I currenty re-read My Sister in this House, a play by Wendy Kesselman, which was really disturbing. It is based on a real horrible incident, infamous Papin sisters. Check out the play & documents (there are few in French with subtitles) play is really good!

enealogical Crime Mystery Book Club
Philip Warren · oorndptSse17323a41519g7gi6m50u3i6t66m2hfht ·
Whether âWinterâs Deadâ is, strictly speaking, a genealogical exercise will up be up to the reader, I suspect, but when Detective Fletcher Strand realizes that a murder committed in 1924 has much to do with the spate of killings on his turf in 1990, a deep dive in to the family histories of more than one person, including his own wife, his world turns upside down.
A prime suspect is Eddie Snyder whoâs escaped from a state institution, and heâs out for revenge. Is he the one whoâs murdered two an old couple and two young boys? Why is he doing it?

Honestly, if I had time to read, I would re-read 1984 from George Orwell and The Handmaids Tale from Margret Atwood. They were both gloomy and kind of depressing to read still ⊠I think I read both books in the mid 80s. Somehow, I want to know how I think about them 40 years later. If we got closer to what seemed like, people would be too alert to let things like that happen.
Atwoodâs book was made into a movie by Volker Schlöndorff and Orwellâs by Michael Radford.
For some impressions there is a song of the soundtrack called 1984 by Eurythmics
The soundtrack of the Schlöndorff movie was done by Ryƫichi Sakamoto.
I wonât sugar coat it, these are neither easy to read nor to watch, but I wouldnât say that avoiding them should be the consequence. Sometimes I think it is necessary to leave the comfort zone and for once not for zombies, but zombies in human form. Gives you a lot of stuff to think about.
