Discovering Diamonds Review: “A Painted Samovar” by Sarah Roux

22 Saturday Sep 2018

A Painted Samovar by [Roux, Sarah]

“A Painted Samovar” by Sarah Roux is the moving and epic saga of one man’s involvement in the Manchurian conflict between Russia and Japan and then in WW1 / the Russian Revolution. It is a story of multiple challenges and the will to preserver.
The main story is nicely surrounded by scenes in London, 1967, when a former friend arrives at the family home to visit the now deceased Isaac.

The story then jumps back to 1905 as Isaac fights against the Japanese. The portrayal of the war scenes and Isaac’s perspective of it is very well-done; the situation of Jews in Tsarist Russia and their culture seems well-researched and authentic and is very fascinating.
The narrative jumps to the East End of London in 1912, where – now a cabinet maker – Isaac founds his family. Again, I enjoyed the detailed scene setting and the well-chosen characters. Isaac faces deportation back to Russia which separates him from his family. The rest of the novel is his struggle to return to them.
This is a compelling and inspiring read, sometimes harrowing, and historically rich, bringing to my attention yet another lesser known fate, shared by some 4000 people. Knowing that this is inspired by the author’s own family makes the story all the more powerful and captivating.
Well done.

Blurb:

Isaac, a Jewish cabinet maker fleeing his troubles in the Pale of Settlement, arrives in the East End searching for a measure of peace. When he falls in love and marries his employer’s daughter Sophie, he believes he can turn his life around. But with the outbreak of war, his new world begins to unravel. Still traumatised from his younger days in the Tsar’s Army, he is too afraid to fight in the trenches for his adopted country and after months of prevarication he is sent back to Russia in 1917.

Cast adrift in the boiling cauldron of revolution, he holds onto the memory of Sophie and their children as he struggles to survive. Travelling through the chaotic landscape with his friend Max, Isaac finds his inner strength and courage in a remarkable set of adventures, as he embarks on his epic journey home.

Lamenting one of history’s forgotten footnotes, A Painted Samovar weaves the tale of one man’s mistakes and misfortunes and an extraordinary twist of fate…

Review: “In the Shadow of Light” by Elaine Orr

21 Friday Sep 2018

Posted by Christoph Fischer in Uncategorized

≈ 3 Comments

“In The Shadow of Light” by Elaine L. Orr is a dramatic read that will pull on your heart strings as it illustrates the human suffering caused by the recently so strictly implemented separation policy for immigrants and their children in the US.

Headlines and scare politics about immigrants – these days as well in the past – can easily turn people and humans into numbers. And it can turn other people into unfeeling robots. Orr does a fantastic job at tipping those scales back to more realistic and a humanitarian appraisal of the situation.

Orr created excellent characters with relatable and likeable traits that allow us to feel and understand the problem, yet she has woven it into a dramatic and suspenseful and entertaining novel.

Corozón, her mother, and little brother Pico have left Honduras to seek asylum in the U.S. Grandfather Tito and her father Manuel saved the life of Colonel Bill, an American soldier, many years ago. It’s probably part of the reason Corozón’s father was murdered. They believe they are fleeing to safety, but don’t know about the family separation policy. While they flee northward, the daughter and friend of the DOJ employee who has become the face of the policy attend a birthday party. But they don’t make it home. Someone wants young Kyra’s father to feel the pain of the separated families. Thanks to a nighttime photo snapped by a freelancer, Corozón’s terror at having her little brother pried from her resonates with many. A Washington Post reporter joins Colonel Bill to try to find the family. But the DOJ isn’t helping nearly as much to get young Kyra released. Two families, different circumstances, scary options.

Highly recommended.

Review of Not Thomas

if you’d told me that I’d sit, totally rapt, reading a book written in the voice of a five year old child, seeing that dreadful world through his eyes and from his unique perspective – well, I really wouldn’t have believed you… a unique and unforgettable experience. (from my review of Not Thomas)

Jo Verity

Review of A Different River

From the moment Miriam stands by the toilet with a box in her hands, the author had hooked me… I loved the twists and turns of the story, Miriam’s unconventional decision on how to “escape”, her dealing with the various family issues, her relationships both romantic and otherwise – and the fact that what looks like the perfect outcome can still sometimes leave you with the feeling that maybe it isn’t enough. (From my review of A Different River)

Thorne Moore

Review of The Unravelling

Guest post on Shadows – slightly spooky?

