Kate’s 2¢: “Deep: freediving, renegade science, and what the ocean tells us about ourselves” by James Nestor

“Deep: freediving, renegade science, and what the ocean tells us about ourselves” by James Nestor

Kate’s 2¢: There is a plethora of in-depth biographies of authors and reviews of their books, that state the title, author, published date, and genre; as well as,     describing what the book is about, setting, and character(s), so, Kate’s 2¢ merely shares my thoughts about what I read.  I’m just saying…

   This was one of the stories the NLS included on a cartridge with six other books on it, so I read this story. My initial thought was that this dude was fairly shallow, kind of trying to be like “The Paper Tiger”, where he wants to do something so he can write about it.

   Nestor’s purpose for experiencing deep diving is more than a guy trying to prove he’s a macho man. While he graphically describes what happens to those who don’t spend years training to do competitive deep-diving, which  can be tragic, his point is that deep-diving is more about the total emersion of reconnecting with our actual origins that began in the deep trenches where the steam vents arise from the ocean floor.

   I enjoyed his various adventures with the scientists in submersibles and swimming with the animals in the waters of the world, as he trained to become his own personal submersible.

Nestor was born in Tustin, California, a suburb in Orange County. He described his upbringing as “ lower-upper-middle class. ” Nestor was the youngest of two siblings.

A few take-aways:

— This writing course is about creativity, but, it is also about technicalities.  I don’t over-look grammatical and spelling errors.

— I, alone, was subjected to the demoralizing request to have my briefs reviewed.

— I felt ambivalent about being praised for tasks everyone else took for granted.

— I took satisfaction in proving blindness was surmountable.

— Charity comes with self-improvement advice.

— If a lawyer doesn’t check his spelling, he won’t check his facts either.

— The andante was pretty and touched the heart. The tragedy was grim and gouged the soul.

— I can’t isolate when my sight went from some to none.

— a medical condition called retinitis pigmentosa gradually causes me to go blind

— I felt marginalized in a world where a picture speaks a thousand words

— I’d heard about goosing, but, didn’t know anything more about it that high school pranks, causing merriment among the gooser and distress in the goosee.

— Blindness doesn’t preclude parenthood.

— We’re all shaped by our closest relationships.

— Independence is never pure.

— What distinguishes disability is that it can prevent doing an activity on one’s own what others take for granted.

   I enjoyed listening to this NLS recorded book. I experienced many of the issues the author mentioned in his narrative and can appreciate how the computer has greatly enhanced what blind people can now do on their own.

   The prologue confused me, until I finished the story and went back to listen to it. I realized that the prologue seemed to be a foreshadowing of the author’s narrative.

   John Lescault did a good job of reading this story. Thank you.

From the web:

I wondered if Spratt is blind:  To accuse a work or its author of cultural appropriation can be to censor a possibly sincere attempt to celebrate fellow human beings. The same can apply to claims of disability appropriation. In my view, the focus should be on countering it, not

“Truth in advertising:,  “Talk to me a novel”, “Love poems: for married people” by John Kenney

   I received “Love poems: (for married people)”  by John Kenney automatically from the NLS, so, I read it. I suspect you’d call the hard copy a slim volume of poems for married people. Although these days, one need not be married to appreciate the humor in the poems. The problem is that humor is such a personal, subjective thing.

   One man’s humor may be another man’s sick joke. Some of these poems I found more snarky than funny; however, I was happy to know he made up the ones that seem to directly refer to his wife.

   I down-loaded “Truth in advertising”. It  seemed a bit too long for whatever it was trying to do in the beginning; but, Ray Hagen did a great job of narrating the novel. Once Finbar got to Cape Cod, I started to relax and enjoy the humor and recognize the subplots being woven into the main narrative arc. Finbar’s quick wit and thought processes sucked me in deeper and more meaningfully into his life. The growing knowledge of what shaped his life and the lives of his three siblings; how each of them reacted to their parents and each other; the, well, by the end of the book, I was thoughtful about my own family relationships and awed by the ways the author wielded his craft  of writing.

