A wonderful eloquent and very honest talk. I only found this at the turn of the new year 2024/25 and the conversation seems more relevant today. Best reagards to all at Shakespeare and Company, which I last visited with my son some 9 years ago....

A truly brilliant book. Robinson fully convinced me of Maybrick’s being the Ripper, of him being a religious hyper-misogynist. I am a singer who received some opera training and grew up singing “The Holy City,” and now that song gives me goosebumps but certainly not for its beauty.

I share a blood relation with Michael Maybrick! The theory is very fine indeed! We are a very quite family, the genealogy of Michael is very obscure he, had 3 unnamed illegitimate children which I am a great descendant!! Time does pass , theory’s are just that theory! Eventually my family will release a statement. We are a bad bunch ! I suffer nightmares! We are cursed!

Why didnt the rest of the masonic system reach out to Maybrick and ask him to stop making a fool out of them, in this theory? Surely the ripper crimes were causing scotland yard and even the crown some distress. Why not silence the guy behind it? Or at least rein him in?

Living in abnormal conditions creates abnormal living conditions , social structure. People know of this but some one has to start the spark for understanding the cause lying at the root. It will not be easy . If you think it will be easy you do not even understand the cause , root cause of this disease. It is a disease . We all got sick. We as part of humanity must get control over this disease that turned us into orphans.

All the booze finally caught up with him, lol. I'm a first-generation Withnail & I fanatic, so it's sad to see him go all dotty in his old age, though it happens to the best of them, I guess. Still, it's as if Marwood wound up as some old man ranting about Freemasons and Jack the Ripper. Not the way I'd have pictured him turning out as he walked away from Withnail and towards his budding film career, eyes full of wonder and promise. File under: Downsides to Getting Sober.

My contribution: Thank you for the kind file. Mr. Whitman was in France, but Chirac was a mayor. Bernie Madoff lived close to Shakespeare and Co.'s East Side shop. Os Lusíadas is a well know book from Camões, but I tried to learn English since I was a child and listened Tom Jobim. I was supposed to be with Sting, but I helped Mr. Riv, who was a great musician of difficult temper. During Covid. my school chorus classmate celebrated the 1 yr. Samba Club she tried to put together in Germany. My contribution is the Happy Birthday file in my KZbin. Sting sang with Stevie Wonder and I had to drive to Liberty State Park during Covid to record it. Andrea Bocelli made a Concert at Liberty State Park years ago and Sinatra is NJ guy.

Best musician? I wont share, but listened Genesis. Kate Bush shared Wuthering Heights before John Lennon's tragedy. I heard them in my childhood. Amazon is holding some of my song playlist. I should get paid instead of the other way around because Sanchez dodged the picture scandal, while Hillary and Bill had to make sacrifices. I'm not speaking from a party preference because Al Gore was a good campaigning match.

The Years is one of the best autobiographies which run in parallel with collective memories, both historical but also capturing minute moments people are living through that are meaningful only to them, while history as a whole marches inexorably forward. What a fantastic book, and what a treat to have an interview with the author about it. The interpreter was incredible!

Self indulgent, pretentious , Leftist , miserablist hypicrite. Hated her parents as she looked down on their working class ways. Married an upper class French man (she enjoyed mixing in Bourgeois society) she then resented her husband. Tedious long trips to the USSR, Albania and Alkende's Chile ...romanticises Communist repressive regimes. This woman is a narcisstic, disgruntled depressive. No wonder Phillipe left her...the main was a Saint.
