A Little Life

by Hanya Yanagihara

Publisher: Doubleday

A Little Life follows four university friends, Jude, Willem, JB and Malcolm, who start their adult lives in New York City after graduating from a famous New England college. They attend parties, go on dates and gain professional success.

What sets this novel apart is that Yanagihara explores larger issues through her work.

As the story unfolds, Jude's mysterious and painful past comes into view. When Jude's friends try to help him, they start to realize the limits of love.

Yanagihara rids the novel of any great events and important figures in New York. This allows readers to make close connections with the characters' emotional lives.

Between the World and Me

by Ta-Nehisi Coates

Publisher: Spiegel & Grau

Ta-Nehisi Coates, a journalist for the Atlantic, explains what it means to be an African-American in the US in his latest book Between the World and Me.

Following the style of James Baldwin's 1963 book The Fire Next Time, Coates addresses the serious racism（种族歧视） in the US.Interestingly, the book is written in the form of an open letter to Coates' 14-year-old son Samori. Through its pages, Coates hopes to prepare Samori for the challenges that young African-Americans face on the street and even in school.

What makes this book stand out is Coates' great writing skill.“The language of Between the World and Me, like Coates' journey experiences, is deeply moving, well-expressed, and beautifully encourages personal reflection,” the US Nobel Prize-winning novelist Toni Morrison commented.

Every summer artists perform at Fringe Festivals around the world. Fringe Festivals are a celebration of strange art. They have all kinds of performers—from dancers, musicians and actors to everything in between. The shows give artists a chance to create unusual art. For festival goers, each show is a time to experience something different.

The first Fringe Festival was held in Edinburgh, Scotland in 1947.That was also the year of the first Edinburgh International Festival. Artists from around the world traveled to Scotland for the Edinburgh International Festival. They performed at arts centers throughout the city. Eight local theater companies did not receive an invitation, however. In response, they performed at smaller spaces around Edinburgh. These artists performed wherever they could, including churches and even on the street. They started their own cultural event and named it the Edinburgh Festival Fringe.

What started as an alternative to the mainstream has now become the world's largest arts festival. Today, there are hundreds of Fringe Festivals taking place around the world. The one in Washington D.C., called the Capital Fringe Festival, is in its tenth year. It was held in the month of July.

Julianne Brienza founded the Capital Fringe Festival. She went to a school for the performing arts, but now sees herself mainly as an organizer of the festival. Brienza believes that fringe performance art is special and can have a powerful effect.

The Capital Fringe Festival takes place in different locations throughout the D.C.area. Some performances happen in traditional theaters. Others happen in unusual settings like old, empty buildings or stores after business hours are over.

Brienza says the purpose of Fringe Festivals is to explore the limits of art in unique environments. Since 2006, the event has made more than $1.7 million. It is the second largest Fringe Festival in the US and its popularity has grown every year. The Edinburgh Festival Fringe continues throughout the month of August.

4. Who may be interested in Fringe Festivals?

A. Strange art lovers. B. Professional artists.

C. Classical musicians. D. Traditional culture supporters.

5. What does Paragraph 2 mainly talk about?

A. It is the world's largest arts festival.

B. It has no fixed places for celebration.

C. It can never be accepted by the public.

D. It has a longer history than other festivals.

7. Which of the following may Brienza probably agree about Fringe Festivals?

A. They raise people's love of festivals. B. They limit the development of arts.

C. Formal arts are looked down upon. D. Chances are offered to unusual arts.
