Proof - David Auburn - A Short Summary and Review

A short summary of the play Proof:

Reconciling grief, love, resentment, trust, and talent.

My favorite David Auburn quote from the book:

"I trusted you. Was I wrong?"


Questions I pondered while reading the book:

Is it possible to spend too much time alone?

Why is independent education so mistrusted?

My review of Proof:

I *really* want to see it live now.

The play has a good flow.

I admire genius.

Contact - Carl Sagan - A Short Summary and Review

A short summary of the book Contact: A radio broadcast from the great beyond proves that we are not alone.

Questions to ponder while reading Contact: Which of humanity's accomplishments are you most proud of? Which of humanity's accomplishments are you most ashamed of? My thoughts about Contact: A good glimpse of how humanity will act at first contact. I am sort of ashamed of what we would say for ourselves. Maybe we should think about that. ****** ********************************* a.d. elliott is a wanderer, photographer, and storyteller living in Salem, Virginia.  In addition to her travel writings at  www.takethebackroads.com , you can also read her book reviews at  www.riteoffancy.com  and US military biographies at  www.everydaypatriot.com Her online photography gallery can be f...
