![]() ![]() The locals don’t favor the couple with their business until-well, it would give too much away to talk about precipitating events, except to say that Scott has a way of being just where he’s needed in the midst of inclement weather, to say nothing of a gift for setting a good example of neighborliness. But what is it that’s remaking Scott-diabetes, cancer, a change of metabolism? It’s not for want of eating: As King writes, “One of the benefits of his peculiar condition, aside from all the extra energy, was how he could eat as much as he wanted without turning into a podge.” An adventurous palate, curiosity, and a brace of pooping pups who leave bits of themselves on his lawn put him into the orbit of a married couple, two newcomer women, who have opened a vegetarian Mexican restaurant in a quiet town in-where else?-Maine. “So far.” There’s more weight loss to come, recalling horrormeister King’s Thinner (as Richard Bachman), though without the curse. ![]() “Twenty-eight pounds,” he tells a doctor friend.

About the Book In this pulse-racing, emotionally charged novel by James Patterson, the Womens Murder Club must find a killer-before she finds them first- Book Synopsis The Womens Murder Club is stalked by a killer with nothing to lose. ![]() ![]() ![]() With improved education and the freedom brought by secularisation, the 17th century saw several notable authors develop the Swedish language further. ![]() This translation is the so-called Gustav Vasa Bible. Swedish literature only flourished after the Swedish literary language was developed in the 16th century, which was largely due to the full translation of the Christian Bible into Swedish in 1541. Therefore, there are only a few texts in the Old Swedish from that period. With the conversion of the land to Christianity around 1100 AD, Sweden entered the Middle Ages, during which monastic writers preferred to use Latin. The first literary text from Sweden is the Rök runestone, carved during the Viking Age circa 800 AD. Swedish literature ( Swedish: Svensk litteratur) refers to literature written in the Swedish language or by writers from Sweden. ![]() ![]() Eliots late masterpiece Four Quartets does contain some. Fiennes’s encounter with Eliot is unique. Todays Text of the Day is a 4-for-1 special Although its not strictly an autumn poem, T. ![]() As the poet Daljit Nagra suggests in the programme, each person must seek their own Eliot. One instance: the way Fiennes (director and actor) transposes Eliot’s verbal textual allusiveness into physicalised theatrical layerings – of Shakespeare soliloquies, of wartime broadcasts, of Nijinsky’s Rite of Spring (this last, the closest the production comes, for me, to a sense of transcendence, as the narrator figure recounts the movements his body mirrors while he watches a medieval rustic courtship dance). If I have a hesitation about the conceptualisation, this is still a brilliant – really brilliant – piece of work. ![]() ![]() Implicit visual allusions, perhaps, to the fact that Four Quartets was published, as war still raged, also setting off resonances with the darker aspects of our own world today. Tonal contrasts between dark and light are given spatial quality through architectural, chiaroscuro lighting by Tim Lutkin (both used together to coup-de-théâtre effect). ![]() An overall sense of sombreness is intensified by Hildegard Bechtler’s set of soaring, grey slabs slanted to open on to a changing-colour suffused cyclorama.
