Nuclear Family

Jean Van Loon talks to Sharon Berg about her latest poetry collection. 1. You say in a CKCU radio broadcast on July 22, 2022, that the poem ‘Fallout’ is the pivot of the book ‘Nuclear Family’. There are actually three ‘Fallout’ poems in the book, each presenting details in a voice that seems too calm given the documented fallout from the H-bombs. In those fictionalized but biographical poems,…

#decemberwrapup! I had so much on my plate this month it felt like I never had time to read, but I sat myself down and MADE myself finish The Making of the Atomic Bomb because I was NOT carrying that into the new year. All of these books I really liked (even Making, which was interesting, just a lot of work.) . . #bookstack #booknerd #mythology #muslimanovel #zahiarahmani #wakesiren #ninamaclaughlin #thebirdking #gwillowwilson #themakingoftheatomicbomb #richardrhodes https://www.instagram.com/p/B60xtV4g55r/?igshid=1hjoezj3bvgrf

#octobertbr — Yes, maybe I am trying to make up for last month all at once, but also I am planning for Dewey’s Readathon, a @webebooknfb TBR challenge, and a The Master and Margarita read-along. Also, I am in physical therapy all this month, so maybe lots of reading time in waiting rooms? . . #batmanthechalice #chuckdixon #buffythevampireslayer #highschoolishell #jordiebellaire #themakingoftheatomicbomb #richardrhodes #neilgaiman #anansiboys #godswaspsandstranglers #mikeshanahan #freshwater #akwaekeemezi #iheardgodlaughing #hafiz #danielladinsky #princessbari #hwangsokyong #bytheriverpiedraisatdownandwept #paulocoelho #yourfavoritebandcannotsaveyou #scottomoore #muslimanovel #zahiarahmani #themasterandmargarita #mikhailbulgakov https://www.instagram.com/p/B3IM0beA2oD/?igshid=z3gfoagziao3

My second #scienceseptember read. I am only two chapters in and I am already deeply irritated that I didn’t read this book in college. His descriptions of Rutherford’s experiments (on the structure of atoms) are so good that I feel like I would have had a better handle on nuclear physics. . . #themakingoftheatomicbomb #richardrhodes #scienceclassics #sciencehistory #sciencegeek #sciencenerd https://www.instagram.com/p/B2O9Z_WAmE9/?igshid=1ilbjncfr8ksl

So @end.notes got me all excited about #scienceseptember, so of course I had to pull together a book stack of *some* of my unread science books. As usual, I don’t expect to read all of these next month — in fact they might not all even appear on my September TBR, but it was good to get them out and think about my priorities. I keep signing myself up for reading challenges that prioritize fiction reading, so I am excited for one that encourages me to dust off some of my science back list. . .

My ridiculous #septembertbr. As usual, I have no illusions that I will actually read all of these books, but I like starting from these curated piles. As you can see, there is some heavy #scienceseptember representation, as well as more poetry, my most recent Toni Morrison purchase, and the solarpunk anthology I planned to read on vacation but didn’t get to. All perched on my end-of-summer, needs-to-be-weeded flower box. . Now. Can I kick all the people out of my house and spend the rest of the day reading? Probably not. Sigh. . . #badfeminist #roxanegay #sula #tonimorrison #friedrichlorenz #themysteriousworldofrays #princessbari #hwangsokyong #freshwater #akwaekeemezi #maryoliver #dreamwork #louiseglück #firstborn #tsunamivsthefukushima50 #leeannroripaugh #proustandthesquid #maryannewolf #themakingoftheatomicbomb #richardrhodes #requiemrwanda #lauraapol #glassandgardens #sarenaulibarri https://www.instagram.com/p/B1605Ulgmdz/?igshid=1ie60mqmy4j6s

Listen. I had intentions. Intentions that my #decembertbr would be reasonable, and not ridiculous. I have parties to plan and family that will visit. Presents to make. Shopping to do. And then... I went to the library. . . #muslimanovel #zahiarahmani #wakesiren #ninamaclaughlin #greengirl #katezambreno #thetransspaceoctopuscongregation #bogitakács #achoiroflies #alexandrarowland #driveyourplowoverthebonesofthedead #olgatokarczuk #softscience #frannychoi #deadlyaim #sallymwalker #loveaftertheend #joshuawhitehead #themakingoftheatomicbomb #richardrhodes ##gamayuntales #tynaofthelake #alexanderutkin #thewaterspirit https://www.instagram.com/p/B5xywGRgJgg/?igshid=z4shilbodri8
