Edvard Munch (1863–1944) was twenty-eight when he embarked on a lifelong effort to paint his ‘soul’s diary’ – and began a perverse love affair with self-destruction. This intimate and moving life of the Norwegian artist explores his turbulent early years, his time as a recluse and his intense efforts to paint not what he saw, but what he experienced.

  • Round the World in Eighty Places
    Round The World In Eighty Places Compiled by J. L. Herrera Dedicated to: Jacquie and Arabella Brodrick Mother and Daughter Travellers … May and Clarke Gerber Mother and Son Travellers … And especially in Memory of Clarke who died 25 June 2010. And With Thanks to: Patrick and Nicci Herrera, Beth Bennett, Ken Herrera, Gail Vardy, Cheryl Perriman, and those kind people who donate interesting books to stalls and op-shops. Introduction After nine Writers’ Calendars, of sorts, I thought I would do a collection with a slight difference. These are little snippets from here and there around the world, mostly from places I haven’t been. I thought it would be a way to travel at virtually no cost to me and might bring me into contact with some fascinating places and, with luck, some equally fascinating moments in history. Some of the places, as you will discover, aren’t places to stay and drink the water but I did want a sense of variety. It is still a writers’ calendar but I have confined my chosen pieces from various writers to pieces which have a connection to PLACE … And I have usually given priority to writers whose writing imparts a strong sense of PLACE … They don’t really need any introducing so hop aboard the magic carpet —ooops! I think it could do with a quick vacuum— and enjoy the journey with me. J. L. Herrera Hobart 2016 My computer has played up endlessly with this file and despite my best efforts to get everything the way it was in the original there may still be infelicities.
