AustriaRegardsSteve-hamishGlobe-trottersLotsFirstPanoramic-viewElevatorBuildingEuropeFloorPotsdamThe day's biggest political and news stories, with interviews and reporting from around the nation.
the united nations taking on donald trump's attacks on the free press. the top story, the closing circle of pressure on trump from the manafort trial. michael avenatti has popped back up with a dvd, doing some breaking news of his own on who is in possession of it. >> do you have anything else you can tell me about this dvd? >> as soon as we get it back from law enforcement, i'll be happy to talk about it. >> that is new. the assertion that law enforcement are sufficiently interested in this dvd collected as evidence. we do not know, and this is important, if avenatti is alleging it's in the possession of federal law enforcement, which could mean mueller or cohen prosecutors in new york, or whether it is some other local case which could be far less important. meanwhile, the other news tonight is that mueller has completed interviews with another new roger stone associate, her name is kristin davis.
now, stone says tonight that she knows nothing about alleged russian collusion, wikileaks collaboration or any other impropriety alleged to the 2016 election. today also marks the end of the first week of the first case bob mueller has ever taken to trial, interesting when you think about it, mueller putting his first cooperating witness on the stand against paul manafort and the accountant who worked with manafort and now today provided more evidence of alleged fraud to this jury that will decide manafort's fate. prosecutors also say they're going to put their star witness on the stand who everyone has been gossiping about, manafort's former deputy, rick gates, the first time america will hear from my trump aide publicly implicating another trump aide. manafort's attorney is not only throwing the blame onto all of this, the right-hand man, they're trying to reverse what the culpability is and also say that paul manafort, who has sold his services to many people around the world as an expert,
The day's biggest political and news stories, with interviews and reporting from around the nation.
>> get a zoom in -- you're having a moment. you're holding the congressman's hand. >> congressman, you can move your hand anytime you want to. >> he won't. >> sometimes rudy giuliani muddies things up, whether that's in their interest or not, other times we see rudy trying to fix the problems his client creates. why is rudy so messy? he works for a really messy client. >> i think what rudy giuliani is trying to do is get in front of the american people with evidence he knows that's bad that's going to come out in ways. he executes in a very bad way and says things that are not true on national tv, ratchet that back, and his client undercuts him. he has the right idea. >> are we all falling for his trap? that's what he's doing, throwing sand. he's throwing up as much confusion, we're all talking about that rather than, you know, the important issues. >> well, i mean, he's really framing the midterm, the key
theme of this midterm is going to be it's going to be trump's interests, legal and financial, versus america's, and rudy giuliani and donald trump are saying choose my interests and not america's. >> congressman, i want to play a bit of a fact check we've put together that shows some of the people who have an oath to the constitution who serve our national security in their own way, somewhat measured and not enough according to what you and others have called for, in their own way putting out a flag that donald trump is hiding what happened in the putin meeting, which is suspicious, that he is wrong about denying russian attacks and saying they're an ongoing hoax given the intelligence and the midterms. i want your view of that and what's to be done about that since you're in a coequal branch of government. take a look? >> in hield sin key, i had a great meeting with putin. we got along really well. by the way, that's a good way. >> not in a position to either
understand fully or talk about what happened in helsinki. >> now, we're being hindered by the russian hoax. it's a hoax, okay. >> we acknowledge the threat. it is real, it is continuing, and we're doing everything we can. >> i'll tell you what, russia's very unhappy that trump won. that i can tell you. >> did you want president trump to win. >> yes, i did. >> yes, i did. of course the final answer from putin. those are a lot of facts that completely undercut the president's claims. >> i served on active duty, i never thought i would see the american commander in chief go onto foreign soil and throw america under the bus the way he did. not only did you have americans react, you had his own administration officials react. and you had dan coats, that same day, issue a press release that he didn't clear with the white house basically saying, yeah, the russians hacked us in 2016 and they're going to do this again. you see his own administration pushing back against the president. that's good for what i believe
is the america that i know, which is adhering to a law and making sure we stick with the facts. >> you put it starkly and mention your own service. to some degree is this a sort of reverse iraq war situation? where you had a political white house putting pressure on the cia to say the threat from abroad may have been worse than it was to get what they want? here as you just referred to, you have the people in intelligence saying there's a real threat, whether or not what we do about it, go to war or a cyberwar, but a very real threat that's been documented by all these intelligence agencies and the mueller indictments, and it's oddly the president and the white house putting pressure on them to pretend there isn't a problem, isn't a threat. >> that's a very good point. but i actually think really it is only donald trump that thinks there is no threat. everybody else around him thinks that he's talking crazy talk. which is why you have his own administrative officials to hold a press conference this week telling the american people, yes, there's a russian threat. we're trying to take care of it. our framers were smart, they
allowed us to have 50 states, republican or democratic secretary of state, you don't want your elections hacked. we have people working on this issue. >> you make an important point. federalism, how elections are run in this country. pros and cons to that. with regard to election security it's not all run out of the white house. this is one of those days, going to the midterms, that is one silver lining. congressman lieu, stephanie miller, jay, thanks to all of you. coming up, an interview with the man at the heart of democratic presidencies and campaigns for two decades, john podesta is here, i'm asking him about the supreme court and the midterms. signs of a new civil war inside the gop, donald trump against the richest donors around. sam nunberg is back. and a pulitzer prize winning journalist talks to us. eddie griffin joins us

former chair on trial. while podesta remains a victim in the related investigation into the russian hacking. that new association, though, only comes after many years where podesta was widely known in politics for being say center of every major battle. >> i am honored to name him today as the next white house chief of staff. >> working here means a great deal to me. >> to deal with the possible impeachment hearings in congress, the white house has put together a new crisis team led by deputy chief of staff john podesta. >> i've also asked my counselor, john podesta, to lead a comprehensive review of big data and privacy. my friend john podesta ran my transition. >> john podesta has just walked in the room. >> we're still counting votes, and every vote should count. >> today, podesta is part of a democratic vote counting operation for trump's supreme court pick, insisting his records from the white house are
a potential pandora's box. the hearing could come in september. democrats say it's past time to go on offense. first, let me welcome you, john, and say, you know, you look at the old footage, you're one of those people that looked older when you were young, and now you look a little young that you're older. i don't know how you did it. >> it's a fountain of youth, ari, and it's good to be with you. by the way, given that introduction, i have to say, i'd rather be in this seat than paul manafort's seat right now. >> that's true for most people. it's a testament to what everyone knows was an unusually harsh foreign attacked wild 2016 campaign. and you and him are in very different situations. i want to get to so many things including your view of the mueller probe where you figure into it. i want to begin with something you've been leading on and what democrats say is so important to the future of the nation and gets wiped away by trump drama. you say we don't know enough
