My next novel is The Bezzle, a high-tech ice-cold revenge thriller starring Marty Hench, a two-fisted forensic accountant, as he takes on the sleaziest scams of the first two decades of the 2000s, from hamburger-themed Ponzis to the unbelievably sleazy and evil prison-tech industry:

Aggiornamento e novità.
A più di un mese dal mio arrivo in Trinacria è ora di tirare una linea e fare i conti con il presente e con il futuro. Sono venuto qua innanzitutto per rilassarmi e cambiare aria, non mi sono rilassato per niente, anzi, direi che è stato stressante ma in maniera diversa dallo stress estone, i motivi li ho già scritti in alcuni post di questo periodo, la condizione di mia madre che vive da sola da anni e che ha tutta una serie di routine che a lei vanno bene, anche se non sono salutari, e che soprattutto non prevedono la presenza di altre persone, come quella di tenere la tv accesa a qualsiasi ora a un volume esorbitante, sia per il fatto che non ci sente tanto più bene sia perché al piano di sotto e al piano di sopra non c'è nessuno quindi non disturba. Questa cosa a me invece disturba tantissimo perché odio la tv e per il volume, visto che io ci sento fin troppo bene. Ero riuscito quasi a convincerla di evitare la notte anche perché non la fa dormire bene, ma è durato poco, molto poco. Altre piccolezze ma poco rilevanti del suo comportamento perché pazienza è molto anziana le posso anche capire, ma quella della tv no.
Poi c'è la città, Catania, che come sempre è bella ma trattata male ma quello che mi ha dato più noia è il comportamento delle persone, c'è anche la mia abitudine a vivere in un posto dove le persone sono così calme e ligie alle regole che qua sembra di vivere in un manicomio a cielo aperto, oltre al caos di automobili a qualsiasi ora, ai clacson che strombazzano quasi continuamente (sembra il Cairo) e a quella strafottenza catanese che c'è sempre stata ma che nel 2024 mi sembra eccessivamente da incivili. Poi la musica, quella è centellinata come a Tartu, poche esibizioni, spesso cover, ma la differenza è che la città è molto più grande quindi almeno uno o due a settimana ci sono, esempio, domani vado ad un concerto rock'a'billy, una vita che non ne vedo uno. Poi c'è il periodo che per me non è il massimo, quindi se miscelo tutto assieme ho la stessa sensazione che avevo nel 1998, cioè di andare via il prima possibile.
Allora vista la situazione e anche se occupatissima con questa Turandot, ho quasi obbligato la mia compagna a parlare, lo so che non è il massimo ma avevo bisogno di capire e di sapere, dato che sono andato via proprio per il suo comportamento e se qualcuno ha letto alcuni post precedenti la mia partenza parlavo addirittura di una separazione. In realtà siccome sia io che lei siamo cambiati in questo ultimo anno definitivamente in nuove persone non ci siamo ritrovati più, allora ho preso l'iniziativa di ripartire da zero con una nuova vita di coppia. Non è facile, lo so, ma è stata accettata e adesso siamo pronti, con la calma dovuta, a sperimentare questo nuovo futuro.
In parole povere ritorno in Estonia, Spock c'è restato un pò male, non tanto perché vado via, ma perché gli dicevo che volevo fare tante cose e che mi serviva tempo, ma francamente non me la sento di stare qua a queste condizioni da manicomio e poi ho una forte mancanza di lei, si si anche lei di me, non sono egoista.
Mi prendo questo fine settimana ancora e poi inizio ad organizzarmi per il rientro. Forse l'unica cosa che mi ha fatto bene è stato il sole e il mare e l'Etna, per il resto rimango dell'idea che è una follia vivere in una città che ha ancora una mentalità retrograde in molte cose.

