The best review I can give is that knowing less will only lead to greater enjoyment. Part of me wants to write about some of the specifics as I’ve seen included in other reviews but if you see this before you’ve either read the book or another review of the book - do yourself a favour and go in blind. ![]() Time is shown as passing far too fast, or far too slow, or being stop/start, or feeling like the enemy and the friend - what is so fascinating about this book is that it simply makes you feel human. Tone, style and the focus of the narrative all change only held together by that inevitable power that connects us all: time.Īlthough each story jumps back and forward in time we end as we start with the same characters albeit with a life’s journey in front/behind them.

He was trying to make a point about the general public’s poor understanding of statistics, and it is quite likely that many people thought he was being quite serious and followed his advice until the New Year, when presumably a new quota would begin.Ī century later we are increasingly bombarded by statistics, probabilities and averages, and yet our understanding of these numbers is still weak. An elegant study of the way maths can provide solutions to everyday problems.Ĭharles Dickens once proclaimed that he was boycotting the train service for the rest of December “on the grounds that the average annual quota of railroad accidents in Britain had not been filled and therefore further disasters were obviously imminent”.ĭickens was not just literate but numerate as well, and he was well aware of the absurdity of his statement. ![]() Something accessible for people who know no maths and something fun for the math literate. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Though tight lacing was probably never so bizarre as cartoons of the day suggest, then as now there was much talk of fashion victims. To some they were no doubt oppressive, although conferring gentility to others, they rendered that matchless sense of being perfectly well dressed. In a handsomely illustrated history of the corset, Valerie Steele, the author of Fifty Years of Fashion (1997) and the editor of the journal Fashion Theory, demonstrates how various were the kinds of corsets, the ways they were worn, and the meanings they conveyed to their wearers. Since the Renaissance, when clothes were first cut and tailored rather than simply draped, aristocratic women-later those of all classes, and men too-improved the body underneath with corsets that affirmed the wearer’s respectability and sex appeal. ![]() Even in the queen’s last moments, uncorseted, her body assumed the posture that tightly laced stays had exacted throughout her life.

It is very obvious from the writings of Oscar Wilde that either he was interested in writing comic fictions or stories with the philosophy of love however, he was against romanticism as evident from this short story.
