🤩 I have published an article (in Spanish) about how disciplinary identity can be a useful category to develop intersectional analysis within academia, especially in Latin America. It can be downloaded here:

I've just finished "all the light we cannot see". It follows two kids, german orphan, and a blind french girl, in parallel, while their lives get derrailed by the war. Somehow they manage to be true to themselves among the mayhem. Starts slow, but picks up speed. I loved It.

¿How did you liked it?

@morgan @bookstodon Yeah, right?

The fact that the main plot is decided a few chapters before the end was neat to me. As a reader I got surprised by the unfolding of circumstances.

@CMDoran @bookstodon Yes! It's so neat. Small chapters, and the stories are sequential; gives you some structure among the mayhem of war.

@DarkMatterZine @bookstodon Oh, that's interesting! I didn't catch the albino reference, but I have to agree with you in that one. But then, wouldn't you find Werner to also be a victim of Nazism? He was a kid doing a men's work. And he is being traumatized by their actions, don't you think?

(Btw, thanks for your openess)

Can anyone tell me why d’Aulnoy sorts after W and before Ø?

@faduda @SimonRoyHughes @bookstodon @indexodon seems likely

I completely judge a book by its cover.

It’s not fair to books that may not have that attractive of a cover, but it is what it is-most especially when it’s an author or title I am unfamiliar with. The book below is evidence of this. This cover completely grabbed ahold of my attention. Not only did I read the synopsis, but I also knew I wanted to paint the other half. This is an older picture, but I’ve finally started reading it. While the synopsis is not one I’d gravitate towards, I’m giving it a chance, & all b/c of the initial attraction to the cover. @bookstodon

@mlanger @diazona @DarkMatterZine @EpiphanicSynchronicity @likewise @bookstodon Then, why you worry about it being out in the wild? Most of these old media was not archived anywhere, and can only be preserved by piracy. Think on the lost software.

I didn't mean to put words into you. I understand your point. Sorry if I came out as "that guy". 🥹

I'm not arguing against copyright in entirely. I was thinking about this work in particular. Fair enough, you didn't agree for it to be free. But I ask you, should you?