Review of Shadows

Extract from Shadows

This was one of those stories with a bit of everything – strong and sympathetic characters, well drawn and sometimes complex emotions and relationships, real shocks and surprises, a real edge of darkness and evil, a wonderful sense of place with superb descriptions, a touch of romance, a cracking story. (From my review of Shadows)

Jessie Cahalin

Guest post – Back to the 70s, You Can’t Go It Alone

Review of You Can’t Go It Alone

The anchor for the characters’ stories is Delfryn itself – vividly drawn, described in the kind of detail that enable the reader to walk its paths and experience its beautiful scenery through the eyes of its characters through the changing seasons… the author has a real feeling for character and place, and it really shines through her work. (From my review of You Can’t Go It Alone)

Alison Layland

Review of Someone Else’s Conflict, with author interview

Far more than its parts, (this book) exposes the waste and futility of fighting for a cause, the tragic effects of a civil war that can’t be won… an excellent read, a real page turner that confounds your initial expectations. (From my review of Someone Else’s Conflict)

Susi Osborne

Introducing Susi Osborne, on publication day for Angelica Stone

Review of Angelica Stone

I’d read the description, and I was expecting “laughter and tears” – but this book was a dark and delicious surprise from beginning to end, and really not what I was expecting at all… refreshingly different, and so very well written. (From my review of Angelica Stone)

Review “The Price of Freedom” by Alex Domokos with Rita Y. Toews

15 Saturday Sep 2018

Posted by Christoph Fischer in Uncategorized

≈ 1 Comment

The Price of Freedom AudiobookMemoirs will always be a personal account of a life and therefor naturally miss out areas of lesser interest. That’s the author’s prerogative.
I missed more insights into the youth of the author, spent in WW2 Hungary. Later on there is far too much detail about his life in Communist Hungary, a truly terrible period in his life and so I can appreciate the unbalance. At the same time, I was beginning to skip forward suring that section,
I would have liked to learn more about the WW2 part and felt the general statements about how Hungarian knew little about what Hitler stood for difficult to comprehend, equally the passage about the homosexual communist party official, whose ‘perversions’ gave the author an advantage.
I found it hard to listen to a female voice narrating a man’s story in the first person, which kept me at a distance to the story often.
All that said, there are great passages and informative and thought-provoking snippets.

 

Blurb: Alexander Domokos wrote this memoir of his years during and after the Second World War with two purposes in mind. He wanted to allow his daughter a glimpse into his past and to enlighten others about the tragedy of his homeland, Hungary.

“I remember how impatient I was with my father when he tried to talk of his youth. I also swept aside my mother’s attempts to tell me of her tragic childhood. Many years after their deaths I was fortunate to read their letters and notes, only then realizing my irreplaceable loss: their view of the world at the turn of the century. Most of their experiences are lost to me forever. Often it is only after loss that we realize value. I would like to spare my daughter that irreplaceable loss.”

Domokos believes that Hungary’s sufferings were due in large part to the unjust peace settlements after the First World War.

“As Hungarians, we were driven into the arms of Hitler by the West’s indifference to our legitimate grievances….We had witnessed horrible atrocities committed by the Communists in 1919 after the First World War. Drifting into an alliance with Germany appeared at that time to be the lesser evil.”

Even after the Second World War, Hungary underwent more suffering.

“In 1945, while the West was basking in the glory of victory, our abandoned country began a new struggle for survival. My family’s hardship was not an exception but rather the norm in that forsaken part of Europe. For us, 1945 was not the end of the war but the beginning of a new kind of struggle.”

Even though the West was the victor in the Second World War, Dokomos is asking that the people of the West open their hearts and look more deeply into the effects of the war. He hopes to challenge the victor’s one-sided view in seeing themselves as the sole protector of righteousness.

Review: “The Perks of Being a Wallflower” by Stephen Chbosky

11 Tuesday Sep 2018

4327066“The Perks of Being a Wallflower” by Stephen Chbosky has been on my shelves for a long time, bought because of the cute title but it never seemed the right time to open it since then.
The premise of a coming-of-age story with a geeky boy who learns from some colourful other characters seemed just too worn and so I had admittedly not the greatest expectations.
On holiday I finally got to it and got sucked into it pretty quickly. While the book has indeed little to offer in terms of innovation, its characters carry it off easily long past the average marker on my scale. The author engaged me with his charming portrayal of Charlie and his conflicted love life, his love for literature and his oddball friends: teachers, gays, outcasts and even some regular ones.
The narrative voice is likeable immediately and even the fact that I waited for a long time to figure out where the book was going, it never occurred to me to put it down.
Warm , affecting and affectionate, quirky in right measures and thoughtful this has stayed with me for some time after. Just lovely.

