Rebecca McNally's review
of
Entitled: The Rise and Fall of the House of York:
"Seen a two star review complaining that the “endless list of wrongdoings got tiresome”. HELLO? Isn’t that the whole point? Are we just living with the idea that holding people accountable is tiresome now!? With all the money in the world, Andrew mana"

of
Entitled: The Rise and Fall of the House of York:
"I took a break from reading all my ARCs to dive into the latest book on the Royal Family. Entitled chronicles the life of the Prince Andrew and Sarah Ferguson, the Duke and Duchess of York. Boy, did I learn a lot about these second-tier royals.

of
Entitled: The Rise and Fall of the House of York:
"Horrifying story
This book is an indictment of the royal family. By supporting and denying the despicable behavior of Prince Andrew and Sarah Ferguson, they are equally guilty. The incredible graft and corruption revealed in sordid detail go so far b" Read more of this review » |

Entitled: The Rise and Fall of the House of York:
"Accuracy-Based on a 2 star review that is inaccurate
I just downloaded the book but took pause when I saw a review stating the author was factually inaccurate. I was very alarmed by this since Mr. Lownie is a renowned historian. I just want to clarify" Read more of this review » |

quote
“There will always be enemies. Time to stop being your own.”
Larry Kramer |

“Almost more than talent you need tenacity, and an infinite capacity for rejection, if you are to succeed.”
― The Normal Heart & The Destiny of Me
― The Normal Heart & The Destiny of Me
“I belong to a culture that includes Proust, Henry James, Tchaikovsky, Cole Porter, Plato, Socrates, Aristotle, Alexander the Great, Michelangelo, Leonardo da Vinci, Christopher Marlowe, Walt Whitman, Herman Melville, Tennessee Williams, Byron, E.M. Forster, Lorca, Auden, Francis Bacon, James Baldwin, Harry Stack Sullivan, John Maynard Keynes, Dag Hammarskjold… These are not invisible men. Poor Bruce. Poor frightened Bruce. Once upon a time you wanted to be a soldier.
Bruce, did you know that an openly gay Englishman was as responsible as any man for winning the Second World War? His name was Alan Turing and he cracked the Germans' Enigma code so the Allies knew in advance what the Nazis were going to do — and when the war was over he committed suicide he was so hounded for being gay. Why don't they teach any of this in the schools? If they did, maybe he wouldn't have killed himself and maybe you wouldn't be so terrified of who you are. The only way we'll have real pride is when we demand recognition of a culture that isn't just sexual. It's all there—all through history we've been there; but we have to claim it, and identify who was in it, and articulate what's in our minds and hearts and all our creative contributions to this earth. And until we do that, and until we organize ourselves block by neighborhood by city by state into a united visible community that fights back, we're doomed. That's how I want to be defined: as one of the men who fought the war.”
