The woman in the window

By Alma De Groen

4 stars

Here's the goodreads book description if you're interested:In Stalin's Russia, the great poet Anna Ahkmatova is forbidden to write. In a future, denatured world, a young woman, Rachel, searches for what is missing in her life and the sterile world she inhabits. De Groen uses the lessons of a repressive, torturous chapter in history to illuminate an imagined sterile, artless future where the muses and gods of literature and science have virtually sunk without trace. In a world where a 'poet' means a man who researches poetry in the archives, where there is no nature or wildlife and the moon and stars are seen only in a virtual room created by accessing the science archives, Rachel becomes a dispossessed Akhmatova. When the literary archives, which are seldom accessed any more, are about to be switched off and the 'poets' de-listed, Rachel risks her life to save the poetry archives for future generations.

By Enda Walsh

First play written by Edna who also wrote Disco Pigs and Sucking Dublin. Irish playwright that writes gritty pieces, this one was obviously him testing out writing for the first time before he found his voice.

Sequel to 'Hangman' about a cannibal who helps the FBI solve crimes. Think Hannibal crossed with Inspector Rebus. Just started the 3rd book in the series. LOVE Jack Heaths writing.
