The Dogs - Film (2025)
LA TRAMA DI THE DOGS In fuga dal padre psicotico e violento, l'adolescente Cameron Weaver (Donovan Colan) si trasferisce con la madre Katherine (Kathleen Munroe) in una vecchia fattoria isolata, che sembra il luogo ideale per lasciarsi alle spalle il passato e ricominciare una nuova vita. Ma la casa e il terreno che la circondano nascondono un passato inquietante, legato alla morte dei precedenti proprietari.
Michael Cunningham on the Question of Scale in Writing
“It’s only a question of whether you’re looking through a telescope or a microscope.“ This first appeared in Lit Hub’s Craft of Writing newsletter—sign up here. Article continues after advertisement I don’t work on an epic scale, though my ambitions run more to epic proportions than I like to admit. It’s a question of focus. I don’t really see on an epic scale, not in the way of Tolstoy and Morrison and García Márquez. I’m wired differently.
The Great Literary B-Sides
How to Be Cultured Literature Who knew that there’s a major George Eliot novel that neither I nor any of my friends had ever heard of? “Romola” was Eliot’s fourth novel, published between “The Mill on the Floss” (1860) and “Middlemarch” (1870-71). If my friends and I didn’t get this particular memo, and “Romola” is familiar to every Eliot fan but us, please skip the following. “Romola” isn’t some fluky misfire better left unmentioned in light of Eliot’s greater work.

SEC's Greg Sankey vows 'responsible' use of power over college sports
ATLANTA - SEC commissioner Greg Sankey took issue with indirect criticism from his ACC and Big 12 counterparts. How dare they suggest that Sankey and Big Ten partner Tony Petitti make decisions in the best interest of their leagues to the detriment of college football overall? "I don't need lectures from others about the good of the game," Sankey said at the start of the SEC spring meetings in May. The critics were right, of course.
Michael Cunningham on Annie Proulx’s “Brokeback Mountain”
When I first read “Brokeback Mountain,” Annie Proulx’s seminal short story about gay cowboys in love, I wondered how I might carry it with me forever, literally, in the form of a tattoo. I’d loved countless stories before then but had never before felt the urge to actually wear one. I did not tattoo even a single phrase anywhere on my body, although I can still feel the urge as powerfully, and mysteriously, as I did in 1997, the year that “Brokeback Mountain” was published.

Takeaways from my experience in graph machine learning
So I needed to find a neural network architecture suited to link prediction on a heterogeneous, discrete temporal graph with weighted edges. Woof. Despite this hyper-specific constraint, I identified an algorithm which, with a few modifications to allow for variable edge strengths and the heterogeneity of the nodes, was suitable for my use case - a graph convolutional LSTM (GC-LSTM).
Michael Cunningham: New CFP media deal increases urgency for football schools to do their own thing
ATLANTA — ESPN reports that ESPN is negotiating a new media rights agreement with the College Football Playoff that will be worth nearly $1.3 billion annually. That would be more than double the amount of the current contract. The new CFP deal is the latest development in the inevitable split of big-time football schools from the rest of the NCAA. The Power 5 schools have gained more autonomy as they’ve generated exponentially more revenue.
Volunteers continue to help more than 200 dogs seized in Chatham Co.
BEAR CREEK — Following the humane extraction and extensive documentation of 214 dogs and puppies in Bear Creek, in two separate seizures, Animal Rescue Corps (ARC) is entering the fourth week of providing daily and compassionate care for the dogs at their Rescue Center outside of Nashville, Tennessee, including comprehensive medical, social, and physical care.
Michael Cunningham: More March sadness in store for men’s college basketball in Georgia
ATLANTA - The chances are high that the best event on the domestic sports calendar will take place without an entry from the state of Georgia. Once again, we'll watch the best college players from Georgia help schools elsewhere create memories in the NCAA men's basketball tournament. It seems there's not much sadness about the lack of March Madness in the state. It feels more like resignation and indifference.

Cunningham’s ‘Day’ is one of the best books of the year
‘Day’ By Michael Cunningham c. 2023, Random House $28/273 pages “She always had the feeling that it was very, very dangerous to live even one day,” Virginia Woolf, the groundbreaking, queer, gender-bending, feminist, novelist and essayist, writes in “Mrs. Dalloway” of Clarissa, a society woman, wife of a Parliament member and mother, who’s giving a party on a June day in 1920s London.

Michael Cunningham, the most elegant writer in the USA? In ‘Day’, the author renews exquisite language
- THE WASHINGTON POST – The only problem with michael cunningham is that it ruins you for the work of mere mortals. He is the most elegant writer in the United States. Admittedly, elegance doesn’t have much cachet these days, when important novels must make strident social arguments with which we already agree. But in the presence of truly beautiful writing, a kind of magic vibrates on the page. That’s the aura of Cunningham’s thoughtful new novel, Day.

What is your idea of perfect happiness? The very idea of perfect happiness. Who wouldn’t be happy about the proposition that happiness can be perfect? What is your current state of mind? Optimism and gratitude, so mixed up with nervousness, it’s hard to tell one from the others. What is your greatest fear? The fact that, until recently, “the end of the world” would have seemed pretentious and evasive, and now seems like the only possible answer. What do you consider the most overrated virtue?

By Michael Cunningham.
Nov. 2023. 288p. Random, $28 (9780399591341); e-book (9780399591358). REVIEW. First published September 15, 2023 (Booklist). Ordinarily, spring brings a measure of hope. But by focusing on one spring day, April 5, in each of the years 2019, 2020, and 2021, Cunningham (A Wild Swan and Other Tales, 2015) sets the stage for painful irony as his characters are wrung dry as they make it through one of the defining experiences of our lives, the COVID-19 pandemic.

What to Read When You Want to Reimagine Family
Picture a family. What do you immediately imagine—two parents and their children? Your answer likely depends on the kind of household you grew up in, or on the kinds you’ve known. What role might aunts, uncles, cousins, and grandparents play? What about neighbors, friends, and lovers? The American focus on the nuclear unit is far from universal—many cultures define family more broadly—and it is a limiting paradigm.

One year later, sports still aren’t as much fun
It played out like one of those disaster movies in which the threat is first noticed on a TV news report in the background. The main characters mostly ignore the danger and continue on with their lives as normal. Then, suddenly, the menace is thrust into the foreground, all heck breaks loose and nothing is normal. The novel coronavirus was a terrible thing happening Over There when I was at Braves spring training in Florida last year.
