The Time of the Tans
'The Black and Tans [raises voice] raided my aunt's house where my mother was in bed at three o'clock in the morning ... I was due to be born three days later ... she got a stroke of paralysis and lost the power of all her left side. So I never saw my mother walk ... she could get around with the aid of a chair.'Stories of the Black and Tans have been told across Ireland since the force was first released into the country in March 1920. Casting a dark and lingering shadow, they remain an evocative and emotive category of memory. For people who lived through it and those who inherited associated stories, the Black and Tans were the embodiment of British repression, violence and malevolence. T...

Robert Durst: The Unbelievable True Story
News sources said in April 2015 that millionaire Robert A. Durst is having some problems with the law in New Orleans (and in California). The lawyers of Mr. Durst want to call the agents that arrested him on felony weapons and drug charges in New Orleans, to be witnesses. The purpose of that is to prove that the evidence they got in New Orleans at the time of the arrest of Robert Durst was obtained illegally, thus it could not be used against Mr. Durst. And in California, Mr. Durst is accused of killing his longtime confidant, Susan Berman. There is expected to be a lengthy court battle in California related to the killing of Susan Berman. Before the authorities send Robert A. Durst back to California for a court battle there, he may have a trial in Louisiana on the weapons and drug charges.

George Eliot, European Novelist
Reading George Eliot as a European novelist among other European novelists, John Rignall explores her use of European travel, scenes and locations in her fiction and also places her novels in conversation with the work of other major European writers. Throughout the book, Rignall shows Eliot's engagement with the cultures of France and Germany, suggestively making the case that Eliot's novels belong to the tradition of the European novel that descends from Cervantes. Rignall develops the fundamental theme of Eliot's position as a European novelist in chapters that explore the significance of Eliot's first visit to Germany with G. H. Lewes, Eliot's ideas on the cultural differences between Fr...
