5 cultural experiences that I have enjoyed this year
3 CommentsThis is not child neuropsychology but five cultural experiences that have had a impact on me so far this year. Just thought I would share them.
History of the world in 100 objects. A wonderful collaboration between the British Museum and the BBC telling the story of the world through a selection of 100 objects at the musuem.
The new Vampire Weekend album Contra. Clever music to make you feel happy.
The Stieg Larsson millennium trilogy The Girl with the Dragon TattooThe Girl Who Played with Fire
and The Girl Who Kicked the Hornets’ Nest
Compelling psychologically driven page turning reading.
Cormac McCarthy The Road
– One of the most emotionally powerful books I have read for a while.
Channel 4 India season The people and particularly children living in the slums of Mumbai have so much to teach us about how we live in the west.

I wish I saw the British Musuem exhibit. That looks interesting. I’ll have to check out those books.

Thanks Christine. The British Museum 100 objects is also on the radio (including world service) and a podcast and really well done- check the BBC website for details.

I am unable to put the Stieg Larrson books down – thank heavens for a wet bank holiday! The central character , Lisbeth, is enthralling.
