Books a good escape

Among the new goodies at the
library this week are several ‘classy’
bestsellers. They are good escapist
reading for the garden, beach or
lakeside.

Ruth Harris's Love and Money is a
story about (you've guessed it) love
and money, and how to make them.
Spanning the years from the end of
World War II and the present and set
in the background of Manhattan's
Wall Street, it’s a stylish and satis.
fying read about the rich and their
terrible problems.

One woman's trust fund makes her
rich and famous from the minute of
her birth; another is born illigitimate
and inherits nothing except the
talent for making money. Their paths
would never have crossed but for the
fact they love the same man.

Colin Forbes is a popular thriller
writer and his latest spy novel The
Janus Man is a runaway bestseller in
England.

Treason is the theme and Forbes’
master spy, Tweed, is trying to find
which of his four European sector
chiefs is betraying the network. His
search takes him on a desperate
chase throughout Europe. What is
the purpose of the conspiracy to
betray England's secrets and how is
the rapé strangulation of a young
woman connected to the conspiracy?

Privileged Lives by Edward
Stewart is another shocking tale of
high society and high glamour as well
as a gritty police procedural and a
riveting murder mystery.

In a private hospital suite, a queen
of New York society awakens from a
seven-year coma and the mystery of
her past is wakened with her. In a
high rise luxury apartment, a hide
ously mutilated body is found. A
dedicated police detective traces a
horrifying web of connection be.
tween the two cases.

The Orient Express continues to
hold a deep fascination for authors

and readers. Charlotte Vale Allen is
the latest writer to use its mystique,
to add to the drama of her novel
Dream Train. Only this is the new
Venice Simplon-Orient-Exptess.

Photojournalist Joanna James has
a plum assignment, to ride the
legendary train and spend five days
in Vanice. Her life is complicated as
she renews relationships with two
men on a stopover in London and she
has important decisions to make in
the course of the journey.

Quinn's Book is the new novel by
Pulitzer Prize winning author, Will-
iam Kennedy. It’s a raucous, lyrical
19th century, theatrical spectacle of a
novel, teaming with Dickensian
characters and bringing alive an ex
citing part of American history.

Daniel Quinn is an* orphan who
tells his own story of his adventure —
ridden quest for true love and the
answer to the elusive riddle of his
own fate. One day, in 1849, the
14-year-old Quinn rescues the won
drous Maud Fallon from drowning in
the icy Hudson and his life is never
the same again. His romantic tussles
are counter-pointed by Civil War
conflicts, kidnappings and murders,
and the strife between the Irish
immigrant workers and _nativist
Americans.

And for those who like real life ex.
citement and danger, we have K2,
Triumph and Tragedy by Jim Curran
During the summer of ‘86, nine ex
peditions set off to climb the summit
of the second highest and certainly
the most difficult and unrelenting
mountain in the world. Out of these,
27 climbers made it but 13 people
died, seven of them after reaching
their goal. Jim Curran, a climbing
camera man with the unsuccessful
British expedition, stayed on at the
K2 base camp through the whole
summer, getting to know the inter.
national climbing community camped
along what became known as the

Strip, and witnessing the cementing
of friendships, the break-up of part-
nerships and the dramas beginning.

Workouts That Work for Women
Whe Work is Barbara Pearlman's
useful book for working women
whose days allow them little time for
exercising-and whose figure prob-
lems are a direct result of a seden.
tary job.

She gives a series of easy-to-slip-
into routines from in-bed stretchers
to shower ‘shapers, towel toners;
through quick and sneaky exercises
to do while sitting in the office to
more acrobatic stretches to do in
front of the TV. We don't necessarily
have to be sexist about these, men
can do them too!

If you find there isn't enough
regular gardening to keep you busy,
you can always turn to the art of
topiary. With Barbara Gallup's The
Complete Book of Topiary, you too
can turn your hedges and trees into
turtles, peacocks and swans.-Nor we
do you have to restrain yourself to
the garden, she shows you how to
grow miniature herb trees in your
kitchen too.

Spycatcher is still big business in
the book world. Chapman Pincher,
the man to whom Peter Wright first
leaked the secrets that made him
famous (and revealed in Pincher's
book Their Trade is Treachery) now
reveals even more in his latest book
A Web of Deception. In this, he
discloses the political bombshell
which lay behind the British Gov-
ernment’s decision to permit the
publication of Their Trade is Treach
ery but tried to suppress Peter
Wright's Spycatcher, which was
largely a re-run of Pincher's book.
It's an astonishing tale of real con,
$piracy and fake conspiracy, decep-
tion and self-deception, and shows,
with insider authority, how ministers
and mandarins behave when issues of
extreme secrecy are being decided.

This weeks featured entertain-
ment in Kinsmen parks’ Concerts in
the Park was Fran Lamb and
Stephen Baal.

Fran Lamb is a versatile musician,
singer and composer from Nelson. He
has been-featured throughout the
Kootenays not only as the frontman
of several rock bands, but as an ac-
complished individual performer. His
strong voice and intricate instru-
mentation lent themselves well to
folk tunes. He was joined by
Castlegar folk musician Stephen

Baal.

Ball has previously performed in
concerts and night spots, both as an
individual musician, singer, song-
writer and as a member of a group.

Each performer performed separ-
ately and as part of a duo for a
variety array of original and old
favorite tunes.

The Castlegar Arts Council hopes
that people will come from their
businesses and offices to enjoy their
lunch at the concerts which begin in
Kinsmen park at noon.

ace film

OTTAWA (CP) — The Senate and
the National Film Board appear to
have finally settled their four-year
battle over a film about First World
War flying ace Billy Bishop.
Senator Jack Marshall — “with a
sense of some relief’ — tabled the
final report Tuesday of his com.
mittee’s inquiry into the film The Kid
Who Couldn't Miss.

The veterans’ affairs committee
obtained new information refuting
parts of the film and the film board
has agreed to add a new, more de
tailed disclaimer at the beginning of
the movie.

Like thousands of war veterans, “I
wanted, and I still want, the NFB to
withdraw The Kid Who Couldn't
Miss because it is a historically inac-
curate film that does not tell the
truth about a significant individual
Canadian,” Marshall told the Senate.

But-he said veterans will have to
resign themselves to the fact that the
film won't be withdrawn, adding in
an interview that “I think we did
everything we can.”

He said he is pleased with—the
NFB's decision last year to'produce a
new documentary on Canada’s role in
aviation during the First World War.
The film, titled Aces, will likely be
released by early 1990.

Dispute on air

settled

The Kid, released in 1983, suggests
Bishop faked a 1917 raid on a German
aerodrome, a feat for which he won
the Victoria Cross. Senators were
particularly incensed over dram
atized sections of the film in which an
actor playing Walter Bourne, Bis-
hop's mechanic, voices doubts about
the flyer's war record.

Senators have been examining the
film since 1984. In 1986, they sub-
mitted a report saying parts of the
film should be deleted and a
disclaimer added at the beginning.
The board added a toned-down dis-
claimer which relabelled the filma
docu-drama, saying it contained
dramatized segments.

The Senators didn’t like that and
continued their study, obtaining a
letter written by Bourne that shows
he believed Bishop's record.

“He is the mightiest pilot living
today,” Bourne wrote in a letter
written about 1962.
