Samantha ParrishPublished 17 days ago in Geeks5 Feelgood Stories Of Kids In The Entertainment Industry
Viewers everywhere are still reeling from the horrifying revelations in the recent documentary Quiet On Set: The Dark Side of Kids' TV. The depth of Producer Dan Schneider's inappropriate behaviour around the sets of his Nickelodeon TV shows is apalling, even more so the series of missed warnings and adult failures that led to then-child star Drake Bell's sexual abuse at the hands of his acting coach, Brian Peck.
Kristy AndersonPublished about a month ago in GeeksThe Pearl by John Steinbeck
‘The Pearl’ is a well-known by under-read classic and, as a teacher, many of my students have absolutely loved it. Not just because it is short, but because it presents a storyline that is interesting and corrupting. Easy to read and easier to analyse, ‘The Pearl’ is one of Steinbeck’s hardest hitting classics with an underlying message about protecting what is actually important. By the end of the book, the reader is left defeated and believing in the wrong thing. The idealism around this book is incredible and it is so dark too. For a long while you are supporting the wrong people, thinking in the wrong way and the whole story becomes one long act of misdirection by Steinbeck to show in a ‘Monkey’s Paw’ fashion why we should never chase wealth and status.
Annie KapurPublished about a month ago in GeeksMy Unpopular Literary Opinions
I have a vast amount of fairly unpopular literary opinions. From books that I feel have been overhyped to classics that I think are just people trying to sound intelligent without having any real value. From clichés and boring genres that take on no other form whatsoever to writers who are really not as great as everyone thinks they are. Here are some of my most unpopular literary opinions made flesh. I hope that you enjoy them and that we can maybe have a balanced discussion about it. (Also, please don't hate me. These are just opinions and are in no way representative of anything factual at all).
