Lucy Church Amiably was written in the summer of 1927. Lucey itself is a small village in central France, located over the hill from where Miss Stein was staying, and over another hill from where the distinguished French playwright Paul Claudel was staying, which explains the references to Claudel and to hills in the text. It seemed lyrical to Miss Stein to name her character Lucy Church for the church at Lucey. This is the source of many of her names and images - they are puns from French to English. Nothing much happens in the book. It would be impossible to prepare an outline of the plot (as opposed, say, to The Making of Americans). The action is purely interior: a great deal is noticed, digested, absorbed, compared. The result can be read simply as an account of being in the countryside, or more complexly, as an investigation into the interlocking nature of things and into the ways that language can be used for description.

"Fanny`s sister Adelaide, five years her junior, ranks among the finest of English-born opera singers. Making her debut in Venice in the exacting role of Norma - and singing nothing but a leading role thereafter - she won acclaim across Italy and at two brilliant seasons at London's Covent Garden before marrying the rich Edward Sartoris. The real love of her life, however, was Count Francis Thun, son of one of the great families of the Austrian Empire. Her love for Francis hovered over her marriage like a cloud." "Fanny never quite forgave Adelaide her success. As Fanny's own marriage disintegrated, her jealousy surged, and her biased appraisals of her sister's singing have unfairly tarnished Adelaide's opera reputation. In many ways, however, as Ms. Blainey shows, the sisters loved each other fiercely. Their complex and fascinating relationship is one of the major themes of this grand biography, based on extensive research and exclusive access to hundreds of family letters."--BOOK JACKET.

In het luisterboek Gesprek tussen de meeuw en de psychiater komen de kwaliteiten van dichteres Jannah Loontjens en musicus Sven Weyens prachtig samen. Loontjens leest voor en Weyens begeleidt haar gedichten met muziek. Het resultaat is een bijzonder luisterboek dat heel gevarieerd is: sommige luistergedichten hebben een dromerig filmisch karakter, andere neigen naar dance of er ontstaat een melancholische dialoog tussen stem en cello, gitaar, blokfluit of darboeka.

In this comparative study, Diment draws a comparison between two giants of Modernism and a relatively obscure 19th-century Russian Realist, claiming that the three writers all reinvented the idea of duality in literature.
