Book Review of And The Band Played On
I certainly intend to one day.
The violins in Elie Wiesel's film were real too.

How to Dress Edwardian Style
Victorian ladies weren't at all fashionable without a 'wasp' waist. That's where the corset came from. They just got tighter and more torturous, as time went on.
Glad that you didn't live then?

The Importance of having a Book Review Policy
Great article, EM! I'd love to get ARC copies someday. :-) I agree it would be a good idea for us to do book reviews here on Wizzley :-) You and Jo Harrington today have certainly inspired me to start.

Book Review of And The Band Played On
Right, I think we should do more book reviews here on Wizzley :-). I enjoyed yours very much! That thing about workers being fired, getting an invoice for outstanding debt, and that girl fighting to get her money from the Fund -- amazing. And ...

Fibromyalgia and Suicide
Hello Ragtimelil! Yes, I know how frustrating it must be for your friend, having been very active all my life myself. My life changed 100 per cent. I did not choose this life I have now, it was chosen for me, and that what makes it so ...

Fibromyalgia and Suicide
Hello Katiem! Your description of your neighbor is typical for someone who suffers from this disease. They always put on a happy face outward, but during those times when you can't even do that, you disappear, hiding from the world. Of course, ...

Long Night of Museums | Museums (at) Night
I go to (art) museums relatively often, but never been during a Night of the Museums: those long lines put me off, and I also think people should visit museums all the time, not only during that night. BUT I agree the concerts should be great ...
