...FICTION?Cornwell first became interested in this mystery in 2001 when she had a conversation with a Scotland Yard investigator in London about Jack the Ripper. As she researched Sickert’s work, she became more and more disturbed by his live subjects’ “dead?? appearance and his other paintings of actual murder scenes. “Some of these sitters look dead.

...have collaborated with Swedish translators in the Harvard Scandinavian Club and the Athena Theater Company to merge two of Strindberg’s later plays. They have successfully created a coherent narrative, linking the themes of the abstract and dense “The Isle of the Dead?? with the more expository language of “The Pelican.” Seen from the perspective of a dead man (James M.

...Zombies. “Albion,” is the album’s high point, an elegiac tribute to working-class Britain. But these can’t save “Down In Albion” from its share of duds. “Back From The Dead?? is so boring that it feels as though it never lived in the first place. Kate Moss’ cutesy cameo on “La Belle et la Bête” starts the album off on a shaky, self-indulgent note. And both the slack...
