Mr. Darcy\u2019s soaked white shirt is bound for these shores. You know the one: it doesn\u2019t exist in the pages of <em>Pride and Prejudice<\/em>, but Colin Firth made it famous in the 1995 BBC adaptation. And now: \u201c<a href=\"http:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2016\/03\/09\/arts\/television\/mr-darcys-shirt-is-coming-to-america.html?smid=tw-nytimesarts&amp;smtyp=cur&amp;_r=0\" target=\"_blank\">The Folger Shakespeare Library in Washington confirmed that it has secured a loan of the billowing white shirt worn by Mr. Firth in an indelible scene in the 1995 BBC miniseries of <em>Pride and Prejudice<\/em><\/a> \u2026 In the scene, Mr. Firth, playing the aloof Mr. Darcy, dives into a pond and emerges with the garment molded to his strapping physique \u2026 A half-serious proposal to keep the shirt wet and molded to its display dummy by using misters like those in the produce sections of grocery stores was deemed \u2018curatorially unsound\u2019 \u2026 But outside the protective glass case, the library is bracing for a humid reaction.\u201d<\/li>\n<li>Has the rise of the M.F.A. left a mark on American literature? Not really, according to two professors who have, as is their professorial wont, crunched the numbers, using \u201ccomputational text analysis\u201d to compare novels by writers within and without M.F.A. programs. They found \u201c<a href=\"http:\/\/www.theatlantic.com\/entertainment\/archive\/2016\/03\/mfa-creative-writing\/462483\/\" target=\"_blank\">no real distinctions at the level of language, themes, or even syntax. When we went further to test whether the way writers constructed their characters was any different, once again nothing significant showed up<\/a>. It was extremely difficult to separate the M.F.A. and non-M.F.A. writing groups in any meaningful way \u2026 The M.F.A. promises to make the distinction of race come alive, take on literary heft, through learning how to write and the work of writing. But we have no evidence that M.F.A. authors are any better at this than their less educated non-M.F.A. peers. If there\u2019s a quality that distinguishes a writer as Asian American or black, we could not find it.\u201d<\/li>\n<li>The French writer Serge Brussolo has published more than 150 books\u2014sometimes as many as three a year\u2014zero of which are available in English. That will change with <em>The Deep Sea Diver\u2019s Syndrome<\/em>, a 1992 novel about \u201ca gang of metaphysical burglars who enter a dreaming mind and pull daring heists to retrieve its treasures.\u201d (Christopher Nolan\u2019s <em>Inception <\/em>borrows liberally from the concept.) As Tim Martin writes, \u201c<a href=\"http:\/\/www.newstatesman.com\/culture\/books\/2016\/03\/strange-work-french-pulp-writer-serge-brussolo-finally-available-english\" target=\"_blank\">The anarchic surrealism at work in Brussolo\u2019s novel is such that it can never quite be reduced to a parable about the artist and society<\/a>. Like Burroughs in his cut-up fictions, or Ballard in the mad Californian dreamscapes of his <em>Vermilion Sands<\/em> stories, he is coolly at home in the deranged landscape he creates, in which hypnotists whisper cryptically to security cameras, dead dreams lie frozen in special vaults lest they explode when they thaw and flowers sprout wildly in cityscapes of the mind as the dreamers\u2019 bodies decay.\u201d<\/li>\n<li>Christine Smallwood on <em>The Paris Review<\/em>\u2019s anthology of new writing, <em>The Unprofessionals<\/em>: \u201cThere are more relationship problems here, treated in isolation; more people alone, talking to themselves, remembering. This is not an accident, but an aesthetic \u2026 <a href=\"http:\/\/www.bookforum.com\/inprint\/022_05\/15590\" target=\"_blank\">We continue reading not to see what will happen, but to find out how the narrator will think about whatever happens to happen. Though characters wake up in beds, walk around city streets, or drive in trucks, they do not really live anywhere except their own minds<\/a>. They sense place as one might sense a phantom limb \u2026 Dislocation is not synonymous with disembodiment. A strong attention to bodily experience runs through <em>The Unprofessionals<\/em>.\u201d<\/li>\n<li>Today in facades: Jean Stein\u2019s <em>West of Eden: An American Place<\/em> is an oral history of Hollywood and Los Angeles that deploys, as Andrew O\u2019Hagan writes, \u201ca wonderful grace in uncovering a monstrous reality.\u201d He summarizes a story in the book about Jennifer Jones: \u201c<a href=\"http:\/\/www.lrb.co.uk\/v38\/n05\/andrew-ohagan\/i-want-my-wings\" target=\"_blank\">In later life Jones went to bed in full make-up and hair\u2014it took four hours every day\u2014just in case she was taken ill in the night and had to go to hospital<\/a>. Stephen Sondheim remembers seeing her in Ravello during the shooting of John Huston\u2019s madcap movie <em>Beat the Devil<\/em>. \u2018I recall her sitting at an umbrella table in the square,\u2019 Sondheim says, \u2018rehearsing a scene with Edward Underdown, who played her husband. Above the surface of the table she was bantering blithely with him, but below it she was tearing her napkin into shreds. This was not in the script.\u2019\u2009\u201d<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Today in dripping-wet Regency heartthrobs: this is not a drill, people.
