  1. Wordplay and secret missions to Dublin at Strawdog

    Just as Irish novelist Flann O'Brien out-Joyced James Joyce with his mind-bending masterwork "At Swim-Two-Birds," Irish playwright Arthur Riordan takes the sort of too-true-to-be-real story that is catnip to Tom Stoppard and proceeds to fold, spindle, and verbally mutilate it into a high-spirited — if occasionally aggravating — pastiche in "Improbable Frequency," now in its local premiere with Strawdog Theatre Company.

  2. Community gathers at the Last Bookstore

    The staircase is narrow and creaky, with a bookshelf made from a 100-year-old harp case teetering on the precipice of collapse at the top of the landing. Overflowing with open books, pages wildly askew and dangling from uneven shelves, the bookcase looks as if it's escaped from a vintage cartoon.

  3. Review: Encounter with postwar giants at Southwest Chamber Music festival

    Southwest Chamber Music's 2013 L.A. International New Music Festival, in progress at the Colburn School's Zipper Concert Hall, is doing its attentive bit to broaden international musical relations. We hear too little music from Mexican, Korean or even Venezuelan composers. America and Germany lost its two greatest senior composers — Elliott Carter and Hans Werner Henze — late last year, but they have been long lost on the West Coast, where they remain ignored. Thankfully in such matters, Southwest can serve as an indispensable diplomat.

  4. On the Spot: Why seating on flights is up in the air

    Question: Can an airline bump passengers from previously purchased, extra-legroom seats? Last summer we checked in online for a United Airlines Boston-to-San Francisco flight and learned that we had been bumped back to regular coach from our previously purchased Economy Plus seats. We thought paying for the extra legroom seats essentially guaranteed us those seats. Could the fliers in "our" seats have had some frequent-flier elite status giving them priority?

  5. Jamaica Kincaid talks about 'See Now Then'

    On the surface of her first new novel in a decade, the vaguely autobiographical, startlingly ambitious "See Now Then," author Jamaica Kincaid seems to tell a simple story about a New England family that is falling apart. Mr. Sweet, a musician and composer, turns out to hate his wife, a writer known only as Mrs. Sweet, and their children, Persephone and Heracles. But just beneath the surface is a much larger, even cosmic meditation on the nature of time — as Mr. Sweet puts it, "the seeing of Now being Then and how Then becomes Now."

  10. Live video chat with Will Self on 'Umbrella' and more, Tue. Jan 15

    Novelist, journalist, sometime bad boy and frequent literary provocateur Will Self is hard to miss in England. He's 6-feet-5, for starters; what's more, he's terrifically prolific, publishing literary works of fiction and nonfiction almost every year. His latest is "Umbrella," a 397-page novel story told in a single stream-of-consciousness paragraph.

  12. Review: Richard Kraft photographs anonymous souls on London Tube

    His camera hidden beneath his coat, Walker Evans was, in his own words, a "penitent spy and ... apologetic voyeur" when making a series of portraits in the New York subway from 1938-41. Richard Kraft's new photographs at Charlie James were inspired by Evans' work and have a similar power, flirting at once with the psychological, the sociological and the philosophical.
