  4. Classical sounds, unusual spaces

    The players lift their bows with the customary this-is-the-end flourish, finishing a movement of a Shostakovich string quartet, and the audience claps. A few "Whoo!" yells escape from the back of the room. Some people whistle.

  7. Coming to terms with the reality of our city

    In Theodore Dreiser's "Sister Carrie," a prosperous Chicago businessman, George Hurstwood, takes up with the young, gorgeous Carrie Meeber, chucks family and home, and runs away with Carrie to Montreal. They find their way to New York, where their tales separate and their fortunes move in radically different directions. Carrie becomes a successful stage performer and social diva. George is reduced to driving a streetcar, and ultimately, alone in a flophouse, commits suicide.

  8. Let's review: Rachel Shteir and poor Chicago

    And they said the gentle art of literary criticism was dead, confined to irrelevance. Not this week, gentle reader. Not in Chicago. Not in the heat of L'affaire de Shteir. What book review in the history of Chicago literature — heck, what recent book review, period — has enjoyed the attention afforded to Rachel Shteir's review in the last Sunday's New York Times?

  9. Movie secrets are there, in the script!

    You know what "Star Wars" is about? I mean, <em>really</em> about? Vietnam. It's a critical allegory of the war: The Rebels are the scrappy Viet Cong, hastily assembled, devoted and relentless; the Empire is the American military, tripped up by an enemy using guerrilla tactics and inferior weaponry. Oh, there's more here, but...

  12. 'Ramblers': A tale of hoops and history

    It was a thrill for me whenever the Michael Lenehan byline appeared above a story &mdash; usually a very lengthy story &mdash; in The Atlantic from the early 1980s to early 1990s. Occasionally he would write for his home publication, the Chicago Reader, where he served as chief editorial executive, but those Atlantic pieces were special.
