The young susanna, Margot, has fled from his old life and is living with his own teenage daughter, Pearl, in a car on a caravan parks in Florida. They feed on dried goods, and stolen cigarettes and spend their time down at the river, full of alligators and bullets. When Margot meets Eli wonder Pearl: ”She could all of the songs, so why did she become hoptussad and scruffy of him?” ”Gun love” is a poetic, romantic, nasty novel about AMERICA’s relationship to the weapons but more about love at first sight, sticky days in the church, and the feeling of being completely alone in the whole world.

once again, Peter Doherty put in an appearance, this time for the BBC, but the reason was new: an infection in the hand, after having saved a hedgehog from his dog. Yet illustrate it in a wonderful way his ability to make life unpredictable, which is also evident when he writes proper songs, and in front of them, in good (well) order with yet a new band, now with the violin. Way to sing still gives the impression that he just came on this, and it must out before he forgets, in a stumbling, easily introvert stream of consciousness that gets his squiggly songs to dance on light feet than should be possible.

Spring beautiful naturbilderbok kvillrar of life. The hare jumps, frogs kväker, the beavers gnaw and the moose glides forward, ”hyschligt quiet on long legs”. The book moves from spring to autumn, with spring all kvittriga birds on the first spread and a sleepy brummelbjörn on the last, autumnal.
There are two of our kunnigaste that made the book, and the illustrator Anna Bengtsson uses every opportunity to impart knowledge on bird vocalizations, bävrars builds and grävlingars burrows. Åsa Lind on his side, writes kongenial barnbokspoesi with numerous rim and inrim, assonanser and allitterationer. Non-fiction book or fiction? No, to both.

the Renovation and the new permanent exhibition
just Over four years it took – but it was worth it. The locals have got back its city museum, nyputsat and exposed from the ugly add-ons. In addition, with a total redesigned permanent exhibition, with new perspectives and stories, where in the past, where community groups and taboo subjects have been included. What makes me happiest is the sympathetic renovation, which highlights the Nicodemus Tessins stately 1600-century building and let in the light again. Especially in the beautiful stairwell and gallerigångarna. Fun also with more art, photography, and other historical artifacts. Exhibition is near enough doubled, with a string of 31 busy halls. the Birgitta Rubin

After the jagsvaga, trashiga and kärlekskranka fångvårdaren in the ”Escape at Dannemora” does Patricia Arquette still a phenomenal portrayal of a reality based series. In this bizarre symbiosdrama glistening Arquette as Dee Dee Blanchard, a mother who is suffering from Münchhausen by proxy and thus using his daughter as a kind of carriers of the disease (eminently played by Joey King). ”The act” is a genuinely claustrophobic, uncomfortable and captivating series that is also about acting on several different levels. The tragic story of Dee Dee and Gypsy Blanchard were also in the HBO documentary ”Mommy dead and dearest”. the Nicholas Wennö
