"En rik debutroman utöver det vanliga."Dagens NyheterEtt familjeepos från Kalevala till flyktingkrisUnder några dramatiska dygn sitter Elina Kansa instängd i en närbutik i Kemi, tillsammans med sin styvfar och en främling. Fred är berättelsen om Elinas familj, i tre generationer och två nationer, på bägge sidor om Östersjön, innanhavet med det bräckta vattnet. Här finns morfar Tapani, vars öde avgjordes av en mört i en sko och ett par små röda stövlar, här finns mamma Marjatta, som i jakten på lyckan flyttade till andra sidan Östersjön och tillbaka, och här finns dotterdottern Elina, som likt en Lapplands Sheherazade trollbinder sina nära med sin berättelse, alltmedan 2010-talets politiska kravaller utspelar sig utanför dörren och till slut drar dem alla med sig.Fred är ett ömsint familjeporträtt och en skildring av efterkrigstidens människor i Sverige och Finland – två länder som sagts stå varandra nära, som syskon. Det är också en berättelse om vad kriget gör med oss. Om vad freden gör med oss.

Fred Hoyle's Universe

Fred Hoyle was one of the most widely acclaimed and colourful scientists of the twentieth century, a down-to-earth Yorkshireman who combined a brilliant scientific mind with a relish for communication and controversy. Best known for his steady-state theory of cosmology, he described a universe with both an infinite past and an infinite future. He coined the phrase 'big bang' to describe the main competing theory, and sustained a long-running, sometimes ill-tempered, and typically public debate with his scientific rivals. He showed how the elements are formed by nuclear reactions inside stars, and explained how we are therefore all formed from stardust. He also claimed that diseases fall from the sky, attacked Darwinism, and branded the famous fossil of the feathered Archaeopteryx a fake. Throughout his career, Hoyle played a major role in the popularization of science. Through his radio broadcasts and his highly successful science fiction novels he became a household name, though his outspokenness and support for increasingly outlandish causes later in life at times antagonized the scientific community. Jane Gregory builds up a vivid picture of Hoyle's role in the ideas, the organization, and the popularization of astronomy in post-war Britain, and provides a fascinating examination of the relationship between a maverick scientist, the scientific establishment, and the public. Through the life of Hoyle, this book chronicles the triumphs, jealousies, rewards, and feuds of a rapidly developing scientific field, in a narrative animated by a cast of colourful astronomers, keeping secrets, losing their tempers, and building their careers here on Earth while contemplating the nature of the stars.

Famous American, chorus leader, showman, glee club pioneer, golf tournament host, and entrepreneur--all that, and he taught America how to sing! Fred Waring held together a major musical organization for sixty-seven years. He was a man at ease on stage but reluctant to sit through meetings, a man so earnest in his patriotism that by the 1980s, many considered him an anachronism. Virginia Waring, his wife of thirty years, chronicles Fred Waring's many achievements and his shortcomings with candor and affection. She traces his life from his childhood in Tyrone, Pennsylvania, through his rise to fame as a bandleader and his development and promotion of the Waring Blendor®. Along the wa,y she offers invaluable, intimate insights on his concert tours, radio and television programs, leadership of Shawnee Press, and his legacy of pursuing the highest possible standards in music as in life. The book includes a compact disc with twenty-eight selections recorded by Fred Waring and the Pennsylvanians over a forty-year period.

In the early 1970s, when he was still an aspiring, unpublished writer, Felice Picano began a remarkable relationship with an extraordinary animal: a days-old kitten slated for euthanasia who refused to perish. Rescued, named, and trained, Fred became an extraordinarily intelligent companion, ally, teacher, and constant wonder to the author as he began his ascent through the Bohemian circles of Greenwich Village, among musicians, actors, curious characters, and even the famous British actress in hiding right next door. But when an acquaintance brought his female cat to be serviced by Fred, an entire new set of experiences opened up for the cat - and for Picano, who'd never had the nerve to befriend her owner, his ideal man. The course of love seldom runs straight for cats or for men, and this time would (hilariously) prove no different. This is another of Picano's distinguished portraits of a vanished era, when a new gay domain was solidifying only a few years after the Stonewall Riots, and the still nascent gay literary world that Picano would help invent was just a conception. Fred in Love is a charming, nostalgic, funny, gossipy, involving, and ultimately enlightening story about how we learn and grow, and how we love - whether the object of our affection is a cat or another human being. It is sure to take its place next to Picano's now classic literary memoirs.
