The Writing of One Novel
In The Writing of One Novel, Irving Wallace shows how the basic idea of a novel about the Nobel Prize awards took form over sixteen years, tells of the false starts, the persistent detective work, the many drafts, the elation, the despair, the work inseparable from the writer’s craft. His book has been widely hailed as a unique portrait of a writer’s work. John Barkham, Saturday review syndicate: “How do novelists create works of fiction? The answer—better than any critic could hope to give it—is provided in this literary autopsy by Irving Wallace, one of the most widely read novelists of the day I cannot recall ever having read a laboratory report of this type before. No one inter...

Nobel Prizes And Nature's Surprises
Each year the Nobel Prizes in the natural sciences reveal amazing discoveries. New milestones in the relentless advance of science are identified. The growth of knowledge and its evolution can be researched in the Nobel archives where nominations are kept secret for 50 years after the awards have been made. They represent a treasure for real-time assessment of science. Norrby's earlier book, Nobel Prizes and Life Sciences (2010) examined the unique archival records until 1959.The present book takes us up to 1962, surveying a range of dazzling discoveries. All prizes in immunology are reviewed. Their impact on our capacity to control infectious diseases and transplant organs are highlighted. The Nobel year 1962 is exceptional in recognizing the most major advance in biology since Darwin in 1859 presented his theory of evolution. This was the dramatic discovery of the double-helix structure of DNA by Watson and Crick in 1953. The era of molecular biology had begun. Its explosive development continues into the present.
Vem älskar Alfred Nobel?
Vem älskar Alfred Nobel? (2001) studerar Alfred Nobels personlighet, kärleken till österrikiskan Sofie Hess, som förtigits, och dramat "Nemesis", som hemlighållits. Dramat iscensätts i fantasin och den fruktansvärda upplösningen förbluffar. Den som beslutat sig för en sådan slutscen vet vad han menar med dikt "i idealisk riktning". Sådant skrivs av konstnärer som inte tvekar att provocera, vilt och radikalt om så behövs. Vilgot Sjöman (1924-2006) debuterade 1948 med romanen Lektorn och började sedermera också skriva för film och regissera, kanske allra främst Jag är nyfiken Gul/Blå.
