Moving from the Jewish slums of pre-war South Philadelphia to the invasion of Germany, from a Florida retirement village to New York’s Wallkill Prison, from the heyday of the space program to the twilight of “the American Century,” Moonglow collapses an era into a single life and a lifetime into a single week. Unfolding as a deathbed confession from grandfather to grandson, it is a tale of madness and model rocketry, of war and adventure, of love and desire, of the shining aspirations and demonic underpinnings of American technological accomplishment at mid-century and, above all, of the destructive impact-and the creative power-of the keeping of secrets and the telling of lies. ![]() In his new novel, Moonglow, Chabon explores truth and lies, family legends, and existential adventure. ![]() ![]() ![]() Unfortunately, the one person to whom his personal debt is so large that he could require anything of Janson is calling in his marker. The spy game ended up costing him everything that was most important to him and it would take a lot to lure him back into it. Paul Janson is a retired operative, now a highly sought-after and extremely selective security specialist. Whicher is a provocative work of nonfiction that reads like a Victorian thriller, and in it author Kate Summerscale has fashioned a brilliant, multilayered narrative that is as cleverly constructed as it is beautifully written. Though he would be vindicated five years later, the real legacy of Jonathan Whicher lives on in fiction: the tough, quirky, knowing, and all-seeing detective that we know and love today: from the cryptic Sergeant Cuff in Wilkie Collins’s The Moonstone to Dashiell Hammett’s Sam Spade. Without sufficient evidence or a confession, though, his case was circumstantial and he returned to London a broken man. Whicher quickly believed the unbelievable – that someone within the family was responsible for the murder of young Saville Kent. At the time, the detective was a relatively new invention there were only eight detectives in all of England and rarely were they called out of London, but this crime was so shocking that Scotland Yard sent its best man to investigate, Inspector Jonathan Whicher. ![]() ![]() Nick Cave’s body of work encompasses a wide range of media and modes of expression, with narrative forms at its heart. Created for The Black Diamond of The Royal Danish Library in Copenhagen, and with Cave as a co-curator and co-designer, the exhibition is an unorthodox fusion of biography, autobiography and fiction, asking what shapes our lives and makes us who we are.

Stranger Than Kindness: The Nick Cave Exhibition is an unprecedented look into the creative world of musician, storyteller and cultural icon Nick Cave. The exhibition was met with acclaim from press and visitors alike when it opened in Copenhagen in March 2020. ![]() There are currently no plans for the exhibition to travel to the USA. ![]() This is the North American premiere of the exhibition, which was previously presented at The Black Diamond, Copenhagen, Denmark. ![]() Stranger Than Kindness: The Nick Cave Exhibition opens Friday, April 8 at the Galerie de la Maison du Festival in Montreal. ![]() ![]() There's little to go on in terms of plot, but it seems as if there's a longing to return to something familiar and serene, hence her character's eventual return to Orkney.
