L. Mencken Eric Hoffer Elbert Hubbard ... Jeff Long A child who is protected from all controversial ideas is as vulnerable as a child who is protected from every germ. The infection, when it comes- and it will come- may overwhelm the system, be it the immune system or the belief system. Jane Smiley I loved the house the way you would any new house, because it is populated by your future, the family of children who will fill it with noise or chaos and satisfying busy pleasures. Jane Smiley In my experience, there is only one motivation, and that is desire. No reasons or principle contain it or stand against it. Jane Smiley My characters never die screaming in rage. They attempt to pull themselves back together and go on. And that's basically a conservative view of life. Jane Smiley Oh, that sound? I'm in the hot tub, reading a novel.

65. VDH's Private Papers :: Jane Smiley, Republican Party Recruiter So far my favorite fit was pitched by jane smiley on Slate. smiley is a middlebrow novelist adept at spinning tales that gratify all the received wisdom http://www.victorhanson.com/articles/thornton110904.html

author archives books calendar ... home November 9, 2004 Jane Smiley, Republican Party Recruiter Bruce Thornton Private Papers L osing often induces hysteria, particularly in those suffering from arrested development. So it's no surprise that in the aftermath of Kerry's defeat we're seeing a whole slew of tantrums being thrown by various liberal pundits. After all, much of modern liberalism, as Churchill suggested, is often the ideology of a narcissistic teen-aged sensibility that chafes at the limits reality places on the utopian idealism and inflated expectations typical of most left-leaning thought. So far my favorite fit was pitched by Jane Smiley on Slate . Smiley is a middle-brow novelist adept at spinning tales that gratify all the received wisdom and unexamined prejudices of the sort of people who think Maureen Dowd is an intellectual, Al Franken a comedian, Michael Moore a political satirist, and Hillary Clinton a statesman. The central myth of these folks can be boiled down to this: liberals are smart and conservatives are stupid. Liberals are cool rationalists whose beliefs are founded on logic and evidence; conservatives are in thrall to ancient superstition and irrational beliefs that compensate for various neuroses. Liberals respect the complexity of the world and so view it with sophisticated nuance; conservatives are simplistic and reductive, their absolutist beliefs charging through politics like a bull in a china shop. Liberals are high-minded, tolerant, sensitive to the plight of the poor and oppressed; conservatives are selfish, greedy, intolerant exploiters of the poor and oppressed. Liberals are idealists who want to create a better world of peace, justice, and equality; conservatives are grubby materialists who want to create profits. In short, the whole creed basically is a simple assertion that liberals are better than conservatives. In other words, it's snobbery.

University of Iowa News Release Feb. 7, 2006 Author Jane Smiley To Discuss Her Work At Iowa City, Chicago Events Pulitzer Prize-winning author Jane Smiley will share the secrets of her craft at two University of Iowa-sponsored, February events in Iowa City and Chicago. On Feb. 25, Smiley will appear as special guest on KSUI radio's "Know the Score Live!" with host Joan Kjaer. The program is from 2:45 to 5 p.m. at the Englert Theatre, 221 East Washington St., Iowa City. The event is free and open to the public. Smiley, a graduate of the Iowa Writers' Workshop, is the author of 12 best-selling novels, including the Pulitzer Prize-winning "A Thousand Acres." She will read from her latest novel, "Ten Days in the Hills" (to be released Feb. 13), which takes an insider's look at the sex, intrigue, and power games of Hollywood. Lan Samantha Chang, director of the Iowa Writers' Workshop in the UI College of Liberal Arts and Sciences, will introduce Smiley. Later in the program, Kjaer will talk with Smiley, as will Marvin Bell, UI emeritus faculty member and former Iowa poet laureate, and Jason England and Kecia Lynn, who are students from the Iowa Writers' Workshop. A question-and-answer session will conclude the program. The UI Lecture Committee will present Smiley with the Notable Iowan Award, which honors Iowans who have made important social, cultural, political or other achievements. These award winners speak as part of the Notable Iowan Lecture series, supported in part by the F. Wendell Miller Fund.

The following entry presents an overview of Smiley's career through 1999. For further information on her life and works, see CLC, Volumes 53 and 76. INTRODUCTION Smiley's fiction explores complex relationships among family members, friends, and lovers, while providing detailed character studies of her protagonists. Critics have commended Smiley's keen observations of daily routine and her use of sharp, revealing dialogue as effective tools that enable her to explicitly define her characters and their emotions. Her fiction also deals with larger, underlying themes such as loss and recovery. Biographical Information Smiley was born on September 26, 1949, in Los Angeles, California. She was raised by her mother, Frances, who was a journalist. Her parents divorced when she was one year old, after which she rarely saw her father, James, a soldier who suffered from mental illness after serving in World War II.

Add Review/Comment The Other Woman: Twenty-one Wives, Lovers, and Others Talk Openly About Sex, Deception, Love, and Betrayal From some of America’s top writers comes a groundbreaking, compulsively readable anthology about that most taboo of subjects—women who steal husbands and boyfriends from other women, and the consequences for those left behind. She’s been called the harpy, the Jezebel, the Lorelei, the bitch...and other choice names. In truth, she is someone’s daughter, mother, friend, confidante. She seduces husbands, breaks up marriages, and occasionally becomes a stepmother. Sometimes, she is even a victim. With 21 insightful essays (20 written specifically for this anthology) from a list of America’s most respected and award-winning female authors, this collection explores the highly personal, sometimes anguished, sometimes hilarious, but always compelling experiences of women on both sides of these highly charged and emotional situations.
