<![CDATA[Life in Austria seems to be competing with literature. Since late April, we 
have been learning with horror and fascination how Josef Fritzl lured his 
daughter Elisabeth into a carefully designed, soundproofed cellar (for which 
he had secured planning permission), kept her there for twenty&#45;four years, 
and sired seven children on her; of these, one died, three lived in the 
cellar, and three, still more incredibly, appear to have been deposited on 
the family&#8217;s doorstep in Amstetten and adopted by Fritzl and his wife as 
foundlings. This immediately recalls the case of Natascha Kampusch, who 
escaped two years ago from her eight&#45;year captivity in Vienna. But to anyone 
familiar with Austrian literature it also calls up a host of literary 
reminiscences.]]>

<![CDATA[Like Hardy&#8217;s Wessex or Faulkner&#8217;s Mississippi, the Western Australian 
landscape has been consecrated by Tim Winton&#8217;s fiction. He has been 
garlanded with literary awards and acclaim in his native Australia, and has 
been twice shortlisted for the Booker Prize. His work is preoccupied with 
wounded or troubled characters, often haunted by their past, who set out on 
actual or psychological journeys in search of purpose, meaning and 
redemption. Dirt Music (2002) depicts a vast, hostile outback in which the 
individual self is tiny and threatened. In Breath, the sea takes on a 
comparable role as an immense elemental force that simultaneously compels 
and controls the protagonists.]]>

<![CDATA[What do George W. Bush and Hillary Rodham Clinton have in common? Their higher 
education began with posture photos, in the nude or underclothes. Both will 
have been required on first arriving &#8211; the one at Yale, the other at 
Wellesley &#8211; to strip for three snaps: front, back and side views. It was 
standard practice in the East Coast colleges of their time, confirmed to me 
by three distinguished United States academic friends of the relevant age. 
Yes, they all had to submit.]]>
