The appeal of the locovore life, the chalkboard menu, the craft-paper tablecloth, the cream from the cow that lives in a meadow no more than 108 commuter minutes north of the Upper West Side of Manhattan, is the illusion of a controlled intimacy we've lost in a world where public space seems so imperiled by the maniacal expression of distant values and ideologies.

The Philippines of "Insurrecto" is wild and lush, beset by cruelty, boisterous in its embrace of the tacky relics of late-20th-century globalism — a place where Elvis ballads seem to "spring from the bamboo groves"; where the news is full of bodies "piling up at the garbage dumps, in the slums, near schoolyards"; where karaoke singers, possessed by a "maniacal insomnia," wail drunkenly into the night.

Then, as the Nazis began to overrun Europe and the maniacal voice of Adolf Hitler crackled over the radio, as Kristallnacht shook the world, powerful voices right here at home, of men like Father Coughlin, Henry Ford and Charles Lindbergh, railed against American Jews — immigrants and the children of immigrants — pushing the country toward war, these men claimed, to rescue their co-religionists in Europe.

And the two share a metaphorical daydream in which they take a stroll through a mall, buy jewelry with an upside down American Express card, hit the beach, paint art on a museum wall and go for a five-star dinner, only to reject it all by stomping on the red shoes mentioned in the song, which here evoke cinema's other fantastical red shoes — from Dorothy's to the maniacal ones of Michael Powell and Emeric Pressburger.

In the space of less than five years, in the short-lived but highly fertile gallery scene that sprung up in the East Village and at the legendary Green Gallery on 57th Street, he helped birth not only Pop Art but performance art as well, in maniacal productions with sculpture as props, staged with his first wife, Patty, now Patty Mucha, and compatriots who would later go on to fame as well, like Lucas Samaras and Carolee Schneemann.

We all know that maniacal drive to do all those summer things you only get a few months to do, and stitching them together is the thread of enjoying it while it lasts, a concept that really pours the pressure on, while failing to take into account both the earth's relationship to the sun and the overwhelming evidence suggesting that we're all in for a hell of a lot more summer if we don't stop destroying our planet.

As a prose writer she is naturally, even obsessively, digressive, and the book's loose, nonlinear form allows her to riff or ruminate on what can seem at times like a maniacal range of subjects, among them alcoholism, feminism, queerness, libraries, the transmigration of souls, the George W. Bush administration, the literal and metaphorical nature of varieties of foam, writers and writing, the art of tapestry, plaid cloth, and the uniforms of U.S. postal workers (Myles's father worked as a mailman).

Daemon X Machina uses a broad brush to characterize these pilots, which leaves the bulk of them somewhere between archetype and stereotype: Savior, an aristocrat with a noblesse oblige moral code and a goth's closet; Red Dog and Klondike, maniacal prisoners working off their sentences by blowing up malevolent robots and shouting about it; Artist, the dreadlocked, loud-music loving, uh, graffiti artist, who shares a merc company with the native-coded Falcon, whose (too limited) dialog is too often the sort of shared aphoristic wisdom given to such characters in lieu of meaningful characterization.

We deserve the truth: it's time to unmask Face ID. Digging into Face ID I realized that even if a maniacal criminal with a plastic surgery unit at his disposal was intent on stealing my identity — or, say, a financial criminal, or a security firm or government agency looking to create a database of faces — they wouldn't be able to do it using Face ID. Apple doesn't actually have any record of your face; using Face ID does not mean that you're "giving Apple your face" like I thought it did.

Eight years after Japanese promotion PRIDE Fighting Championship shuttered its doors for good; after eight years of increasing legitimacy and maturity for a sport born and bred in madness, a madness that reached its maniacal, circus-like apex in Japan; after eight years of turning a fundamental indecency into something decent, something acceptable, a sport we can share with our children, the lights once again went up at the Saitama Super Arena (home of true MMA madness!) this week, and the great drums pounded, and the announcer shrieked, and the Rizin Fighting Federation arrived, and with it came the return of MMA hysteria.

Though it's easy to notice the mechanics of a Carrère book — his characteristic inclusion of himself in the proceedings, his habitual inclusion of the process by which the book in question is being formed — what is genuinely original in Carrère's work is the sensibility that animates those varied approaches, infused as it is with Carrère's at-times-skeptical, at-times-maniacal way of thinking, his well-stocked intelligence, his spare, unfussily lyrical prose, his shameproof feed of uncensored interiority, his tireless storytelling energy and his unstinting attempts and, importantly, failures at maintaining sympathy for his subjects.

" Like a maniacal tour guide, Hoskote takes us into wasted provinces in "the kingdom of shadows" ("The Heart Fixes on Nothing"); rivers that sometimes run in your veins ("And Sometimes Rivers"); and a world which "empties itself": You shall build your citadels on silt said the preacher and sink your pride in spice currents take your parakeets and painted cormorants with you but leave the coconut palms and the Inca silver leave behind a bloodful of curses The figure in "Sycorax" wakes up trapped in a tree truck, "speech slurred, though all I'd drunk / was berry-blood.