   I also down-loaded “Talk to  Me”.

   “   A brief history of time: from the big bang to black holes” by Stephen Hawking was available on-line, but I chose to down-load “A briefer history of time” by  Stephen Hawking; Leonard Mlodinow.

   I enjoyed reading these theories and the science behind them, but, I can’t say I’ll remember all of the implications or that I understood all that they discussed. It did; however,  give me points to ponder. 

From LeonardMlodinow.com:

   Leonard Mlodinow is a theoretical physicist and author, recognized for groundbreaking discoveries in physics, and as the author of five best-selling books. His book The Grand Design, co-authored with Stephen Hawking, reached #1 on the New York Times best-seller list; his book Subliminal: How Your Unconscious Mind Rules Your Behavior, won the 2013 PEN/E.O. Wilson award for literary science writing; and his book The Drunkard’s Walk: How Randomness Rules Our Lives was chosen as a New York Times notable book, and short-listed for the Royal Society book award. Dr. Mlodinow is also known through his many public lectures and media appearances on programs such ranging from Morning Joe, to Through the Wormhole, and for debating Deepak Chopra on ABC’s Nightline.

   I’m not real thrilled with the LGBTQ issue, however, as I got deeper into this gripping tale, it just didn’t matter.

A few take-aways:

— Death birds in Nick’s story, Ethon in my grandfather’s story, my taloned and feathered guilt complex.

— Even after all the running, Where you ended up, was the epicenter of your own wilderness.

— He approached the bed. It was like he was strewing more darkness with each step.

— The face was wrapped in bandages, but it didn’t smell medicinal. It smelled of stone, like earth, like something that came from earth itself.

— The feeling that you’re trapped and can’t get out wasn’t advertised on the Air B&B.

Promethisus’ soul, over time, got more and more barren. His body no more than an empty shell…His guilt returned to feast on his emotions.

— Alternat ending: Hercules shows up one day to save Prometheus from his pickle.

— Everything that you’re responsible for, comes back eventually.

— The same story over and over again.  How you did something as a kid and lived your life hoping that one day  you’d have the chance to redeem yourself,  to make amends.

— Every day, your path goes in circles

— In order to set our souls free, something had to be scooped out.

— It wasn’t such a leap of faith to imagine the weight of the blanket was actually your grandma’s arms embracing you.  That it was her sobbing that you heard, not the luring call of the echoes in the wind. My gaze was drawn to the Modee again. Only the summit was visible now, in the slowly shifting mist, the mountain floating in its breathless silence.

— A good horror story didn’t end with death, it resonated with the echo of something worse to come.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia:

Olde Heuvelt was born in Nijmegen, Netherlands. He studied English and American literature at the Radboud Universiteit Nijmegen and at the University of Ottawa in Canada, where he lived for half a year. In many interviews, he recalls that the literary heroes of his childhood were Roald Dahl and Stephen King, who created in him a love for grim and dark fiction. He later discovered the works of a wider range of contemporary writers such as Jonathan Safran Foer, Carlos Ruiz Zafón, Neil Gaiman, and Yann Martel, whom he calls his greatest influences.[citation needed]

   Don’t be offended, but, written by a Swede, then, interpreted into English, something is bound to be lost or added.  The beginning of this story reminds me of dumping out the 1000 pieces of a jig-saw puzzle onto the table-top. It is a jumble of separate pieces that don’t make much sense.

   After working on the puzzle and this story, things begin to take shape and the bigger picture slowly comes into focus.

   I enjoyed the last chapter, where the author looked into each of the hostage’s issues and how they were resolved. The beginning then made sense, too.

“We never know how your life is affected by mine…But, when you get home this evening, when this day is over and the night takes us allow yourself a deep breath, because, we made it through this day.  There will be another one tomorrow.”
