Born a bastard to a
teenage mother in the
slums of 1950s Dublin,
Martha has to be a
fighter from the very
start. As her mother
moves from man to man,
and more children follow,
they live hand-to-mouth
in squalid, clothed in
rags and forced to beg
for food. The author
tells the story of her
early life without an

Aged thirteen, Martha is
rescued by the courts
from the clutches of her
evil stepfather,
Jackser, and her
feckless mother, Sally.
After numerous arrests
for shoplifting, a judge
rules that she is to be
sent to a convent school
with the instruction that
she is to get an
education. Her initial
relief at escaping the
abuse and neglect she
suffered at home is,
however, short-lived,
as she soon realises that
there are many forms of
cruelty in this life. As
she says, 'You can have
a full belly, but your
heart can be very empty.'
Ostracised by the other
children for being a
'street kid' and put to
back-breaking work by the
nuns, she endures a
lonely existence, her
only joy coming from the
books she devours and her
mischievous sense of
humour. Desperate for
love and a little place
where she feels she
belongs, Martha retains
her compassion for others
despite all that she has
suffered and still
continues to hope for a
brighter future when she
will be free to make her
own way in life.

Thanks to Shakespeare,
the name Macbeth has
become a byword for
political ambition
realised by bloody
violence. Fiona Watson
has uncovered, buried
beneath the layers of
myth, a history that is
entirely different from,
but just as extraordinary
as, that recounted by
Shakespeare. As ruler of
Alba (Scotland) Macbeth
sat on one of the
longest-established
thrones in Western
Europe. It is true that
he killed Duncan, the
previous king, but this
was the normal, if
brutal, method of regime
change in Dark Age
Scotland. The reality is
that Macbeth quickly
established himself as an
effective and popular
ruler. As a Celtic
warrior-king, he was
responsible for the
maintenance of his
people's dominance of
northern Britain. A
friend to the Church and
valiant protector of his
people, the real Macbeth
epitomised the
contemporary model of
vigorous medieval
kingship. His fascinating
story, long overdue in
the telling, is done
full justice in Fiona
Watson's authoritative
and compelling narrative.

No comic explosion, but
not quite a dud, no
Wayne's World, but not
The Ladies Man either,
MacGruber does manage to
pull off the seemingly
impossible mission of
expanding a 90-second
one-joke Saturday Night
Live sketch into a
feature film. What's
next: "Toonces the Cat
Who Could Drive a Car"?
In those MacGruber
sketches, Will Forte's
mullet-manned hero "makes
life-saving inventions
out of household
materials" but always
gets sidetracked as the
bomb he's defusing ticks
down to its last 20
seconds. Blown up for the
big screen, MacGruber
finds a bigger payoff
whenever the film
sidetracks from the
standard-issue '80s
action movie plot, as
witness MacGruber's
deranged revenge
fantasies toward a driver
who hurled a drive-by
insult at his car.
MacGruber's secret weapon
is Val Kilmer as a
megalomaniacal villain
(his name, not
appropriate for a family
website, is a profanely
puerile running joke)
with a stolen Russian
nuclear warhead and a
grudge against MacGruber.
MacGruber's somewhat less
than A-team includes
Vicki St. Elmo (SNL MVP
Kristin Wiig), more into
her music than into
saving the world, and
straight arrow Lieutenant
Piper (Ryan Phillippe),
who begins to question
MacGruber's unorthodox
tactics (one involving a
diversionary stalk of
celery is just one of the
film's more jaw-dropping
gross-out gags).
MacGruber may not set the
world on fire, but the
insanely committed Forte,
like MacGruber, will do
anything, no matter how
obscene, to complete his
mission. Mission pretty
much accomplished,
particularly in a sex
scene that is the most
outrageous of its kind
since Team America: World
Police (albeit,
thankfully, not as
graphic).

Discover Sir Ranulph
Twistelton-Wykham-Fiennes's
personal expedition to
trace his extraordinary
family through history.
From Charlemagne -
himself a direct ancestor
of the author - to the
count who very nearly
persuaded William the
Conqueror to retreat at
Hastings, many members
of this unique clan have
lived close to the nerve
centre of the ruler of
their day. They number in
their ranks a murderer,
a wife poisoner, a
poacher, England's
greatest female traveller
of the 17th century, and
an extortionist Lord High
Treasurer, teen cousins
who eloped, a noble lord
hanged for manslaughter,
another hanged for
adultery with the King's
wife, and many who, as
admirals or
major-generals, won
famous battles. The
Fiennes behind Cromwell
provided the castle in
which the
Parliamentarians made
their first secret moves,
the same building in
which twenty-one
successive generations of
the family have lived for
600 unbroken years...
And that is just a
taster. Ranulph Fiennes
tells the story of his
unconventional,
exceptional family, and
reveals the ingredients
for the man described by
the Guinness Book of

