Just finished reading this beautiful, fast-moving, tragic novel, "The Post-Office Girl" by Stefan Zweig. It was written in the early 30s but has only just been published in English. I think it will haunt me for a long while. Highly recommended (as are many other works by this under-rated writer).

We've been told about a karaoke theatre event took place last week in a Berlin apartment for five days based around "Go West". Two people had to pick up pieces of a
costume in the rooms of the apartment and then had to sing a karaoke version of "Go West". Every day there were approximately 30 groups (of two persons each) in the apartment. The performance was sold out. The theatre company is called andcompany &Co. Click on the links for more information and more photographs.
