6 out of 10 to Dante’s Inferno (1935). A truly weird film. Spencer Tracy is a carnival barker who teams up with a professor with an attraction based on the Inferno (!). Tracy jazzes it up on the cheap and there’s a disaster, along with a fantasy visit to the real inferno. tinyurl.com/2s45v4uz

4 of 5 stars to A Gate at the Stairs by Lorrie Moore. A naïve girl moves to a college town, meeting a range of new people, who mostly turn out to be a lot different than she first assumes. With a mordant but lyrical writing style the novel is full of surprising turns and social comment. #booksky
