...straight American teenager walk into a café” (Algiers, to be precise) sounds more like a weak joke than the convening of kindred spirits. Circumstances don’t help, either–the room is noisy, and I have to lean forward and ask for frequent repetitions to understand Hollinghurst’s Oxonian accent and quiet, rapid delivery.His opinion of my dubious comprehension, as well as his passion for precision and le mot juste, quickly becomes apparent. After describing his writing process as “putting on the veil,” Hollinghurst explains...
...never progressed beyond muttering my sympathies for his bird and his girlfriend, the fact that the boy through the other fire door in my room lived in the same entryway offered more opportunities for interaction.

"But he said he'll make some calls and get back to me in the morning." The performance was vintage Benigni, a longtime leftist and frequent Berlusconi basher. But, above all, the spectacle was an awesome display of Celentano's media might. Since first airing two weeks ago, RockPolitik has smashed all ratings records; some 12.5 million Italians, a 49% audience share, tuned in to see last week's show. Celentano is pulling them in with...
