”Springsteen on Broadway”
Netflix
It is wonderful also for us, who knew that it would be wonderful. In the tv version of his absurdly sold-out Broadway show will be Bruce Springsteen seriously a genuine rapsod – the vagabond singer and storyteller who enthralled the audience in ancient Greece. Also two moderately excited teenage girls get caught inexorably in front of the tv, häpnande before berättarkraften, musikaliteten, the covered smärtpunkterna. When Springsteen first speaks about the love for his mom and then makes ”The wish” – the song of how pleasant the sound of her mother’s make up bag saved him from the depressive urge in her father’s eyes – deficiencies in all cases, all of my dams.

”Female nobel prize winners in literature,”
”Female nobel prize winners in literature”
14 the author/7 publisher
The hard package? ”14 female nobel Laureates in literature” – with a beautiful cover by Kristin Lidström – is good to. What a good förlagsidé! Just this fall, then no Prize will be awarded, and all thinking women are dropping out of the Swedish Academy, the reminder of which still had the price through the years. Seven publishers are cooperating on the project. I would love to have all of the authors collected in a box. I have to choose, we make a stjärnpaket of Svetlana Aleksijevitj (Ersatz), Alice Munro (Atlas) and Wislawa Szymborska (the Life). Funny when the smaller publishers hit the right. Titles? ”War has no female face”, ”Too much happiness” and ”Late poems”.

In January released the year’s most acclaimed literary works in Swedish, which translated a little odd from the original title ”There there”. But whatever the language, it is a powerful story from several perspectives depicting the complexities of life in the slitningen between heritage and the present the american aborigine in the united states. It is furious at times – as in the introductory essay of all the genocide committed in the white civilisation in the name – fun and sometimes – as in the chapter with the förstoppade Edwin, at times reminiscent of ”Portnoys trouble”. It is masterly how a common theme can be stretched out to such an impressive breadth of stories.