about brett kavanaugh. walk us through why that matters and what democrats should do about it. >> look, ari, he served in the white house as staff secretary, the first position i served in for president clinton. todd stern, who succeeded me in that job, and i wrote an op-ed piece in the "washington post" this week, noting that the republicans are really trying to cover up his record there. they don't want to go to the archives, look what advice he gave president bush, calling him a traffic cop, a paper pusher, saying he didn't create his own documents. that's nonsense. the role of staff secretary is not well-known, but it's a very important policimaking job. he was promoted from senior associate white house counsel into that job. he carried the very top title, assistant to the president in the white house. he was clearly a key policy adviser, at a time that president bush was making important decisions around restricting abortion rights, trying to push for constitutional amendments to ban
gay marriage. he was there, being the last stop, really, on a series of signing statements that were very controversial, including on a bill that banned torture. he said that he was not involved in the legal advice that the administration had, the so-called bibey memo, but we can't know that unless we see those documents. as carl rove noted, everything that had to do with policy passed through his hands. it was very common to write cover memos to express your own views. and it's time, i think, that the democrats demand to see those records as republicans demanded to see kagan's records when she served in the clinton white house. that was appropriate then and it's appropriate now. >> yeah. and you mention at least three important issues there. i'll tick them off, torture, abortion and gay marriage. starting with torture and the bibey memo and the legal shi cannery that went on, your view
that he could have been a part of supporting that, and if he would support torture, what else would he support under trump? >> well, it is clear that trump signed legislation that banned torture. that was bipartisan legislation, but said in the signing statement that if he believed that legislation was unconstitutional, he wouldn't follow it. and mr. kavanaugh had the last stop on that signing statement, what his constitutional views were, that ought to be there. >> in that role you're saying your concern is he was the last legal line and he cracked the door open to more potential torture in the way he worked in the white house? is that what you're saying? >> unless you see those documents, you don't know the answer to that question. >> got it. >> that's why it's so important to be able to access those documents. we do know, though, ari, that
he's a -- he is a very strong proponent of strong executive power, and he's written and spoken extensively about both his experiences investigating a sitting president, that was president clinton, and then subs subsequently his change of heart about that and the notion that no sitting president should be forced to answer subpoenas. he's gone so far as to suggest that even the unanimous decision, u.s. v. nixon was wrongly decided. and so we know that after pursuing president clinton during the starr investigation. he had a change of heart once he went to work for president bush and subsequently. so i think those are -- >> let me ask you, is that the core, then, of where democrats are going with this, not that he is a traditional republican appointee that may do things
that shock many people, most women in america would be against overturning roe, but not so much only that, you and the democrats are basically saying this person was picked by trump to protect trump, that he is part of a softer type of obstruction? are you prepared to go that far? >> i think we have to -- you know, i think we have to examine his record and look at the context. president trump and mr. giuliani have said he's going to decide whether to force a subpoena for mr. mueller or whether he's going to voluntarily testify. that's a decision that could easily go to the supreme court. mr. kavanaugh expressed his views already on that subject matter and saying that the president shouldn't be forced to answer subpoenas. and so, you know, you never know what's in donald trump's mind. but you have to know that he knew that kavanaugh was someone who wanted to protect the president in a context he finds himself in. and think of the constitutional crisis we'd be in if he was the
deciding vote in a constitutional crisis where mr. mueller actually issued a subpoena and the white house and donald trump refused to comply with it. i think it is a context for this nomination. i'm not casting aspersions on the integrity of mr. kavanaugh. he has well expressed views here. the democrats need to examine what he intends to do if, you know, faced with that choice. >> right. i understand how precisely measured you're being while raising the fact that this is not a drill, we're dealing with a president who seems to delight in breaking things. and the question of whether mueller can put him in the grand jury box if he won't do the interview, unlike the clinton example where it was negotiated out, may go all the way to the supreme court. you're saying something that our viewers know is a very real possibility in the near term. speaking of the mueller probe, i want to get to that, play for
you donald trump who did promise to come out with all of this dirt on your side, and as with all things in politics, rough and dirty is fine. illegal or foreign is not. look at that moment. and then we'll ask you about it. >> okay. >> i am going to give a major speech on probably monday of next week. and we're going to be discussing all of the things that have taken place with the clintons. i think you're going to find it very informative, and very, very interesting. >> that was hours after donald trump jr. confirmed the trump tower meeting. the president's former lawyer michael cohen now says donald trump knew about it. can you shed any light on that based on what you experienced then being on the other side of it and what you've learned pursuant to the probe? because witnesses and victims are free to talk in public. do you think there is reason to credibly believe that donald trump was in on that from the beginning? and if so, is that an election conspiracy?
>> well, mr. trump says he wasn't, but he has no credibility because he lies all the time. mr. cohen says he knew about this meeting. clearly the meeting was set up with the promise of delivering dirt from the russians on secretary clinton. that's -- they encouraged it. they suggested the timing of it. mr. trump now says he didn't know about it. i don't -- you know, i think he has very limited credibility. the one thing we do know that as a result of the most recent mueller indictments of the russian actors who hacked the dnc, hacked my personal e-mail account, hack other individuals in the clinton campaign, was they got very active after mr. trump stood on the stage and said, please, you know, after they were accused and really known to be hacking the dnc, mr. trump stood on the stage and said please hack secretary
clinton's e-mails. people were aghast by that and suggested that that was, in fact, treasonous at the time. now we know that the russians were listening to him. >> they acted that night. >> they increased their activity that very night. and so -- >> on that point, is sir, when you were inside that campaign, did you think that as rhetoric, or think he's asking other people to commit crimes against us, what do we do about it? >> it was the latter. we kept trying to call out, and secretary clinton very early in the process during the -- really during the primaries suggested that mr. trump had definitely unusual views about the u.s./russian bilateral relationship and had adopted policies that were more in keeping with president putin's view than the bipartisan view here. but as time went on we kept
calling attention to the press. i think the press covered it to some extent, but didn't take it very seriously. we now know this was a serious incursion filled with criminal activity against our democracy. >> and on that, i'm over time. but you make one more -- >> you saw mr. trump last night still call it a hoax. >> one more point, brief piece on this, we don't want to exempt ourselves from the issues, the way that the press covered it then doesn't look good in the benefit of hindsight. was that largely because people didn't get the magnitude of what russia was doing or because there was a false sense that trump was going to lose anyway and a kind of antipathy towards clinton and that biased it? >> quite frankly, little bit of both, it's a complicated story, a harder story to tell, but it was a story that, in my view, was as important as the watergate burglary. this was an incursion, it was a
criminal -- as i said, criminal activities. i was the victim of one of those crimes and the press sort of thought it was an interesting political story. but didn't take it with the seriousness that certainly post-election, and now that we know what we know from the intelligence community sources, was, you know, a much more serious attack on our democracy. and, you know, look, that's -- that's spilt milk. right now what's important is to get all the facts out, to protect the mueller investigation, to make sure that, you know, i don't know what he's going to do ultimately with mr. trump or some of his associates. but he's clearly gotten guilty pleas from his national security adviser, from his deputy campaign manager, from senior officials in his campaign. we know that they had more than 80 meetings with russian sources that -- excuse me, they had more than 80 contacts with russian sources, more than 20 meetings with russian actors.
