Books & Authors - January 2007

I read quite alot,mainly non-fiction but find it very difficult when asked to explain what the book was about.
I really do know and follow it clearly in most cases but get jumbled when explaining.

William Blake, Percy Bysshe Shelley, William Wordsworth, John Keats and Samuel Taylor Coleridge.

...if so, what would you say their role/task in society was?

I'm studying for an essay and would simply like some ideas, nothing long or detailed. Thank you!

Simply that. How do you do it? What spacing is needed? How should it be formatted?

My book is in first person and throughout the whole book she (the main character) will be emailing her best friend that she moved away from telling her best friend about all of her adventures.

To each his own! I think I'll stay with Keats. His "elfin grot" is the height of the depths. Dean, from his prose works, appears to be a master of meaninglessness. His "disco underground" may be the depths at its height. A story of OOOOOOOOO!

I've been looking over various answers to my book shop question and playing with different niche store ideas.

so Far

1. A western speciliast book shop with support from Romance: Calling it Guns and Roses.

2. a multi-cultural bookshop, all books in english but with an emphasis on translated and 2nd generation texts. maybve a small section for polish books.

3. Opening a Pirate/nautical shop near camden Lock. selling knotted rope and suck like as well as buccaneering work.

what niche do you like. I decided against afro-carabbean bookshop as there seems to be strong specialist stores already, coupled with my lack of product knowledge,

similarly I dont know much about gay bookstores but in researching them they seem to be dwindling as mainstream stores have larger specialist sections and more gay writers recieve mainstream acclaim.

trying to find a niche I find interesting and could make money. sadly comic books and sci-fi seem to have their market won.

I like books about the early 1900s in the cities. Anyone know of any books like that? Is that what the above book is like?

Yeah, you can say if the person's tall or short, fat or skinny, hair/eye color, all that junk pretty easily. But what if you want to tell people exactly what a person looks like? What do you do then? I'm becoming an author myself, and have a hard time describing my characters.

I found a statement that says "Fitzgerald has been referred to as a 20th-century John Keats." I was just wondering what you guys thought about this. I think they are both similar in the way of their imaginations and such but I don't know that much about Keats. What do you think of this comparison?
