Completely agree. I also think Rachel's pov is more powerful in the book. One of those times when book and film make the most of their respective medium. The film is visually haunting and lyrical. The book has a superb use of voice and language. Agree it should be better known.

Agree 100%. I was spellbound when I first saw the film, and the book possibly left even more of a mark on me. Such beautiful use of voice and language.

The categories are inscrutable!

The Art of Occupation gets its first top 5 spot... in Painting.

Glad you think so!

Time for coffee, I'd say.

The Jeu de Paume is where the Nazis stored a lot of the art they stole. In The Art of Occupation, Eddie tries to gain entry to track down some missing artworks. Here, he'll meet one person he admires, and another he fears.
The Art of Occupation – out 14 May.

Cabaret Bob Fosse's musical set in 1930s Berlin. Cabaret singer Sally Bowles is lovestruck by a naive young Englishman amid the city's louche cafe society.

Watching Cabaret for the nth time. The biergarten scene is still one of the most chilling moments in film.

Lovely tranquil way to start the day. Morning everyone.

Finally, I can share the blame for the slow passage of time.

My first event of 2026 and it's at a lovely community library run by volunteers. If you're anywhere near Rhoose on Friday 20th February at 7pm, please come along and say hello. I'll be talking about Eddie Giral and the Occupation series – there will be wine and nibbles! Tickets from Rhoose Library.

Thanks a lot, Ian. Very much hope you enjoy reading it. Have a good half term!

I've been reliably informed that today is International Croissant Day. Oh well, if I must...