so i leave it up to mr. mueller. but i think that he's conducted this professionally, quietly, and we'll see where it lands. >> john podesta, you seem to know a lot because you've done a lot. i appreciate you coming on "the beat." i hope you'll come back. >> thanks, ari. be happy to. up ahead, sam nunberg is here live to talk about a big new fight over money and politics and trump. and that's when we're back in just 30 seconds. not so cute when they're angry. and we covered it. talk to farmers. we know a thing or two because we've seen a thing or two. ♪ we are farmers. bum-pa-dum, bum-bum-bum-bum ♪
the other top story tonight is one you may not have heard as much about, but boy does it matter. an unusual battle within conservative politics. the koch brothers have spent half a billion dollars since 2012, one of their aides clapping back at trump's divisiveness and lack of leadership, it's not just talk, the koch's breaking to boost with heidi camp in north dakota. a new video. >> we're seeing a rise in protectionism. they're doing whatever they can to close themselves off from the new. this is a natural tendency, but it's a destructive one. >> everything is personal with trump so he took this critique, which is basically about policy and his actual governance as some kind of breach of friendship and now he's calling them a joke. this feud started back during the campaign.
>> i was surprised because i thought i was friends with the koch brothers, i thought i was their friend. the reason they want to not have me get elected is that i know the game better than any of them know it. >> is it possible another clinton could be better than another republican next time around? >> it's possible, it's possible. >> it's possible. not something trump ever wanted to hear. on the left, democrats have long talked about the corosive influence of money in politics. the kochs have been the astro turf for their own economic goals. >> the tea party was essentially funded by the billionaire koch brothers family. >> what you see is the slow erosion of american democracy. these people are doing things, the koch brothers, they don't believe in democracy. they're a danger to america. >> i'm joined by the man you just heard, former vermont governor and dnc chair howard dean and sam nunberg, a senior
adviser to steve bannon, critical of the kochs. howard, you've been on this for a while. how do you view what's happening now, including that rare sliver where you and the kochs might overlap, because you also have supporting democrat senator hydecamp's reelection. >> i don't pay a lot of attention to the kochs. i really truly believe they do not care about democracy, nor do i believe the five supreme court justices who undermined citizens united care about democracy. our politics are corrupted by big money. i don't pay attention to what they're doing other than watch out because they do a lot of things that are not too honest. i'm certainly not going to take sides. i think heidi hydecamp has been a fantastic senator. i have no idea why the kochs are supporting her. >> well, sir, you've paid enough
attention to them to call them out. they're spending hundreds of millions. i take your point they're in the background. isn't part of the critique this is a problem in the background, and now it's interesting that they're trying to claim there's some third way or third lane in trump conservatism? >> there's nothing conservative about the kochs. what they do is what's good for the kochs, period, end of discussion. there's not much i can do to fight somebody who spends 80 ga zillion dollars on politics, except to publicly say they should be discredited, should not be taken seriously, have no fundamental interest in the future of our country swept as it applies to their wallets. >> sam? >> well, i agree with everything governor dean said, basically. if you look at this, the kochs are coming out against this president because they don't like his trade policies. that is the sole reason. and to go with exactly what governor dean said, saying that the kochs only care about their
bottom line and their pocket, can you ask -- i can't wonder what else they could have gotten from this president. they got a tax cut, which i can assure you, raised my taxes. they've gotten all these regulations cut. and because some of the profits go, because the president is trying to reset the trade balance, whether or not they agree with it or not which is why he was elected, they decide to come out and say we do not support this president, we're not going to support republicans in this midterm and vis-a-vis this hmidterm will control whether or not this president will be impeached. >> it's subpoena power. no one knows what the demes will do with subpoena power. >> it's going to control the house and control subpoena power and oversight. this white house will be greatly affected. the kochs will certainly not have the type of white house that would be able to function properly if they carried about libertarian values. with that said, this really
shows what people like steve bannon and others and trump was arguing. i can tell you this is what we talked about with trump, how the koch brothers won, were going to go against him, and number two, the base of the democrat party on the other side does not like this big money. the kochs are whining because they don't like the president's trade policies. >> let me go to you, sam, and then howard, there does seem to be overlap of agreement, and a lot of people would not expect that from both of you. what you're both getting at sd idea, we showed the videos, and they're welcome to come on "the beat" at any time, their argument is that they are ideological on the right and that's why they do things. viewers have heard governor dean and now you, sam, say that's not true. they are just a corporate entity that is just doing what's good for their bottom line. but that doesn't sound good in politics. so they've built a foe or fake
conservatism around that. a veritable candy shell when the real action is in the -- in the caramel center where all the money is being made. i know, sam, that that's the kind of analogy you and i can relate to because i know you like that green room candy i do. is that right? speak to that. >> when you showed their ad, their ad was concerned with one issue, the issue was protectionism. so when the president is in a trade war right now, and he is in a trade war, particularly with china, if you look at the koch supply line on energy, they can get hit on both sides, vis-a-vis the tariffs that china puts on and the tariffs the president is putting on chinese imports. it goes to big money and politics. what i would say is what have the kochs not gotten policywise from this president they could argue about? they're going to pretend as if
this is ideological. they're basically acting like gluttonous pigs. >> howard? >> you know, i think trump is wrong about protectionism. it's a mistake. it's going to catch up with us, it's going to eventually undo a great economic expansion we've had since 2009. so, you know, the merits of the argument may be with the kochs. the problem is, the kochs have no respect among people who think about the future of america at all. they've tried to buy their way in to respectability by know nating huge amounts of money to various causes, some of which are good. i happen to like the metropolitan museum of art in new york. they get a ton of money from the koch brothers. best thing, ignore the koch brothers, don't pay attention to what their motives are, do pay attention to the damage they're doing to the united states of america. we truly need -- one of the reasons i think brett kavanaugh is a terrible idea for justice
is we have got to undo citizens united. the only way to do that is the supreme court. kavanaugh will vote in the wrong way on that issue. >> ari -- >> i'm almost out of time. i wanted to get your reaction to your former mentor roger stone speaking out tonight. and one of his associates going into the mueller grand jury box. do you think that roger's playing this right? do you think he faces any vulnerability as a potential target here? >> well, look, as i've said, roger is a critical piece for mueller's narrative. this is my view to set up, let's say, the watergate narrative where you have all these associates making it look as if this break-in was involved or connected to the president. they're going into roger's personal finances. so when i think when roger is indicted, unfortunately i don't support it, you'll have some -- >> you expect him to be
indicted. >> yes, i do, and you're going to have some broad charge that he was part of a conspiracy to defraud america, then backed up with a bunch of financial charges. and this would not have happened but for this special counsel. i -- let's see what happens. with that said, i hope that andrew miller continues to fight the decision he got all the way up to the supreme court because it's a very important decision about whether or not the special counsel's office violates the appointments clause. i believe it does. >> sam nunberg and howard dean, a rare point of agreement. up ahead, a couple things, one, the u.n. condemning donald trump's approach to the free press. comedy legend eddie griffin is here with fallback friday along with joe mandy. tter, i go with anoro. ♪ go your own way copd tries to say, "go this way." i say, "i'll go my own way, with anoro." ♪ go your own way

