Friday, January 8,1993 SCENE C8 CALGARY HERALD Lang, Dion hot for Grammys What to do when your kid drives you crazy? Ken McGoogan Jf Heraid books editor couldn't speak English." Dion grew up in Charlemagne, a small town just outside Montreal. For pop duo or group, the nominees were the Dion-Bryson team, Genesis, George Michael and Elton John, Prince and the New Power Generation, and Patty Smyth and Don Henley. A divergent field was represented in the best new artist competition: country music's Cyrus, rocker Sophie B. Hawkins, rappers Kris Kross and Arrested Development, and pop singer Jon Secada. The nominations for country male vocal performance amounted to a five-way shootout among the genre's top stars.

Garth Brooks was nominated for the album The Chase, while Cyrus earned a bid for the single Achy Breaky Heart. Vince Gill got a nod for the album I Still Believe in You, while Randy Travis was nominated for the single Better Class of Losers. Travis Tritt was nominated for the single Lord Have Mercy on the Working Man. Contenders for female country vocal performance were Mary Chapin Carpenter for the single I Feel Lucky, Wynonna Judd for the album Wynonna, Reba McEntire for the single The Greatest Man I Never Knew, Lorrie Morgan for the single Something in Red and Pam Tillis for the single Maybe It Was Memphis. The Grammy Awards will be broadcast on CBS on Feb.

24 from the Shrine Auditorium in Los Angeles. Comedian Garry Shandling will be the host. The nominations were decided by members of the National Academy of Recording Arts and Sciences. Winners are then chosen in a final balloting of the 6,500 voting members.

Hart has done nothing else, he has demonstrated that picking a public fight can be profitable. Hart is the author of THE 100: A Ranking of the Most Influential Persons in History, revised and updated for the '90s (Citadel Press, $24). How about, for starters, ranking both Muhammad and Isaac Newton ahead of Jesus Christ? Or including John F. Kennedy while relegating Benjamin Franklin and Abraham Lincoln to a list of "honorable mentions and interesting misses." Hart offers arguments and thumbnail biographies.

And did I mention profitable? First published in 1978, The 100 has sold more than 60,000 copies. Precious few women turn up in the book, but here's a work that sets out to right that imbalance: AMAZONS, BLUESTOCKINGS AND CRONES: a feminist dictionary by Cheris Kramarae and Paula A. Treich-ler (HarperCollins, $19). Author Susan Faludi (Backlash) hailed the authors for having excavated women's long-buried linguistic roots: "Their work is an essential antidote and corrective to the many World-Ac-cording-to-Mr. -Webster dictionaries that have preceded it." Still among correctives, Dou-bleday has released a paperback version of WILD SWANS: Three Daughters of China, by Jung Chang It's an extraordinary memoir, an acclaimed family chronicle that evokes the sights, sounds and smells of 20th-century China.

As one reviewer noted, "This is a powerful, moving, at times shocking story of three generations of Chinese women, as compelling as Amy Tan." The challenge here to accomplish a clever transition to a series of financial planning books is beyond me. But, as we plunge, bump, into 1993, the time to acknowledge the Financial Times Personal Finance Library. Published by Penguin Books, it includes nine paperbacks written by experts and selling for $14.95 each among them THE MONEY COMPANION: Manage Your Money and Achieve Financial Freedom; MONEY FOR RENT: A Guide to Youth Dance Unlimited AUDITIONS When: 3. 1331 44th Avenue N.E.

What? More than halfway done and still no fiction? Two novels by David Adams Richards have turned up at $7.95 each in the New Canadian Library series published by BLOOD TIES and THE COMING OF WINTER.

The award-winning, New Brunswick-based author has published six novels, one collection of stories and two of poetry. Meanwhile, from the other end of the country, comes THE HARVEST by Vancouver-based SF writer Robert Charles Wilson (Bantam, $14). Wilson, whose five previous novels include A Hidden Place, Gypsies and The Divide, is emerging as an important voice in sci-fi. In The Harvest, he explores the nature of immortality and what it means to be human. Still in fiction, new novels by well-known authors include KING SOLOMON'S CARPET by Ruth Rendell writing as Barbara Vine (Penguin, $7); THE GROWN-UPS by Victoria Glendinning (famous as a biographer) (Random House, $12); and THE RUNAWAY SOUL by Harold Brodkey (HarperPeren-nial, $20).

Ex-Montrealers might want to check out CHARLIE KING'S MONTREAL: 50 Years of Photos 1942 to 1992, written and edited by Maurice Chenier (send $18.50 to Charlie King, PO Box 153, Lachine Postal Station, 2150 St. Joseph La-chine, Que. H8S 2N0). Finally, parents housebound as a result of the weather should pick up WHEN YOUR CHILD DRIVES YOU CRAZY by Eda LeShan (St. Martin's, $7).

It's full of good advice, spiced with humour and weighs the pros and cons of spanking.