HAUSER
"EMMANUEL"
El violonchelista aclamado en todo el mundo HAUSER lanza "Emmanuel," el segundo single de su esperadísimo álbum CLASSIC II, que sale a la venta el viernes 19 de abril.
Reserva el tema AQUÍ
Mira el vídeo de "Emmanuel" AQUÍ
"Emmanuel" transporta a los oyentes a un reino sereno y fascinante, invitando a los oyentes a recorrer su paisaje melódico en un viaje cargado de emociones. El videoclip, rodado en el tranquilo entorno de un bosque de la Croacia natal del artista, resume a la perfección ese espíritu. Escucha el tema aquí y mira el videoclip aquí.
Con más de 1.000 millones de streams de audio y 4.000 millones de visitas a vídeos, HAUSER sigue hipnotizando al público con su maestría artística y su inquebrantable pasión por la música. Su último álbum "Classic II", continuación del aclamado lanzamiento de 2020 "Classic", contiene 18 melodías inolvidables, con arreglos magistrales que realzan la expresividad del violonchelo. Grabado con la prestigiosa Orquesta Sinfónica de Londres bajo la dirección de Robert Ziegler, y con arreglos de Robin Smith, el álbum promete redefinir las obras maestras clásicas con nuevas y elegantes formas.
"Es imposible equivocarse dándole al violonchelo una melodía bella y cantarina", dice HAUSER sobre su nuevo álbum. "¡Siempre hay muchas posibilidades de que suene incluso mejor que el original!"
A principios de este año, HAUSER deleitó a sus fans con el lanzamiento del primer single, una interpretación profundamente evocadora de "Kiss the Rain" de Yiruma. El videoclip que lo acompaña, una obra maestra visual por derecho propio, ya está disponible. Escucha aquí y mira el videoclip.
Tras finalizar 2023 con el lanzamiento de su primer álbum navideño, HAUSER no da señales de bajar el ritmo en 2024, mientras se prepara para su primera gira en solitario por Estados Unidos esta primavera. La gira, que comenzará el 31 de mayo en el Hard Rock Live de Hollywood, Florida, incluye paradas en lugares emblemáticos como el Carnegie Hall de Nueva York, el Festival Ravinia de Chicago, el Ryman Auditorium de Nashville y el Orpheum Theatre de Los Ángeles. Las entradas para la gira estadounidense 2024 de HAUSER ya están disponibles en HAUSERofficial.com/event-directory.

Celebrate the importance of Mother Languages to promote unity in diversity and international understanding through multilingualism and multiculturalism.
THREADS IS A NEW PHYSICAL AND DIGITAL EXHIBITION OF MULTILINGUAL WRITING AND MATERIAL FROM UNESCO CITIES OF LITERATURE.
IMLD 2024: THREADS EXHIBITION
DATE: 12 February - 23 March 2024
TIME: 9:00 am to 8:00 pm
AGES: All ages welcome
PRICE: Free
VENUE: Manchester Central Library, St Peter's Square, Manchester, M2 5PD
THEME: Exhibition;Languages
ORGANISER: Manchester City of Literature.
Local Manchester writers Keisha Thompson and Hafsah Aneela Bashir have contributed new original work to the exhibition, which you can view in the Histories Hub in City Library at Manchester Central Library.
Manchester and the surrounding towns were long recognised as ‘Cottonopolis’ due to its huge contribution to the cotton industry through manufacture, warehouses and transportation. In this way, textiles and threads are deeply woven through our city’s history.
Cotton-spinning is part of Manchester’s heritage as the world’s first industrial city and as a result is inextricably linked through history to slavery, social reform and protest. Manchester City of Literature are exploring these threads and more through literature, as well as opening the discussion around the world, inviting UNESCO Cities of Literature to look at their own links to textiles and follow these threads as they are interwoven into cultural identities.
The exhibition features creative materials, textiles and writing from Odessa in Ukraine including camouflage nets of the Ukrainian defender created using a technique called “Kikimora”. Kikimora is also a character in Slavic fairy tales and can be good or evil depending on whom she is dealing with. To these nets creators tie in symbolic lines of poetry, woven hearts and ribbons.
Materials also featured in the exhibition include embroidered artwork from Sísí Ingólfsdóttir, a feminist artist in Reykjavik in Iceland, traditional dress from Granada in Spain, handkerchiefs with Frisian poetry woven through them which were used to wave to ships at a major event in Leeuwarden, the Netherlands. Writing and original artwork from Wroclaw in Poland, Tartu in Estonia and Melbourne in Australia will feature. Plus Exeter, Norwich and Nottingham in the UK, as well as Manchester have contributed to the exhibition.
The Threads exhibition takes place 12th February-23rd March to coincide with International Mother Language Day, an internationally recognised UNESCO designated day to celebrate the importance of Mother Languages to promote unity in diversity and international understanding through multilingualism and multiculturalism. Manchester City of Literature leads the, now 53, UNESCO Cities of Literature for International Mother Language Day in February each year, to mark the fact that around 200 languages are spoken in Manchester at any one time.
This exhibition is in partnership with Manchester’s DNA at the University of Manchester. With thanks to Manchester Histories for hosting the exhibition in their space.
