![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() This series is as misbegotten as the characters are, and as the facts are, and as the mind is. Nothing is taken for granted because nothing is guaranteed. There are surprises, good and bad ones, and there are deaths and reencounters. There are secondary characters I love but without them stealing the show. But there is also snark and spice and all the fun, which made me laugh at the most unexpected moments. There is pain and suffering, there is madness and danger, and all of that pass on me.

Benavente’s earliest works quickly established his reputation for witty dialogue and satire that set him apart from many of his Spanish contemporaries. Though Benavente traveled extensively throughout Europe, his plays were often centered in Madrid and dealt mainly with varying portrayals of Madrid society. Jacinto Benavente, Spanish dramatist and Nobel laureate, was born on August 12, 1866, in Madrid. ![]() ![]() ![]() So, I tried to imagine what happened next: how that might have shaped their religion and politics. For example, we have a few mentions of the Prophet Suleiman punishing djinn but not much beyond that. ![]() It became a game with history and folklore providing the rules: I had to abide by what existed, but could imagine beyond that. the world that became The City of Brass–one I imagined djinn might have created by combining their nature and the influences of the particular human societies they lived amongst. The press release describes the story as "an imaginative alchemy of The Golem and the Jinni, The Grace of Kings, and Uprooted, in which the future of a magical Middle Eastern kingdom rests in the hands of a clever and defiant young con artist with miraculous healing gifts."

When last we saw The Flight Attendant's Cassie Bowden ( Kaley Cuoco), an alcoholic flight attendant with a penchant for making terrible decisions, she had just survived a truly hellish (for her) and delightful (for us) time trying to clear her name after waking up in a hotel bed in Bangkok next to the bloodied body of Alex ( Michiel Huisman), a hot passenger with whom she had a one-night stand. ![]() Kaley Cuoco, The Flight Attendant Jennifer Rose Clasen/HBO Max ![]() ![]() I may be biased on this front, but Céline is arguably the finest Western novelist of the past hundred years. I still remember how my junior year Early American Lit professor reacted when I told her I was reading Rigadoon: “Wasn’t Céline a Nazi?” Ask an English professor about Céline and half of them will have no idea who you’re talking about, and the other half will react like you just snapped off a Hitler salute. ![]() Case in point: the 20th century’s most reviled and imitated novelist, Louis-Ferdinand Céline.
