March 20, 2012 • In this week’s installment, we’ve dug deep into the archives to bring you this 1987 piece by Reg Whitaker lambasting the Mulroney government’s backward stance on refugees. “Murder by Decree” tells the story of how the Mulroney government—taking its cue from the Reganites to the south—concocted an immigration policy that left thousands of Central American...

Opmerkelijk toch, die parallellen tussen de (tussen)formaties van dit kabinet en het jaarlijks terugkerende Sinterklaasjournaal . Telkens weer lijkt het allemaal hopeloos in de soep te lopen. Het Grote Boek is zoek, de Opperpiet heeft de mazelen, de stoomboot is op drift geraakt op de oceaan. Net als de onderhandelaars in het Catshuis verkeert de Sint op een zeker moment steevast in 'een lastige fase'. http://www.vn.nl/

The intention of this 40th issue of The Drouth is to revisit some topics which have appeared in our pages over the Decade. Some five years back Rodge Glass examined the relationship between Word and Image in the life’s work of Alasdair Gray. That essay was ultimately reproduced as a chapter in Glass’s Alasdair Gray: A Secretary’s Biography (2008). If however, Gray’s artistic mission is an endless remaking and reimagining of Glasgow in word and picture then Miller takes here one step further in another endless task --the redescribing of Alasdair Gray. The excerpt from Thomas Reid’s Inquiry of course has a direct relationship to Gray the visual artist, as in that piece Reid analyses the work of painters. http://www.thedrouth.org/

5 April 2012 5 April 2012 4 April 2012 Adam Shatz The life of Claude Lanzmann, Claude Lanzmann declares at the beginning of his memoir, has been ‘a rich, multifaceted and unique story’. Self-flattery is characteristically Lanzmannian, but its truth in this case can hardly be denied. http://www.lrb.co.uk/

http://www.theoldie.co.uk/ No matter what the heir to the throne has to say on the matter, we are continuing to enjoy a miserable spring. To those of us dodging huge water sprays put up by passing cars, the hosepipe ban seems little more than an insult. Why not cheer yourself up by booking a holiday? We have two double rooms still available on our Taste of Burgundy trip. You will be based at the stunning Maison du Chateau near Montbard, and will spend a week in the company of our wine expert Robert Joseph, learning about wines, sampling delicious food, touring the exquisite countryside of Burgundy.

There is a landscape of murk and junk, dark water and black mud, trash and detritus and debris, desolate woods, rickety bridges over ugly rivers, rust and barbed wire, that lurks under a lot of Joyce Carol Oates’s writing. It’s a landscape where human beings can barely survive and that they have to struggle out of, but it’s always there, waiting to suck you down and back. It’s a good location for a creepy Gothic writer like Oates, who loves dank basements, the slimy grasp of the unconscious, horrors in the night.
