When you send your friend a message through Somebody, it goes — not to your friend — but to the Somebody user nearest your friend.

Dogs Love Fire Hydrants: In one of the starring George and Junior as dog catchers, they dress as fire hydrants to attract a dog they've been trying to catch. They end up being chased by every dog in town. The first novel by the filmmaker and artist Miranda July is like one of those strange mythological creatures that are part one thing, part another — a griffin or a chimera, perhaps, or a sphinx. The novel starts off tentatively, veers into derivative and willfully sensational theater-of-the-absurd drama — part Pinter, part Genet — and then mutates, miraculously, into an immensely moving portrait of motherhood and what it means to take care of a child.

It is a novel about aging, about motherhood, about sex, about weird wounded women--yes--but it is really a novel about the desperate possibility in all of us to love and be loved. The First Bad Man is like no other novel you will read this year (or any other year).” Phillip, the board member, seems to be returning her affections, but really he is just warming her up to confess that he has fallen in love with an underaged girl but that he hasn’t yet consummated the relationship and he won’t -- unless Cheryl gives the okay. As he waits for her to decide if it’s okay, he sends her status updates on the sexual side of things: The girl has been rubbed through the jeans. She’s held his stiff member. That sort of thing.A personal development center providing free life skills courses in literacy, computing and math, alongside creative classes in art, woodwork and gardening Miranda July's first novel announces something new, not only in its invention, characterization, and pace, but emotional truth. With it, the esteemed artist and filmmaker joins the front rank of young American novelists—and then surpasses them.”

I don’t know—morning?” It was only February. By June Phillip and I might be a couple, we might come to Dr. Broyard’s together, hand in hand. Starred Review. This well-written, compelling novel will delight the open-minded reader looking for something new. It will satisfy July's fans and win her many more." - Library Journal First there was a description of her analyst who reminded me of the hilarious Dr Tuttle in Ottessa Moshfegh's My Year of Rest and Relaxation: Everything she said made perfect sense but only for a few seconds Eleven Heavy Things was installed at the Pacific Design Center in Los Angeles from July 23 to October 23, 2011.

Unfortunately the book wants you to root for its protagonist and this just isn't going to happen.I wanted more for Cheryl other than her life's plan being dictated by the poor choices of a psychotic houseguest (I never really got why the parents didn't just give Clee money to live on her own...I wanted to strangle Carl and Suzanne in every appearance...sic some of Marcellus Wallace's crew on Philip). Too bad July didn't. Want more for Cheryl, that is. Eleven Heavy Things was installed in the Center Lawn of Union Square Park in New York from May 29 to October 03, 2010.

It tells the story of Cheryl, who appears to be a 40 something, slightly lonely single woman who starts a masochistic relationship with the daughter of her employers. I say ‘appears to be’ because I am not sure what parts of the story are real and what parts are fantasy.

All the theories had merit but none that we felt totally convinced by. That Makes Me Feel Angry: Droopy used to say this, almost word for word.