done what. we spent two years doing the research reading and selecting works. some authors it was easier almost all the books of thomas mann or jenny ephron have been translated. with others only one. we had to find the english title so the research was the first challenge in that once we had decided which books to include on our list the next challenge was to compress say a one thousand page novel into two minutes. of time we knew to. actually have a few heated debates just because there was so much we wanted to tell about each book but we couldn't squeeze it all into two minute videos we did argue about how to deal with that fortunately we're still friends. we're pleased to hear that here and now to jenny backus one of the most versatile and most successful authors in germany. or visitation by its english title is your book on the list
a very slim volume that belies the enormous backstory as german history play such a huge role and it's illuminated through the story of a house and a property and as a german writer is that a given. is there any way to get around dealing with germany's. historical legacy gunjan it home to me in my case isn't it certainly looks like there isn't for others maybe it wasn't my original intention to tell stories about the twentieth century. i only started out with private stories and ended up with history. and. journey back was born to be a writer her father and grandfather were famous authors but at university she study theatre and directing before publishing your first novel in one thousand nine
hundred nine. the old child describes a young girl's a scrape from the world of adult responsibility an allegory of life east germany. blends politics into the lives of our characters her latest novel nominated for the german book prize tells a story of migration and everyday life in germany. and i'm dynastic and on a thursday at the end of august a group of ten black men gathered outside the berlin city hall building. they decided to stage a hunger strike three days later they stopped taking liquids. up and bert fields her work with contemporary history and searches for personal solutions to the major political issues over time. if you find them and how did people react when they suddenly have to redefine their identity because their lies have changed drastically. the writer explores similar themes of contemporary german society in
a twenty turn novel visitation which is on her list. it's also a very private story being told with your own family history woven in writing. yes. well yes we also lost a property to its former owner after the berlin wall came. i'm down. when that happened to many people that do this by including my own family from you know so i was familiar with that one example. but i tried to get away from my own story somebody who is a bit like me does appear but only in the last chapter there are eleven other stories about people who wanted to stay in their homes or couldn't stand each under very different circumstances at various points throughout the century for me it was good to find my place among these different stories some of which seemed much more serious than my own fears. come it's my night.
and. it's so quiet here in the german countryside now. every corner of this country even cute little lake houses have seen some of the darkest chapters of history especially in the last century journey out in bags book visitation is inspired by her grandmother's lake house and its many different owners who displaced each other. a jewish family forced to flee before the nazis murdered their relatives and architect his wife as a raped by a red army soldier and a cause that he's built for her later runs away from the east german communists a pair of writers returning from soviet exile you've heard the expression there's
no place like home but what happens when there's no where you belong. when you've arrived can you still be said to be fleeing and when you're fleeing can you ever arrive. and visitation the characters fates are all tied together by the brutality of the twentieth century whether or not they realize it it's a quiet little place in germany it's not so very quiet history. before you surprised that this book was chosen for the list. mutiny because it does not necessarily i was pleased to be on the list but which book i like in particular i think my favorite is visitation the obvious ones are it's close to my heart but what should i say it's like with parents they love all their children when they leave it is when you feel asleep it's definitely close to your heart that's clear
these days he once said it's very important for you to make the forgotten and the foreign audible visible and readable what does that mean exactly he isn't the most high stuff going to. be for what i try to do is see what is beyond my own horizon and think my way into the stories in the minds of other people as we can be as i said this book has twelve chapters and only one of them takes place in my own head . so. in the other eleven i try to see things through the eyes of people who are very far away. and even very alien to me at least at the start with regard to this one house. question what belongs to you what is my property. and what does it mean to leave a place you love. there are very different ways to love a place and to think about the idea of home and. i'm always interested in viewing
the world through other people's eyes only have two of my own but this is certainly deftly done in visitation thanks jenny i think that. the holocaust was a two events in the last century that in some way affected nearly every family history here in germany and also in most of europe. do they cast their shadows in the other books on the list or even through all of modern german literature. does begin to. invade started well before the second world war with the nazis seizing power. published the opera months as early as one nine hundred thirty three the very year they took over. there he was a visionary he saw what was going to happen including the concentration camps and the war. in crete when. there is a number of such oppression novels. and then there are the great works from after
the war that deal with. and then came the next generation of each with news stories as in europe all. of the children followed by the grandchildren all writing about the second world war and the holocaust. a recent example is. a writer from ukraine who lives in berlin she wrote about the fate of her family. when you go from so i don't think it will ever end. can writers accurately reflect the horrific events of the holocaust some writers have been able to describe the mass murder of european jews and at the same time create outstanding literature. maybe esther by catch up a trust begins with a family secret that is too awful to talk about. it involves a journey through eastern europe and
a search for clues to the fate of the jewish family. i no longer understood how i ever could have imagined that i had been spared somehow i knew my polish relatives had all perished siblings his mother's sigmund hilla their family how else could this event did but i had never thought about them. there was aunt lida those recipes for delicious sweet sausages died with her. and grandmother or publish them rosa who had great legs and love to dance to charleston and the great grandmother who was executed by german troops in one nine hundred forty one her name was esther maybe. writes in german although her native language is ukrainian this linguistic diversity allows her to describe her characters with a certain detachment feel life maybe esther is a very sad story but it's not melancholy it's an unusual account of the holocaust
the family of cutoffs and the people who come alive again in this novel with a new band this one. w.g. sebald novel house till its is also filled with uncertainty travel and a search for clues but this is not an autobiography it is a semi fictional account of the jewish historian jacques austerlitz who is trying to recall memories that he has long since lost. one day at a train station also the. sees a young boy who he realizes is his four year old self being sent by kindertransport to england this vision finally inspires him to go searching for his original family . house to let's us life was saved by a train later his mother was deported to auschwitz by train train stations play a key role in this novel ouster let's as a man who has a child lost his homeland language and even his name. chances are you've seen
