Each of Sahei’s three daughters waits, hawk-like, with their husbands and children in tow. Everyone is breathlessly waiting for his will to be read, to reveal how his fortune will be divided. The powerful businessman Sahei Inugami has recently died, sending shockwaves through the local community, for whom he was a figurehead.

One of the many factors working in favour of this production is its use of a fresh translation by the late Ted Hughes. ![]() We should be grateful to Don Shipley, artistic director of the du Maurier World Stage, for bringing it to Toronto. Rather, it is the most gripping and most intelligent production of a Greek tragedy I have ever seen. The production by the Royal National Theatre of London, here as part of the du Maurier World Stage festival, however, is not “any” production. To see any production of this cornerstone of Western drama is something no theatre-lover should miss. Greek tragedies were first performed as trilogies and Aeschylus’ “Oresteia” is the only surviving such trilogy to come down to us.

The plot features thwarted romance, war, plague, immolations and self-immolations, set in a Machiavellian world ruled by privilege, cronyism and brute force. ![]() ![]() Arnau is a kindhearted, somewhat passive figure who combines piety, industry and cosmopolitanism to challenge a corrupt, dogmatic church and a parasitic nobility. Written by Ildefonso Falcones Nick Caistor (trans.) Set in 14th-century Catalonia, this novel has become a huge bestseller in Spain with translations sold in 32. Alas, his dizzying social assent and defiance of the feudal order provoke enraged aristocrats-his status-obsessed wife included-into siccing the Inquisition on him. Arnau Estanyol, son of a fugitive peasant, starts out in 14th-century Barcelona as a lowly porter who carries stone blocks to a cathedral construction site and ends up a rich moneylender who saves the city from pillaging and frees the serfs of a barony he acquires by marriage. ![]() Medieval Spain’s caste system can’t keep a good man down in this absorbing epic, a Spanish-language bestseller. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() The result is a credible and damning indictment of American intelligence policy. Many of the misadventures Weiner covers, at times sketchily, are familiar, but his comprehensive survey brings out the persistent problems that plague the agency. With its operations easily penetrated by enemy spies, the CIA was blind to events in adversarial countries like Russia, Cuba and Iraq and tragically wrong about the crucial developments under its purview, from the Iranian revolution and the fall of communism to the absence of Iraqi WMDs. ![]() Download it once and read it on your Kindle device, PC, phones or tablets. Meanwhile, Weiner contends, its proper function of gathering accurate intelligence languished. Legacy of Ashes: The History of the CIA - Kindle edition by Weiner, Tim. ![]() Hypnotized by covert action and pressured by presidents, the CIA, he claims, wasted its resources fomenting coups, assassinations and insurgencies, rigging foreign elections and bribing political leaders, while its rare successes inspired fiascoes like the Bay of Pigs and the Iran-Contra affair. Pulitzer Prize–winning New York TimesĬorrespondent Weiner musters extensive archival research and interviews with top-ranking insiders, including former CIA chiefs Richard Helms and Stansfield Turner, to present the agency's saga as an exercise in trying to change the world without bothering to understand it. Is the Central Intelligence Agency a bulwark of freedom against dangerous foes, or a malevolent conspiracy to spread American imperialism? A little of both, according to this absorbing study, but, the author concludes, it is mainly a reservoir of incompetence and delusions that serves no one's interests well. ![]() |
