Brian McGreevyBrian McGreevy grew up near Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, and received his MFA from the Michener Center for Writers at the University of Texas. McGreevy went on to partner with former Michener classmate Philipp Meyer to turn Meyer’s Pulitzer short-listed novel The Son into a series for AMC. Frustrated with the film industry and sensing the migration of audiences to streaming services, McGreevy sold his forthcoming manuscript to Netflix in 2011, which was adapted into an original series of the same name that ran for three seasons. Now a screenwriter who has had two screenplays featured on the best of the year Black List, he is working on an adaptation of Dracula for Leonardo DiCaprio’s production company. While revising Hemlock Grove McGreevy worked as a screenwriter-for-hire within the studio system, in which period only one project he worked on went into production, with no actual words he contributed surviving. His primary thesis went on to become the novel Hemlock Grove (FSG, 2012), while his secondary thesis appeared on the Hollywood Black List of best not-yet-produced screenplays in 2007. Brian McGreevy was raised in a two-minister home deep in the Pennsylvania Rust Belt where he dropped out of high school in the ninth grade over “creative differences.” Eventually he found his way to Austin, Texas where he was a James Michener Fellow in fiction and screenwriting at the University of Texas. Happy Hour is a novel about getting by and looking great in a system that wants you to do neither. Through it all, Isa’s bold, beguiling voice captures the precise thrill of cultivating a life of glamour and intrigue as she juggles paying her dues with skipping out on the bill. Resources run ever tighter and the strain tests their friendship as they try to convert their social capital into something more lasting than precarious gigs as au pairs, nightclub hostesses, paid audience members, and aspiring foot fetish models. I wish someone would say to me, 'I will never look up or down at you. Deciding how much I deserve is another matter. By night, they weave from Brooklyn to the Upper East Side to the Hamptons among a rotating cast of celebrities, artists, Internet entrepreneurs, stuffy intellectuals, and bad-mannered grifters. Marlowe Granados, Happy Hour 4 likes Like I am slowly learning to never accept less than I deserve. By day, the girls sell clothes in a market stall, pinching pennies for their Bed-Stuy sublet and bodega lunches. In her diary, Isa describes a sweltering summer in the glittering city. They have little money, but that’s hardly going to stop them from having a good time. She arrives in New York City for a summer of adventure with her best friend, one newly blond Gala Novak. Isa Epley is all of twenty-one years old, and already wise enough to understand that the purpose of life is the pursuit of pleasure. Refreshing and wry in equal measure, Happy Hour is an intoxicatingnovel of youth well spent. With the verve and bite of Ottessa Moshfegh and the barbed charm of Nancy Mitford, Marlowe Granados’s stunning début brilliantly captures a summer of striving in New York City Ewing aptly has Hulk call back to Planet Hulk in an invigorating and somehow empowering moment in the issue. This volume forces Hulk/Bruce to come to grips with allies, prepare a first and mighty strike, and show the world he is the hero they want. What better villain to put in front of him then Minotaur, a variable allusion to the charging bull statue outside of Wall Street. He’s going to strike out at those who are destroying our Earth for capitalist gain. The opening issue in this collection establishes the fact that Bruce is very angry and more dangerous than ever. Bruce Banner and the Hulk are now working together to stamp out the greatest threat to humanity there is: corporations. Al Ewing and Joe Bennett have taken the character further than I ever expected and that’s more apparent than ever in the sixth volume, collecting issues #26-30. The series is not only reinventing Bruce Banner and the Hulk, but making them relevant on a cultural level. Immortal Hulk is starting to stand alongside classics like Dark Night Returns, Daredevil: Born Again, and maybe even the Dark Phoenix Saga. In the chapters of "Trip to Chile, 1540-1541" and "Santiago of the New Extremadura, 1541-1543" she talks about the hard conquest of Chile, the life with Pedro of Valdivia and how the two founded the capital of the country together. Also, she begins her relationship with Pedro de Valdivia, who develops an obsession to conquer Chile, promoted by what was told to him by the old Diego of Almagro. In "America, 1537-1540", she relates to us her life in The Cuzco, the decadence of the Incan empire under Francisco Pizarro and the political problems that they faced. In the first chapter, "Europe, 1500-1537", she describes her life in Plasencia, Spain, mainly her married life and affair with Juan of Málaga, in addition to her hard trip to America, motivated not only to find her husband, but also to find freedom. This historical novel is about the main facts of the life of Inés (an important figure in Chile), written in older Ines' first-person voice, with its intended audience to be Ines' adoptive daughter, Isabel. She narrates about her relationship with Pedro de Valdivia and the obstacles they had to overcome to conquer Chile and found the City of Santiago. The novel consists of an elderly Inés Suárez writing a memoir of her own life. Inés of My Soul ( Spanish: Inés del alma mía, 2006) is a historical novel by the Chilean author, Isabel Allende. |