heard and read lots of stories about world war two and the holocaust but you haven't read one like alstom let's. hear it becker was one of the first authors to inject a bit of humor and to an otherwise tragic holocaust novel called the liar it was published in one nine hundred sixty nine the work is set in a polish get over similar to the one that the author himself grew up in. most of the bottle is fictional. married to new. york owns a cafe and distributes to his customers fake radio news reports that the ghetto will soon be liberated. already and when i try to make use of the very last possibility that keeps them from just lying down and dying with words do you understand that i try to do that with words because that's all i have and then you come and tell me it's prohibited you know exactly this is a boy. the novel is realistic in its portrayal of life in the ghetto but it also
expresses a sense of human warmth and hope. and no wonderful book that will stay with you. maybe visit sites on a certain time in a certain distance to the events was needed to actually grapple with these chapters of history david you brought something of an outsider perspective to this project tell us your thoughts you know am i. the outside perspective because i'm from the us and the english language videos for this project. it was basically we decided to focus on the twentieth and twenty first centuries and a lot of people were quite horrified that we were left out of the list. fortunately no one is b.m.s. out yet or sense any threats but i expect a vital system that i don't have anyway we decided to concentrate on more modern literature because we want people who read these books to come away with
a different view of germany and europe our list starts in nineteen zero one with the boarding books by thomas mann and ends with philip think last twenty sixteen novel. if i can how could reading these books change the reader's view of germany or even of europe. and yemen that he's going to get these books provided deep insights into history. but first and foremost they give us insights into humanity and i recommend that best self esteem readers will better understand who the people of central europe are what's their mentality what was their mentality in the past to get to particularly people who shaped history because people know how zico you were born and he's berlin then the former east germany is a big topic in your novels do you think we'll see a similar phenomenon they are not that as the years go by writers will be able to take a more differentiated view on the country's communist past that make good saves some friends of mine say all my books are really about the old east germany i didn't go
for a very long time i never wanted to write about it. and i find it hard to do and also very hard to talk about. does all of this but i'm just now starting to publish texts i have written about that period. i might even write something new about it. does if i don't know all of us i'm going to there we go it's very odd to experience emotions that are hard to explain in rational terms as if you had. the money. sometimes twenty or thirty years to understand or depict certain things. there are so many preconceptions about east germany this is there's no style just for the good old days there but also blanket condemnation of the lawless dictatorship minds are made up of i should try to tell
a different story you'll encounter a lot of resistance. also dust and. thanks for that david you come from the us as we've said which german authors on the list are people in the states familiar with. them and most nastily news i had first of all in the english speaking world there's just not that much for militarily with literature written in other languages there's some room for improvement there a few people will know some titles for instance all quiet on the western front. even people who don't know the book will know the title because it's become an expression in english meaning everything is calm nothing new to report is just noise other scoot then there are books on the list that have been turned into movies like jacob the wire by you like becker or potential costs. people may know the movie is better than the books. and there's another category of
. authors that people have read schoolies you have him on how much has fans kafka but people may have forgotten that those authors actually wrote their books in german. even though has is a nobel prize winner yeah right but things aren't even that different here in germany ok maybe a little bit different but i bet if we asked people on the street here they wouldn't necessarily know even all the nobel prize winners on our list if you know how many nobel prize winners are actually on the list sabina for him and we're not good so we just checked there are seven on the list who are for. in german speaking countries which often home. even could we didn't use that as a criterion for selecting a book. having a nobel prize was not relevant so also if you show up and have to listen to though of course books by prize winners do tend to be better known. therefore they're more likely to get translated to these abuses the same with other prizes.
clearly the giants of german literature cannot simply be ignored and many are included on our list our compilation features seven authors who have won the nobel prize for literature their works are set against some of the great historical events of the nineteenth and twentieth century. in one such novel we have a prosperous german port city. a society in turmoil and a prominent family of merchants. these are the cornerstones into last month's family saga wooden blocks in fact it reflects munns own upbringing he was born into a middle class family in lubec eight hundred seventy five his father was a green merchant man brought about the life and times that he knew well. society was in the grip of a recession the lives of the middle class were being turned upside down months boudin brooks charts the rise and fall of the merchant family between decadence and
rash consumerism. months novel was published in one thousand one and is considered one of the earliest examples of modern fiction it was awarded the nobel prize for literature in one thousand twenty nine. thomas might almost none who also wrote many other novels is one of our most important writers his publisher wanted to cut that novel in half luckily month didn't let him. another example is going to cost his famous novel the tin drum told from a child's point of view i not. national socialism and world war two class portrays the german people as a nation of nazi sympathizers who refuse to grow up. the film version of this work drives home this point with vivid images and. this book from one nine hundred fifty nine was the first major novel to deal with
germany's nazi past. but people used to think that evil spirits suddenly appeared somehow suggest the german people as that's not how it was it all took place in broad daylight slaughters on his part. was just six when the nazis came to power near the end of the war he served briefly in the vatican s.s. was finally admitted this in two thousand and six. writing has always been a way to deal with the past when goss published the term drum it caused a scandal no one had written about world war two with such crassness such brutality and such. a towering figure in german literature and an eloquent spokesman on the darker chapters of recent german history gus was awarded the nobel prize for literature in one thousand nine hundred nine. the life of another nobel laureate how to milla was also shaped by totalitarian

the is a journey back what's it like for you to figure on this list next to such literary greats like thomas mann and going to a gas you know it's a newsman at least it's a good feeling of course i certainly won't complain about making the list. right after i saw it i asked myself oh my goodness how many of these books have i actually read and actually have certainly not all one hundred it's more like about thirty. you do have to write after all exactly now i have to do is read the other seventy actually sixty nine since i wrote one of them i mean i guess we all have quite a bit of reading to do i really should read them. there are a lot of other books on the list that i've been meaning to read so there are some really good writers on that list but there are also some others that are missing. with those me as far as new literature is concerned i would definitely say english
choices and fighter campaspe i would put kemp ascii right up there with c. boy and your own son in the combination of those three you're able to interpret their work differently so in that context is definitely worth another look as a reader ask which books you'd have thrown off the list maybe we better not. and that was art's twenty one from the frankfurt book fair our talk on one hundred german must reads will continue next week with part too. and we ask writers also do light and funny. of course we'll show you great literature which was adapted for film edition new. to. berlin on the silver screen. he comments on the legal. and we visit. the bestselling german author who lives in california.

