It lived in our heads for so many years and became a touchstone of sensuality when we arrived at CALVIN KLEIN. If one thing summed up CALVIN KLEIN for us visually, it was Mario Sorrenti’s OBSESSION campaign with Kate Moss. “I suppose you could say we were obsessed by OBSESSION. To mark its 25th anniversary, Klein’s current prodigious son, Raf Simons, has rehashed the original tale of love, memory and obsession for a whole new generation. This month, the two central (and celebrated) protagonists reprise their role from the 1993 cult classic, taking centre stage once more in Calvin Klein’s second coming of the fragrance, Obsessed. It was quintessential ‘90s minimalism pared-back, youthful, irreverent – with images of a topless and bare-bottomed young Moss catapulting not only the Calvin scent to fragrance folklore – but Moss herself. Baby Mossy, in all her sylphlike, doe-eyed, elfin glory, fronted the campaign near-naked (full, in one shot) – with only towel-dried tresses and a bare face. ![]() One of the most enduring images of the olfactory narrative is Kate Moss for Calvin Klein’s Obsession, lensed by her then-boyfriend, Mario Sorrenti. ![]() ![]() Surrounded by the flat reassurance of mirrors, she leads an unfulfilled life-until the night a strange man named Geraden comes crashing through one of her mirrors, on a quest to find a champion to save his kingdom of Mordant from a pervasive evil that threatens the land. The daughter of rich but neglectful parents, Terisa Morgan lives alone in a New York City apartment, a young woman who has grown to doubt her own existence. In The Mirror of Her Dreams, the astonishing first novel in the two-volume Mordant’s Need series, Donaldson shows us a world of wondrous beauty and seductive illusion, where mirrors hold the deadliest of magics and nothing is what it seems. Donaldson changed the face of fantasy fiction forever. ![]() With The Chronicles of Thomas Covenant, Stephen R. ![]() Crooked Kingdom by Leigh Bardugo6/28/2023 ![]() ![]() I kept correcting him while I was listening. I don't think Kevin gave a bad performance but he had almost all the pronunciations of the characters and the world incorrect which made his performance distracting. New to Crooked Kingdom.Kevin T Collins (Wylan) and Peter Ganim (Jan). Jay Snyder made me fall in love with Matthias or maybe with Jay himself -). Their last scenes at the end of the book were AMAZING and worth the whole listen! As for the men.returning narrators Fred Berman (Kaz), Brandon Rubin (Jesper), Jay Snyder (Matthias), Roger Clark (Pekka) gave very consistent performances to Six of Crows and matched the characters well. Elizabeth Evans (Nina) and Lauren Fortgang (Inej) were brilliant and well cast to the characters. Now for the narrators.anytime it gets past 2 narrators I find it distracting. Yeah it felt a bit gratuitous on Leigh's part but I enjoyed it anyway. Ok.one tiny spoiler which made me VERY HAPPY is Kaz and the crew get help from some very special characters of the Grisha trilogy. ![]() Don't want to provide any spoilers but the journey to the end is worth it. Not my favorite style of writing but Leigh pulls it off well in both books. ![]() As with Six of Crows the book continues with each character providing their POV. It is the ending of the duology which could have easily been a trilogy.my selfish want as I love the world Leigh has built. ![]() Leigh Bardugo does not disappoint in Crooked Kingdom the sequel to Six of Crows.

The book offers a comprehensive look at the factors that contribute to the test score gap and discusses options for substantially reducing it. Indeed, they think that closing the gap would do more to promote racial equality than any other strategy now under serious discussion. In their introduction to this book, Christopher Jencks and Meredith Phillips argue that eliminating the disparity would dramatically reduce economic and educational inequality between blacks and whites. The test score gap between blacks and whites-on vocabulary, reading, and math tests, as well as on tests that claim to measure scholastic aptitude and intelligence-is large enough to have far-reaching social and economic consequences.

To do it, the pair-already experts at crafting future dystopias as creators of HBO’s *Westworld-*worked with showrunner Scott Smith to reframe the story for the show and craft props and sets that nodded to both the future and the present. Not enough dystopia for you? The Peripheral also features behemoth sculptural air cleaners hovering over a staggeringly empty future version of London, just in case you weren’t freaked out enough already.Īs with all things Gibson, the vision in The Peripheral was meticulously crafted-a blessing for readers, but a challenge for executive producers Lisa Joy and Jonathan Nolan to translate to the screen. The series is rife with outlandish inventions, brutal fights, and faceless cyborgs, plus local no-goods, hints of romance, and even some good old-fashioned drone warfare. ![]() She’s been enlisted by her cyber GI brother to test some new mystery tech, and the pair quickly realize they’ve become embroiled in a thriller for the ages.
