Christopher Caldwell-Kelly on X
An American Negro in Glasgow. Octavia E. Butler Scholar. Clarion West Alum. Talented Ruin. He/him or they/them. Ignyte awards nominee.
The Jungle
Upton SinclairChristopher Caldwell-Kelly@ParSpec But you can't teach 12 year olds to close read Upton Sinclair's The Jungle, for example, without leading them to question other assumptions. And I found the Jungle sort of harmful! Only Black kid in the class, and it's pretty racist.

The Great Gatsby
F. Scott FitzgeraldChristopher Caldwell-Kelly@vrovoom I'm 85% sure she was named after Zelda Fitzgerald, which suggests that if the Great Gatsby hadn't kept F. Scott Fitzgerald relevant long after his heyday, she might have been after Anita Loos or Clare Luce Booth

Coldheart Canyon
Clive BarkerChristopher Caldwell-Kelly@FiveFiveFiver It reminded me of the Clive Barker novel Coldheart Canyon, where depraved Hollywood weirdos built a Hieronymous Bosch-esque room covered in demon-infested tiles.

Superfudge
Judy BlumeChristopher Caldwell-Kelly@benjanun_s I have no idea why any non-American adult would read Judy Blume, and that includes her weird, smutty adult novels. Superfudge and Are You There God, It's Me, Margaret were old-fashioned when I was of the age to read them, and I'm old.

Three
Stephen Michael KingChristopher Caldwell-KellyI just saw a thread with "name a book that you don't hear people talk about often," and it starts with a Stephen King novel that was adapted into a TV series that ran three seasons, and continues with a Michael Crichton book that was made into a reasonably successful film.