In 2012 this was made into a movie with Chbosky as director.

Blurb: The critically acclaimed debut novel from Stephen Chbosky, Perks follows observant “wallflower” Charlie as he charts a course through the strange world between adolescence and adulthood. First dates, family drama, and new friends. Sex, drugs, and The Rocky Horror Picture Show. Devastating loss, young love, and life on the fringes. Caught between trying to live his life and trying to run from it, Charlie must learn to navigate those wild and poignant roller-coaster days known as growing up.

5 Questions Writers and Readers Should Be Asking About Brexit

10 Monday Sep 2018

Posted by Christoph Fischer in Uncategorized

What will we be reading after Brexit?
Most commentators are of the opinion that when things go badly economically, we tend to seek solace in fantasy. Also, misery memoirs went gangbusters in the last economic boom, so what does that tell you?

Tara Sparling writes

5 Questions Writers and Readers Should Be Asking About Brexit

It’s no secret around this parish that, despite occasionally unprofessional lefty leanings, I read the Financial Times. I have many, many reasons for doing this, none of them book-related, but given its business-oriented viewpoint, occasionally the FT will come up with a cracker of an article that neatly encapsulates the publishing industry in a fresh way.

A few weeks ago an article by Alex Clark called “How the financial crisis changed our reading habits” (behind paywall) did just that, asking the question: “beyond the business of making books what effect did the 2008 crash have on the books we actually read?”

The article then ran through a neat timeline of reading trends in the past decade, starting with the fantasy and modern takes on the quest story which dominated in 2009 from Stephenie Meyers, Dan Brown and Stieg Larsson.

Brown and Larsson could be said to have come from…

Latest reviews for my #cosymystery “Over my dead body: Murder at #Eurovision “

09 Sunday Sep 2018

5.0 out of 5 stars           *****

Bebe Bollinger is a terrific creation.

I just finished reading this in time for Eurovision this evening, and it’s certainly put me in the mood for it. Bebe Bollinger is a terrific creation…an adventuress, survivor, party diva and often-misled crime solver. Who could not identify with a lady of a certain age going at life – and Eurovision – with a verve and opportunism of someone half her age? And all fuelled by litres of the fizzy stuff… Divine, darlings, and cheers!

5.0 out of 5 stars        *****

A very enjoyable read

Singer BeBe Bollinger is back to work, professionally and in her new found talent—as amateur detective. And I’m delighted to see her back as I read through the pages of this entertaining story. The story begins with a singing contest and murder, with a billion people watching. It then moves to six weeks earlier with BeBe coming off a job from a cruise ship and having just bought an expensive sports car. We are introduced to the well-cast characters: Beth the not-so talented detective from an earlier crime that BeBe helped solve, Fred BeBe’s agent and lesbian Beth’s ex-lover, the daughter with few boundaries, Helena, and Tom a Danish friend from the cruise ship.
As the beginning scenes unfold, BeBe’s attention goes to Eurovision contest and the upcoming competition. When a mysterious “accident” occurs BeBe catches wind from Tom that it might be more devious than just an accidental mishap. When he convinces her to enter, she decides it would be a good opportunity to gain some attention with the press coverage already focusing on the event and to put her detective skills to use. It would be a good way to heighten her comeback. I love the set-up and want to know how the story will unfold, a sign of a well-crafted mystery novel. No spoilers here but suffice it to say that it’s well worth the read to follow the delightfully written twists and turns as BeBe does it again! It’s rare I leave a read smiling but that’s exactly what this character does to me. Grab a copy and enjoy.

Review of two books on #Eurovision: “Eurovision!” by Chris West and “The Good, The Bad and the Wurst” by Geoff Tibbals

09 Sunday Sep 2018

Posted by Christoph Fischer in Uncategorized

≈ 7 Comments

As my latest novel “Over My Dead Body” is set at Eurovision and I’m a fan of the show it comes as no surprise that I received the above mentioned books as present for my last birthday.

