Book review: A boosterish case for atomic energy

3 weeks ago | taipeitimes.com | Dorian Lynskey

By Dorian Lynskey / The Guardian There is something biblical about the fraternal relationship between the atomic bomb and the nuclear reactor. Both involve bombarding uranium-235 atoms with neutrons to produce a chain reaction via nuclear fission. Both were made possible in the same instant, at 3.25pm on Dec. 2 1942, when the Manhattan Project’s Enrico Fermi orchestrated the first human-made chain reaction in the squash court of the University of Chicago.
Three plays follow relationships and racism across the ge...

Love threatens to tear apart a British Sikh family, Tamsin Greig glints in Rattigan’s brooding postwar masterpiece, and a corny Broadway hit makes for a hee-hawingly fun night out “Marriage is simply two people coming together to solve problems they didn’t have before,” someone quips in the new musical Shucked. This is rich soil for playwrights, who love problems. In Gurpreet Kaur Bhatti’s Marriage Material, directed by Iqbal Khan, romance is a secondary consideration if not a nuisance.

Il grande imbroglio dei concerti

1 month ago | internazionale.it | Dorian Lynskey

Perfino Donald Trump sa che il prezzo dei biglietti dei concerti è troppo alto. Di recente il presidente degli Stati Uniti ha firmato un ordine esecutivo per proteggere i fan dai “prezzi folli” attraverso il contrasto al bagarinaggio e alle spese di commissione nascoste. Al suo fianco, con un vestito molto colorato, c’era il cantante Kid Rock, sostenitore del movimento Maga (Make America great again). “Make America fun again” (Rendiamo l’America di nuovo divertente), ha detto Kid Rock.
"Mafalda," Latin America's Favorite Comic Strip, Revisited

1 month ago | airmail.news | Dorian Lynskey

On a bench in the San Telmo neighborhood of Buenos Aires, Argentina, there sits a statue of a beaming six-year-old girl in a lime-green dress and a ribbon in her bell-shaped hair. There’s another one like it, wearing ruby red this time, in a park in Oviedo, Spain. The girl’s name is Mafalda, and between 1964 and 1973 she was Argentina’s most beloved fictional character. Admirers of Mafalda and her creator, Quino, included Gabriel García Márquez, Charles M.
Jon Ronson: ‘Psychopath-spotting turned me a bit psychopathic myself’

1 month ago | inews.co.uk | Dorian Lynskey

When strangers ask Jon Ronson what he does for a living he says he’s a non-fiction writer. But if they press him for details, it gets tricky. “Then I get flustered,” he admits. “I say, ‘Psychology, funny stories, crazy adventures…’”That’s one way of putting it. From his first book, Them, 25 years ago to his BBC podcast Things Fell Apart, Ronson has specialised in people who go to extremes: conspiracy theorists, culture warriors, psychopaths, the radicalised and the disgraced.
Russell Tovey: ‘I realised I liked men in the shadow of Aids. I’d constantly mix sex and death’

1 month ago | inews.co.uk | Dorian Lynskey

Russell Tovey doesn’t like the term “role model”. He prefers “possibility model”, which he picked up from the actress Laverne Cox – a public figure who represents another way to live. The 43-year-old is quite the possibility model himself: an actor, film-maker and art buff who uses these fields to shine a light on the things he cares about. Sitting on his sofa in London, his bulldog Rocky snoring beside him, he likes to fast-forward through small talk and go deep.
Monday briefing: How Australia became the second nation in a week to reject the Trumpist right

1 month ago | inkl.com | Dorian Lynskey

Labor’s victory will strengthen the case of those who think that offering a moderate alternative to the kind of chaotic politics unleashed by Trump is the right approach for progressive parties – but, as the news of far right success in Romania in the headlines below suggests, that is not a universal playbook. We’ll return to Romania in the weeks ahead.
