Margareta Subers bortglömda men kolossalt intressanta lilla roman Charlie i nyutgåva med efterord av Mian Lodalen. Charlie kom ursprungligen ut 1932 och kallas den första svenska lesbiska romanen. Det är en tidig berättelse om het kärlek och samtidigt en förvånande modern roman. Berättelsen utspelas i den fina semesterorten där alla äter gott, badar, dansar och spelar tennis. Huvudperson är den unga vilda överklasstjejen Charlie som förälskar sig i den något äldre Sara som redan är stadgad tvåbarnsmor. Charlie är en pojkaktig flicka, kortklippt och slank, klädd i lätta, åtsmitande kläder. Hon kör en röd sportbil - en "trekvartsliters Midget" - och flänger omkring, är alltid på språng. När kärleken drabbar henne, drabbar den totalt. Författaren Margareta Suber hade tidigare i huvudsak arbetat som översättare och skrivit barnböcker och var tämligen okänd. Detta var hennes romandebut. Boken blev flitigt recenserad, trots romanens modesta paketering. Inget på omslaget skvallrade om innehållet. När den 1934 översattes var det engelska förlaget ett snäpp mer frimodigt och gav den titeln Two women. I sitt efterord berättar Mian Lodalen mer om turerna kring Charlie och om författaren: "Under andra världskriget var Margareta Suber motståndare till nazismen och i romanen Vänd ditt ansikte till mig som kom ut 1942 avhandlar hon följdriktigt antisemitism och nazism. På 50-talet verkade hon också som ordförande för svenska PEN-klubben, till försvar för det fria ordet. Men till samkönad kärlek återkom hon aldrig i sitt fortsatta och omfångsrika författarskap efter Charlie." Romanen har viss verklighetsbakgrund, något som författarens son långt senare redogjorde för i en tidning: "Det förhöll sig så att båda mina systrar och jag tillbringade en sommar i Hangös kontinentala badortsmiljö tillsammans med vår mor och där dök Charlie upp med sin charmfulla, varma pojkaktighet, sin röda sportbil, sin hundvalp och sin grammofon med de allra senaste schlagerna - hon blev naturligtvis dyrkad av oss barn." Margareta Subers roman Charlie. Efterord av Mian Lodalen. ISBN 978-91-7742-586-1. Högkvalitetspapper, sydda ark, mjuka pärmar med flikar, 176 sidor.

Featuring forewords from bandmates Mick Jagger and Keith Richards, this is the official and fully authorised biography of the world's most revered and celebrated drummer.
Featuring forewords from bandmates Mick Jagger and Keith Richards, this is the official and fully authorised biography of the world’s most revered and celebrated drummer. Mid-1962. The newly formed Rolling Stones are on the hunt for a permanent drummer. Their sights are set on Charlie Watts, a jazz musician already well-known within London’s rhythm and blues clubs. Fortunately for future Stones fans the world over, they persuade him to take on the job. Once installed at the drum seat, Charlie would not miss a beat for the rest of his life. He was there throughout the swinging sixties as the Stones reached superstardom and for the well-documented debauchery of the 1970s, typified by the iconic album Exile on Main St. Battling his own demons by the eighties, Charlie emerged unscathed, cementing his reputation as the thoughtful, cultured but no less compelling counterpoint to his more raucous bandmates. For almost 60 years – through all the band bust-ups, bereavements and changes in personnel both on stage and off – Charlie remained the rock at the heart of the Rolling Stones. At the same time, he was the antithesis of the rock-star archetype, an intensely private man who valued his family above all else. Drawing on new interviews with his family, friends and former bandmates – including Mick Jagger and Keith Richards – Charlie’s Good Tonight is the remarkable life story of Charlie Watts: official, authorised and as it’s never been told before.