The Eurovision Song Contest” or short Eurovision is a European Musical Extravaganza established in 1956. It has cult status for some but in the western main stream has a reputation for cheesy pop music and outrageous staging and costumes. I’ve been a fan since the 1980s and harbour a love-hate relationship with it, too, due to the differing quality of the songs. In my latest book, former singing legend Bebe Bollinger, travels to the Contest of 2013 in Malmo to seek a career revival and solve a couple of mysterious incidents in the run up to the event.

Here are my reviews of the Eurovision books:

“The Good, The Bad and the Wurst” by Geoff Tibballs recalls the 100 craziest moments from the Eurovision Song Contest, and it’s pretty much that: 100 anecdotes in chronological order. To the person who follows Eurovision there’s little new: Alleged vote rigging, crazy costumes, drag queens and bearded ladies, the stories are told every year on TV when the contest is on and during every Euro-retro documentary.
The book follows the British TV / Terry Wogan tradition of making fun of the contest, and while I don’t take offence at the odd joke, it frequently crosses the line into cheap insult and sarcasm for the sake of it.
The shortness of the individual stories often leaves us wondering why they’re being told, as background information is rarely given to go beyond the slagging off purpose.
For those who miss Terry Wogan and the more acerbic tone of his last years of commentating for the BBC, this may well be fun to read, but it lacks accompanying images of frocks and props, so this will only work for those (like the author himself) who have seen the contests.
Admittedly witty in many places this is, to me, a wasted opportunity and an undignified bitchfest. Not recommended.

“Eurovision” by Chris West is a more politically flavoured book where the Eurovision Song Contest often drops into the background of the wider European Picture. The Song Contest was indeed born out of the European-spirited funding days of the EU and it’s predecessors and so telling the history of both EU and ESC in parallel has it’s legitimate reason.
Well researched in both, Eurovision and European history, this is actually really interesting (at least for the ESC fan). Seeing for example Yugoslavia’s participation in the wider political context or examining the discrepancy between popular music and those offered to the contest – there are many interesting questions asked.

 

 

Review of Helen Hollick’s “Pirates: Truth and Tales”

08 Saturday Sep 2018

Posted by Christoph Fischer in Uncategorized

≈ Leave a comment

“Pirates: Truth and Tales” by Helen Hollick is a marvellous book about Pirates. As historian and writer of many historical Pirate books Hollick knows her subject matter, and it shows.
The book starts with time tables and chapters on frequent mis-perceptions of Pirate Life, such as the romantisation of Pirates as adventurers rather than thieves and terrorists.
Hollick intersperses her chapters on all aspects of pirates with excerpts from her own novels, which illustrate her otherwise more factual writing.

From particular pirates, historical figures and events to pirate laws and habits, the author covers pretty much everything I could have thought of.

With its delightful blend of fiction and fact the book is as entertaining as it is informative.
Having attended some lectures on Pirates as part of a Literature festival and the Welsh Year of the Sea, I can commend Helen for her knowledge and as reader I must applsu her ability of concise and engaging writing. Hugely enjoyable. 

I was delighted to be hosting Helen for the launch of this book earlier this year and also on several other occasions on this blog. 

Pirates: Truth And Tales published in paperback in the UK July 2018 and November 2018 in the US.

The Luck of the Weissensteiners – the portrayal of life for “regular” people during the Nazi occupation

07 Friday Sep 2018

Posted by Christoph Fischer in Uncategorized

≈ 16 Comments

Books about life during the Third Reich used to be of 3 types: war stories, spy thrillers, or the tragic tales of the victims. In recent decades authors have begun tackling the portrayal of life for “regular” people during the Nazi occupation of most of Europe — They are now joined by
The Luck of the Weissensteiners, which takes place in Bratislava in Slovakia.
This fascinating book tells of the interwoven fates of two families. Greta, the daughter of the Jewish (but assimilated) Jonah Weissensteiner marries the gentile Wilhelm Winkelmeier and the couple begins their married life on the farm of Wilhelm’s stern relatives – Johanna and Benedikt. All of the characters are well-portrayed, but I found Johanna to be the most interesting, with her ever-shifting, ambiguous attitude toward the Jews in her life, paralleled by her capacity for both tremendous warmth and terrible coldness.


Though, as some reviewers have noted, the novel often drifts into history lesson mode, I was not bothered by that. Often when reading a historical novel I find myself distracted, wondering what was actually happening at the time, so I was pleased to have Mr. Fischer tell me.
