As I've written about in my book on the series and elsewhere, Game of Thrones has derived an astonishing amount of power from being both a traditional fantasy story — one where kids come of age, embark on magical quests, and discover that they're the true heirs to the throne — at the same time as it subverts traditional fantasy story tropes.
My grandmother's admirable grit, which she displayed in just about every aspect of her long life (she variously credited these qualities to having been born breach and not breathing or to having come of age during the Great Depression), not only helped see me through my troubled teens and early adulthood, it has become the subject of my life's work.

If not, it will mean the death of a partnership that has defined and organized the international system to our collective advantage since World War II.

Hajdu favors well-ordered statements over half-mad village-square pronouncements, and I wouldn't be surprised if the sanity of his approach had something to do with his having come of age in the wake of pioneering rock critics like Paul Williams, Robert Christgau, Greil Marcus, Richard Goldstein, Ellen Willis, Nick Tosches and Lester Bangs, all of whom made their names in the 1960s and '70s and three of whom will make you tear your hair out, despite their obvious intellect, talent, chops, élan, etc.

Former One Direction member Harry Styles sent fans into a frenzy on May 12 with the release of his self-titled solo debut record, which debuted in the Top 10 everywhere from Azerbaijan to the US.
