Aristophanes' the Birds | Aristophanes

pick

As translator Aaron Poochigian summarizes in the intro, " Considering life in Athens litigious & stressful, two Athenians, Peisthetaerus & Euelpides, head into the wilderness to find Tereus the Hoopoe, leader of the birds, & to make their home there." Peisthetaerus & Euelpides convince Tereus & the other birds to build Cloudcuckooland, a grand border city between humans & the Gods to regain their mythical majesty. A zany comedy w/ some ?

vivastory interesting commentary underneath. 1w

vivastory Translation I read is in this vol.

Aristophanes: Four Plays: Clouds, Birds, Lysistrata, Women of the Assembly

batsy Aristophanes is so over the top! And it intrigues me to think about the audiences he was writing for, who obviously were into this kind of absurdist. 1w

batsy *absurdism 1w

vivastory @batsy I completely agree. It makes me wonder about lost plays that could have anticipated Beckett & Ionesco. 1w

Patricia Wants to Cuddle | Dr Samantha Leigh Allen

so-so

This book quickly changed from being a fun story about a reality TV to a complete horror story!! Yikes. Not sure what to think.

Oscar Wilde: 'The Importance of Being Earnest' | Oscar Wilde

pick

Oscar Wilde is one of the greatest wits of all time. I was reading this play, laughing the entire time, and scheming lessons/activities I could do with future classes. This is an absolute riot from start to finish.

Yes Please | Amy Poehler

pick

This is a re-read for me. I read it for the first time a few years ago and thought it was funny and heartfelt. It has funny stories of Amy's upbringing and career as well as heartfelt but still amusing life advice.

The Way of the Househusband | Kousuke Oono

so-so

This is a book of short slice-of-life stories and I was hoping for a little more depth. Cute, but not enough to make me continue reading the series.

I know this is LITsy not VOTEsy…but I deleted the rest of my social media for the month, so I‘m sharing this here. 😅

Proud of myself for waking up super early to vote in our local election this morning! ✌🏻

monalyisha @MatchlessMarie That‘s great! Before we moved, we voted at the Botanical Garden & it was *delightful.* Now, it‘s just at a standard Middle School. 2w