first time at the frankfurt book fair twenty eight. hundred one hundred german muster reads with karen helm stet. has been having him start my name is karen helms ted and it's a great pleasure to introduce our multimedia project to the show one hundred german must reads in english here at the frankfurt book fair and yes one of them and now would like to know more about this project. please allow me to introduce my guests first off the project leaders here to my left are g.w. literature experts sabina keyes about and david eleven. point zero and we're particularly thrilled to welcome jenny aplin back award winning author and director and one of the authors on our list so congratulations are in order and a warm welcome and.
you know it starts of you know i'll start with you tell us what were the biggest challenges you encountered with this project and how long did it take you know what as it is. we spent two years doing the research reading and selecting works. with some authors it was easier almost all the books of thomas mann. has been translated in winds with others only one. we had to find the english title so the research was the first challenge in that once we had decided which books to include on our list the next challenge was to compress say a one thousand page novel into two minutes might suffice i mean you. actually have a few humans a basis just because there is so much we wanted to tell about each book but we couldn't squeeze it all into two minute videos we did argue about how to deal with that fortunately we're still friends. we're pleased to hear that here and now jenny backus. one of the most versatile and most successful authors in germany. or
visitation by its english title is your book on the list a very slim volume that belies the enormous backstory as german history play such a huge role and it illuminated through the story of a house and a property. as a german writer is that a given. is there any way to get around dealing with germany's historical legacy that home for me in my case is that it certainly looks like there isn't for others maybe it wasn't my original intention to tell stories about the twentieth century. i only started out with private stories and ended up with history in the. journey back was born to be a writer her father and grandfather were famous authors but at university she study
theatre and directing before publishing your first novel in one thousand nine hundred nine. the old child describes a young girl's a scrape from the world of responsibility an allegory of life east germany. blends politics into the lives of our characters her latest novel nominated for the german book prize tells a story of migration and everyday life in germany. and i'm dynastic and on a thursday at the end of august a group of ten black men gathered outside the berlin city hall building. i thought this very day i decided to stage a hunger strike three days later they stopped taking liquids. up and bert fields her work with contemporary history and searches for personal solutions to the major political issues over time. if you find them and how did people react when they suddenly have to redefine. in their identity because their lies have changed
drastically. the writer explores similar themes of contemporary german society in her twenty ten novel visitation which is on her list this is a it's also a very private story being told as with your own family history woven in isn't that right. yeah. we're going to be well yes we also lost a property to its former owner after the berlin wall came down more fire. that happened to many people who do this by including my own family from you know so i was familiar with that one example. but i tried to get away from my own story somebody who is a bit like me does appear but only in the last chapter there are eleven other stories about people who wanted to stay in their homes but couldn't stand each under very different circumstances at various points throughout the century for me it was good to find my place among these different stories some of which seemed
much more serious than my own a few. new milf will come it's my night. and. it's so quiet here in the german countryside now. every corner of this country even cute little lake houses have seen some of the darkest chapters of history especially in the last century. visitation is inspired by her grandmother's lighthouse and its many different owners who displaced each other. a jewish family forced to flee before the nazis murdered their relatives and architect his wife as a raped by a red army soldier in a cause that he's built for her your waiter runs away from the east german
communists a pair of writers returning from soviet exile. you've heard the expression there's no place like home but what happens when there's no where you belong. when you've arrived can you still be said to be fleeing and when you're fleeing can you ever arrive. in visitation the character's fates are all tied together by the brutality of the twentieth century whether or not they realize it it's a quiet little place and germany is not so very quiet history. before you surprised that this book was chosen for the list. needed me because it does not necessarily i was pleased to be on the list much but which book i like in particular i think my favorite is visitation sometimes art it's close to my heart
but what should i say it's like with parents they love all their children. it's only if you're asleep its definitely close to your heart that's clear you once said it's very important for you to make the forgotten and the foreign audible visible and readable what does that mean exactly please read my stuff going to. be physically what i try to do is see what is beyond my own horizon and think my way into the stories in the minds of other people just as we can be as i said this book has twelve chapters and only one of them takes place in my own head. so. in the other eleven i try to see things through the eyes of people who are very far away. and even very alien to me at least at the start with regard to this one house all of these are. questions what belongs to you what is my property. and
what does it mean to leave a place you love. very different ways to love a place and to think about the idea of home. i'm always interested in viewing the world through other people's eyes only have two of my own but this is. certainly deftly done in visitation thanks. to in the holocaust the two events in the last century that in some way affected nearly every family history here in germany and also in most of europe. do they cast their shadows in the other books on the list or even through all of modern german literature. does begin to. invade started well before the second world war with the nazis seizing power. published the opera months as early as one nine hundred thirty three the very year they took over a guy from there he was a visionary he saw what was going to happen including the concentration camps and
the war. there is a number of such question novels. and then there are the great works from after the war that deal with. and then came the next generation each with news stories as in your. out of the children followed by the grandchildren all writing about the second world war and the holocaust. as a recent example as. a writer from ukraine who lives in berlin she wrote about the fate of her family. i don't think it will ever end. can writers accurately reflect the horrific events of the holocaust some writers have been able to describe the mass murder of european jews and at the same time create outstanding literature. maybe esther by a touchup
a trial begins with a family secret that is too awful to talk about. it involves a journey through eastern europe and a search for clues to the fate of a jewish family. the first time i no longer understood how i ever could have imagined that i had been spared somehow i knew my polish relatives had all perished siblings his mother's zygmunt haleigh their family how else could this event did what i had never thought about them. there was an athlete those recipes for delicious sweet sausages died with her. and grandmother or publish them rosa who had great legs and love to dance to charleston and the great grandmother who was executed by german troops in one nine hundred forty one her name was esther maybe. writes in german although her native language is ukrainian this linguistic diversity allows her to describe her characters with
a certain detachment from life maybe esther is a very sad story but it's not melancholy it's an unusual account of the holocaust the family of cutoffs and the people who come alive again in this novel with a new band this one. novel austell it says also filled with uncertainty travel and a search for clues but this is not an autobiography it is a semi fictional account of the jewish historian jacques austerlitz who is trying to recall memories that he has long since lost. one day at a train station also to. sees a young boy who he realizes is his four year old self being sent by kindertransport to england this vision finally inspires him to go searching for his original family . his life was saved by a train later his mother was deported to auschwitz by train train stations play
