  • Anna Karenina Parts 6, 7, 8 by Leo Tolstoy - Book Summary, Analysis, Review

    Welcome to the CodeX Cantina where our mission is to get more people talking about books! Is there a more famous book out there? Maybe. This is a book you'll want to read before you die. Krypto and Una are finally diving into this mammoth and performing an in-depth discussion as they work through it. This will cover Anna Karenina Parts 6, 7, and 8! Leo Tolstoy may have been Russia's greatest writer, he may have been their greatest moralist. Any way you look at it, it's hard to compare the themes of love, public and private life, or adultery any closer than how Tolstoy does in this book. What does the ending mean? Is it a happy ending?

  • Twenty-Six and a Girl by Maxim Gorky - Short Story Summary, Analysis, Review

    Welcome to the CodeX Cantina where our mission is to get more people talking about books! Today we look at Russia's Maxim Gorky (Maksim Gorky) and "Twenty-Six and One" (Twenty-Six and a Girl) which was published in 1899. A great piece that shows the plight of the working life under the Russian Empire at the time. Possible influences and interpretations of religion in here as well. I hope you enjoy the piece! Our version was translated by Ivan Strannik.

  • Counterparts by James Joyce - Short Story Summary, Analysis, Review

    Welcome to the CodeX Cantina where our mission is to get more people talking about books! Today we talk about "Counterparts" by legendary James Joyce. While this one is not reviewed as frequently as other stories in the anthology, it's one that is very powerful to us. A great tale of abuse sprinkled with the usual Nationality and Religious overtones that Joyce always sneaks in there!
