culture By Suzannah Peckham Summer’s around the corner, and that means lots of free time to read. Whether you’re addicted to reading and it’s part of your everyday schedule or you have to plow through some books for next year’s classes, books are key. MPH teachers and staff members shared their top recommendations for summer reading. Mr. Preston, ELL Instructor Recommendation: “The Endurance” by Caroline Alexander Sra. Medina-Dooher, Spanish Teacher Recommendation: “Cien Años de Soledad” (“One Hundred Years of Solitude”) by Gabriel García Marquéz “It’s the gripping true story—with astonishing photographs by the National Geographic photographer who went along on the voyage—of Shackleton’s Antarctic mission that became icebound. It’s one of the great stories of human survival. The author, (who alternates her prose with diary entries of the explorers), transports you a century back in time and a world away, making it all astonishingly vivid.” Mr. Gregory, Physics Teacher “I love the magical realism genre. It’s fascinating how the author makes you an active reader of his work. It is a story with twists and turns in the plot. I like the novel because it isn’t easy to predict or foreshadow. It’s where a dream and reality are one and you don’t know anymore if it is a dream or reality. Some aspects of the book are almost mythological.” Ms. Strickland, School Psychologist Recommendation: “Good Omens” by Terry Pratchett & Neil Gaiman Recommendation: “Serena” by Ron Rash 12 “It’s a comedic take on ‘The Omen.’ Supernatural beings tasked with bringing about the Apocalypse discover that they rather like the Earth the way it is. It’s dark and hilarious.” “I love the strong female figure she presents, but I also abhor the way she goes off the deep end; think gender role reversal with similar tactics to MacBeth.” Find more teacher recommendations on thepebblemag.com