a key role in this novel ouster let's as a man who has a child lost his homeland language and even his name. chances are you've seen heard and read lots of stories about world war two and the holocaust but you haven't read one like alstom let's. hear it becker was one of the first authors to inject a bit of humor into an otherwise tragic holocaust novel called the liar it was published in one nine hundred sixty nine the work is set in a polish ghetto similar to the one that the author himself grew up in most of the novel is fictional. noir to the. bones a cafe and distributes to his customers fake radio news reports to to getto will soon be liberated. on veni and when i try to make use of the very last possibility that keeps them from just lying down and dying with words do you understand what i try to do that with words because that's all i have and then you come and tell me
it's prohibited you know exactly is this full bore. the novel is realistic in its portrayal of life in the ghetto but it also expresses a sense of human warmth and hope. and no wonderful book that will stay with you. and if you visit sites so a certain time in a certain distance to the events was needed to actually grappled with these chapters of history david you brought something of an outsider perspective to this project tell us your thoughts you know. the outside perspective because i'm from the us and the english language videos for this project. basically we decided to focus on the twentieth and twenty first centuries and a lot of people were quite horrified that we left out of the list. fortunately no one is b.m.'s out yet or sense any threats but i expect
a vital system that i don't have anyway we decided to concentrate on more modern literature because we want people who read these books to come away with a different view of germany and europe our list starts in one thousand or one with the boarding books by thomas mann and ends with philip think less twenty sixteen novel. the second how could reading these books change the reader's view of germany or even of europe. and yemen that. these books provide a deep insights into history. but first and foremost they give us insights into humanity or. readers will better understand who the people of central europe are what's their mentality what was their mentality in the past to get to particularly people who shaped history because we've in how. you were born and he's berlin then the former east germany is a big topic in your novels do you think we'll see a similar phenomenon they are not that is the years go by writers will be able to take a more differentiated view on the country's communist past. good saves some friends
of mine say all my books are really about the old east germany i didn't go for a very long time i never wanted to write about it. and i find it hard to do and also very hard to talk about. this of this but i'm just now starting to publish texts i have written about that period. i might even write something new about it all the city of india. doesn't fit on the home of us i'm better there were it's very odd to experience emotions that are hard to explain in rational terms is a lot. the money. sometimes twenty or thirty years to understand or depict certain things this is. there are so many preconceptions about east germany this is there isn't a style just for the good old days there but also blanket condemnation of the
lawless dictatorship minds are made up of i should try to tell a different story you'll encounter a lot of resistance. also if you don't stand down too soon thanks for that david you come from the us as we've said which german authors on the list are people in the states familiar with. them and listening afternoons are the first of all in the english speaking world there's just not that much for militarily with literature written in other languages there's some room for improvement there. people will know some titles for instance all quiet on the western front amok. even people who don't know the book will know the title because it's become an expression in english meaning everything's calm nothing new to report. to scoot then there are books on the list that have been turned into movies for months like jacob the liar by you like becker or potential costs. people may
know the movie is better than the books. and there's another category of the authors that people have read schoolies you have him on how much has a franz kafka but people may have forgotten that those authors actually wrote their books in german as this even though has is a nobel prize winner yeah right but things aren't even that different here in germany ok maybe a little bit different but i bet if we asked people on the street here they wouldn't necessarily know even all the nobel prize winners on our list you feel you know how many nobel prize winners are actually on the list sabina for him and why not get so we just checked there are seven on the list who are for. german speaking country has been home i'm given credit we didn't use that as a criterion for selecting a book. having a nobel prize was not relevant. to really since you know of course books by prize winners do tend to be better known and therefore they're more likely to get
translated as it is of you know the same with other prizes. clearly the giants of german literature cannot simply be ignored and many are included on our list our compilation features seven authors who have won the nobel prize for literature their works are set against some of the great historical events of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. in one such novel we have a prosperous german port city. a society in turmoil and a prominent family of merchants. these are the cornerstones in thomas months family saga britain brooks in fact it reflects munns own upbringing he was born into a middle class family in lubec in eight hundred seventy five his father was a grain merchant monday wrote about the life and times that he knew well. society was in the grip of a recession the lives of the middle class were being turned upside down months good
and broke charts the rise and fall of the merchant family between decadence and rash consumerism. months novel was published in one thousand one and is considered one of the earliest examples of modern fiction it was awarded the nobel prize for literature in one thousand nine hundred nine. almost none who also wrote many other novels is one of our most important writers his publisher wanted to cut that novel in half luckily month didn't let him go. another example is his famous novel the tin drum told from a child's point of view ryan mack. national socialism and world war two class portrays the german people as a nation of nazi sympathizers who refuse to grow up. the film version of this work drives home this point with vivid images and.
this book from one nine hundred fifty nine was the first major novel to deal with germany's nazi past. but people used to think that evil spirits suddenly appeared somehow suggest the german people were not how it was it all took place in broad daylight on his part. was just six when the nazis came to power near the end of the war he served briefly in the vatican s.s. finally admitted this in two thousand and six. writing has always been a way to deal with the past when goss published the term drum it caused a scandal no one had written about world war two with such serious such brutality i'm such. a towering figure in german literature and an eloquent spokesman on the darker chapters of recent german history gus was awarded the nobel prize for literature in one thousand nine hundred nine.
the life of another nobel laureate how to milla was also shaped by totalitarian regimes she grew up in romania her father served in the buff in s.s. after the war crime other was deported to the soviet gulag milla emigrated to west germany in one thousand nine hundred seven and was finally able to write without government imposed censorship. i write about the broad spectrum of individuals who live in dictatorships. everyone from the true believers all the way to the dissidents. in the hunger angela tells the story of her mother and other ethnic germans in romania at the end of world war two thousands of ethnic germans were deported to soviet labor camps. or was awarded the nobel prize in two thousand and nine. some newspapers in the us. who had to who no
one says that anymore. what's it like for you to figure on this list next to such literary greats like thomas mann and going to a gas you know it's a nice minute it's a good feeling of course i certainly won't complain about making the list. right after i saw it i asked myself oh my goodness how many of these books have i actually read actually have certainly not all one hundred it's more like about thirty. you do have to write after all exactly now i have to do is read the other seventy actually sixty nine since i wrote one of them i mean i guess we all have quite a bit of reading to do i really should read them. there are a lot of other books on the list that i've been meaning to read so there are some really good writers on that list but there are also some others that are missing.
with those me as far as new literature is concerned i would definitely say english . and fighter camp. i would put kemp ascii right up there with c. boy and your own son in the combination of those three you're able to interpret their work differently so in that context is definitely worth another look as a reader ask which books you'd have thrown off the list maybe we better not. and that was our it's twenty one from the frankfurt book fair our talk on one hundred german must reads will continue next week with part too. and we ask you can german writers also do light and funny. of course we'll show you great literature which was adapted for film edition you are. still. on the silver screen. the comments on the ruble.

