Tuesday's Literary Briefing

Time To Get Free, People

Mind, body and spirit: One day in Berkeley Mario Savio tried to free them all. Revisit Savio’s reckless story of student revolt in The Nation. Martin Scorcese seeks out the lost mind in Shutter Island. But some audiences see only a shadow of what was once the filmmaker’s central power. Five women freed their bodies in The Naked Reading Forum, make the plunge and liberate your reading habits with them. Sexy readings are a springboard to further explore the body, specifically Gabriel Garcia Marquez’s in Memories of My Melancholy Whores, which gets its treatment from The Morning News’s satire. Finally, concluding our roundup of all things mind, body and spirit, we’re transcending space and visiting Guernica’s interview with Judith Butler. Yes, can you hear that? It’s your personal trinity saying it’s time to get free.  – Andrew Geer