Castigated for offending
against public decency,
Madame Bovary has rarely
failed to cause a storm.
For Flaubert's
contemporaries, the
fascination came from the
novelist's meticulous
account of provincial
matters. For the writer,
subject matter was
subordinate to his
anguished quest for
aesthetic perfection. For
his twentieth-century
successors the formal
experiments that underpin
Madame Bovary look
forward to the
innovations of
contemporary fiction.
Flaubert's protagonist in
particular has never
ceased to fascinate.
Romantic heroine or
middle-class neurotic,
flawed wife and mother or
passionate protester
against the conventions
of bourgeois society,
simultaneously the
subject of Flaubert's
admiration and the butt
of his irony - Emma
Bovary remains one of the
most enigmatic of
fictional creations.

Alan Rickman remains one
of the most beloved
actors of all time across
almost every genre, from
his breakout role as Die
Hard's villainous Hans
Gruber to his
heart-wrenching run as
Professor Severus Snape,
and beyond. His air of
dignity, his sonorous
voice and the knowing wit
he brought to each role
continue to captivate new
audiences today. But
Rickman's artistry wasn't
confined to just his
performances. Rickman's
writing details the
extraordinary and the
ordinary in a way that is
anecdotal, indiscreet,
witty, gossipy and
utterly candid. He takes
us behind the scenes on
films and plays ranging
from Sense & Sensibility,
the Harry Potter series,
Private Lives, My Name

more. The diaries run
from 1993 to his death in

into both a public and

professional actor, but

Here are 5 heartwarming
tales from Maeve Binchy
full of love, loss,
change and reflection
perfect for fans of great
fiction and a greater
author. Night of Rain and
Stars. In a Greek
taverna, high over the
small village of Aghia
Anna, four people meet
for the first time:
Fiona, an Irish nurse,
Thomas, a Californian
academic; Elsa, a German
television presenter; and
David a shy English boy.
Along with Andreas, the
old man who runs the
taverna, they become
close to each other after
witnessing a tragedy when
a pleasure steamer
catches fire in the
harbour. Whitehorn Woods.
The town of Rossmore is a
special place, full of
character charm. Nestled
beside the Whitethorn
Woods, the town has
grown since the days when
it was small and friendly
and everyone knew
everyone else; now it has
chain stories and traffic
problems and housing
estates. But still,
there are the woods,
full of spiky bushes and
criss-crossed with paths;
and there's St Ann's
Well, where generations
have come to pray or make
wishes or just to look
back at the pretty little
town. Which is why there
is going to be such a
fuss about the plans for
the new motorway. It's
going to by-pass
Rossmore, cutting
through Whitethorn Woods
and endangering the well
itself. The new road will
bring jobs and relieve
traffic in the town; for
others, it will destroy
businesses and leave the
town a backwater. The
people of Rossmore are
divided. There is a lot
of land standing in the
way of the great road of
progress. Quite by
accident the decision
rests on Neddy Nolan -
the most honest man in
Rossmore. A man
determined to do the
right thing. Evening
Class. The Italian
evening class at
Mountainview School is
like hundreds of others
starting up all over the
city. But this class has
its own special quality -
as the focus for the
varied hopes and dreams
of teacher and pupils
alike. Aidan Dunne needs
his new evening class
project to succeed almost
as much as his pupils do.
They too are looking for
something more: Bill to
find a way to keep
spendthrift Lizzie at his
side and Fran to make
sure that young Kathy
finds her way out from
behind the kitchen sink.
The key to their success
lies with the Signora.
Her passion has drawn her
from Ireland to Italy and
back home again with a
burning desire to share
her love of all things
Italian - and a secret
hidden in her heart.. .
This Year It Will Be
Different. There are
step-families grappling
with exes; long-married
couples faced with in-law
problems; a wandering
husband choosing between
the other woman and his
wife; a child caught up
in a grown-up
tug-of-war... The Return
Journey. A secretary's
silent passion for her
boss meets the acid test
on a business trip; a man
and a woman's mutual
disdain at first sight
shows how deceptive
appearances can be; an
insecure wife clings to
the illusion of order,
only to discover chaos at
the hands of a
house-sitter who opens
the wrong doors; a pair
of star-crossed
travellers pick up each
other's bags, and then
learn when you unlock a
stranger's suitcase, you
enter a stranger's life.

of building a new life
for herself and her baby

opportunity - at

confidence and prospects
beyond even her mother's

the son of an old

couldn't have been
happier. Until tragedy
strikes. A tragedy that
robs Helena of the only
family she has ever known
and everything she has
ever believed in; Helena
uncovers a bitter secret,
so explosive that her
