Messud exceeds expectations with 'Emperor's Children'
By Laura Romain | October 24, 2006Claire Messud's new book "The Emperor's Children" could very well be subtitled "Great Expectations."

First, there is Marina Thwaite, a radiant, violet-eyed socialite, and the daughter of legendary activist and liberal journalist Murray Thwaite.

By Laura Romain | February 6, 2006Nostalgic contrasts between a poetic, damsel-in-distress-riddled past and our own cold, technology-driven world have (rightfully) become cliche, but if your only knowledge of the Middle Ages stems from "Monty Python and the Holy Grail," take note: this week, troubadours grace the provenance of BlitzMail and Keystone. A poetry reading promises to set the scene.
