightful romantic escape. So late one the Day just made Claire Keegan my newest favorite authors.
