ANGEL IN THE FOREST, a sweeping historical study of two men, their cult-like followers, and their failed utopias. Lyrical and sprawling, this tour of 19th century American heartlands was a critically acclaimed success in 1945, and won Young multiple awards and countless readers.

Deborah Smith, first-time translator, pitches The Vegetarian to a publisher, gets commissioned to translate it. Founds Titled Axis Press, innovative publisher of translated fiction. The Vegetarian wins the Intl Booker (Smith is co-winner). All achieved before she turns 30.

New on the blog today, my thoughts on ANGEL by Elizabeth Taylor. The genius of this novel lies in Elizabeth Taylor’s immense skill in creating a complex, monstrous character who also elicits the reader’s sympathy. A late entrant for #SpinsterSeptember! jacquiwine.wordpress.com/2024/10/06/ang…

Columbo is so big in Japan that there’s a series of books and TV movies titled "Columbo of Shinano," featuring a detective who dresses and behaves like him. I've no idea what he's saying in this clip, but I can guess.
