I was wrong. Remembering Babylon is a wonderful book. Malouf’s rich prose, which at times approaches... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~954637 Tue, 24 Oct 2000 23:08:03 GMT http://www.epinions.com/book-review-77B4-24031E07-39F63ED9-prod3?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/book-review-3374-15172F32-39F36322-prod5?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author maggieball - Back when I was an undergraduate, the first piece of advice I got was to get myself a copy of the Oxford English Dictionary. The OED, as it was affectionately known amongst English Lit students, was considered a de rigueur reference tool, even for... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~954845 Sun, 22 Oct 2000 19:05:22 GMT http://www.epinions.com/book-review-3374-15172F32-39F36322-prod5?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/kifm-review-6B28-ACC164F-39E28BA8-prod1?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author maggieball - Both my children started Rice Cereal as their first foods at around 5.5 months. Rice Cereal is cited as the perfect food to start infants on, due to the low incidence of rice allergies and the ease of digestion. Neither of my boys liked it very much,... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~882302 Tue, 10 Oct 2000 01:07:01 GMT http://www.epinions.com/kifm-review-6B28-ACC164F-39E28BA8-prod1?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/book-review-6FD9-DF50B13-39E12047-prod5?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author maggieball - Salmon Rushdie’s The Moor’s Last Sigh is a heady, sensual, wordy, moving, funny, wonderful book. It does for the English language what Joyce’s Ulysses did over a century ago, expanding our vocabulary and consequently our ability to perceive and describe... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~956188 Sun, 8 Oct 2000 22:42:20 GMT http://www.epinions.com/book-review-6FD9-DF50B13-39E12047-prod5?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/book-review-62B7-503F6C9-39D3BE66-prod1?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author maggieball - Alias Grace is a fiction, based on the true story of Grace Marks, who, in 1843 was tried for murdering her employer and his pregnant mistress.