a new film for trains on street lim grinned younger years. and taking it to the top featuring an austrian patisserie high up in the alps. we start off the show on the water one of the best surf spots in the world is located off the portuguese coast in here top surfing athletes take to the water like fish and conquer mountain highways for a true adrenaline rush well this fort is not for amateurs the surfers wear special gear in case that the waves overtake them we went along to meet some of these adrenaline junkies and watch them in action. it's known as the beast of nasser a huge waves have pulled many fishermen to their death on this part of the portuguese coast. today those same waves draw the very best of the big waves
surfers from all around the world surface like sebastian story there from germany winter is his favorite time of year he spent the last few months preparing for the surfing singson. one of the one of the more months and months go by where nothing happens but every day you have to work towards your goal to be successful but the reason i do it is because i love it. sebastian is a professional surfer at the age of sixteen he moved to hawaii but he spends the winter months here in portugal on just a few days in winter between november and february the monster waves here on the coast can reach heights of up to twenty five meters money because the answers were to my greatest fear isn't dying i don't worry about sustaining terrible injuries either. let's i think it's the competitor in me that worries. my greatest fear
is missing out on the biggest wave of the mystical surveillance ocean just off the coast of nasa ray this is shoojit undersea canyon that runs five thousand meters deep it causes the water to build up creating towering waves it's thanks to the canyon that nasa ray has some of the biggest waves in the world and that has changed the town which is home to some fifteen thousand people it was once a place of pilgrimage now surfers and tourists from around the world flocked to the town making it an all year round attraction. so they are going to give us a obviously we do miss our old nestle a sometimes but only a bit because actually we're proud. our town is known the world over. at the traditional restaurant. locals and surface come together to swap stories about the wild waves. when they really want to.
use wasn't when we first came here in two thousand and twelve they all thought we were crazy this is a fishing community and folks grew up hearing about all the fishermen who died when their boats capsized. and about death beach and the waves that turned women into widows. now we servers have almost become local heroes and are treated as such going on with marina pereira is the second generation of her family to run the restaurant the place used to cater to fishermen now it's a fixed address to international surf as. sebastian is like a son to me i take care of the guys they turn up here frozen and i serve them hot soup they love it let us open. up until i used to go no one who did to go surfing here it was petro pisco the first realize massah raise
weights could be a hit so he wrote to the big white circus around the world and invited them to come . to see much more of the surf he says something about the attract every single person we all get better you see crazy guy surfing you don't go bring down a model a mountain of water that is chasing you finally the time has come for sebastian story to get out on to the water he can hardly wait to scan the tight image now for the fun part there's no nerves or tension at all just pure pleasure for. wearing an airbag vest which would bore him up in an emergency he heads out to sea ten people are here to assist in doctors' lifesavers. away spacek and his jet ski drive is hutto him to the right position he glides easily down the fifteen made to wait as though it were effortless. in the moment the moment i actually surf the wave it's all just instinct i don't think any more it just happens but you know. there are
only around ten people worldwide who surf on waves of this size thousands come to watch for the small town of nazareth it's a gift that big wave surface have transformed the place and given it a new sense of pride. from on the water to in the water and fish in malta received a visit from santa claus more on that and other stories in the spirit of the christmas season coming up in today's express. it seems there's nothing santa con to do he's even dived into a giant aquarium to bring the fish a little holiday cheer he came bearing gifts of fish food for the fish and sharks that swim in the biggest tank of maltose national aquarium in kwara center in vis case it's keeper alex rodriguez is dropping clues feeding the fish anyway whether
or not the sea creatures recognized him in the skies we'll probably never know. the sauna is a part of life in finland even at the christmas market christmas shoppers can stop by to enjoy the high temperatures and to chat. up the boast that i'm no. different from everybody is he. and it's very easy musical. saunas in public places used to be commonplace in finland. but as more and more people installed them in their homes they disappeared from view. now the communal saunas are enjoying something of a revival. sarahs and
a bed of belgium has set up a christmas village in his yard and decorated it with thousands of lights that even feature santa claus's office. says his son over early on plays the jolly elf listens to children's wishes the family's been working on the village since september. so john event took a month off work to complete it. turning down to one of the most famous guitarists of all time mark no fleur former front man of dire straits since the band broke up in one nine hundred ninety five no floor has concentrated on a solo career he recently brought out a new album called down the road where ever which includes his typical rock n roll style but also brings in some soul and jazz and hear from him now about how this new album came about. cut. through.
this thing called good on you son is about being at peace with yourself and mark knopfler very much is. a bridge to the like. we visited him at his studio in london this is where he recorded his new album. with an earthy i don't try to interfere with the mystery of it too much the soul is like a child you know in a way you have to let it just grow and be itself for me too me to feel too much you know and it's a bit like choosing the best school if you have a for you for your kid too soon there's schumann's. sky his blue. ribbon. is one. his new songs always turn out best when times almost stand still like in matchstick man which takes
a look back at his beginnings as a musician. what does he see i think i in the middle of nowhere just a matchstick man. you spoke of if there was a sort of a button fastening competition or something i promise you i would be lost i mean there's lots and lots of things that i seem to do slowly i mean walking down the street i get overtaken by old ladies going to the post office and so i don't seem to be able to do anything particularly quick. he was already twenty eight when he co-founded dire straits by that stage he played in countless bands and worked as a journalist and as an english teacher it was nine hundred seventy seven a time when punk and disco were exploding in britain dire straits seemed almost old fashioned at first with their. cool blues rock sultans of swing was their first big
hit. then m.t.v. started out with their increasingly mainstream sound the band fit perfectly to the station's us american music profile. mark knopfler solo career has now lasted longer than his time with dire straits two very different chapters of his life. you can't really compare them i think both and a lot of ways because the first achieved so much of the dream stuff that you want to you know to actually get there. was very important you know that just it was brilliant it was great you know and i loved it. i loved the whole thing it until it became so big that i just stopped enjoying it. in the eighty's the
band rose into the league of mega stars with the album brothers in arms the digitally produced album helped to make the compact disc popular dire straits was the first band to sell more c d's of the album than vinyl over a million and all until they split up in one thousand nine hundred five they played all the world's large stadiums. next year mark knopfler will go on tour again of course with his very own special guitar sound. guitar teacher would say. you know i play guitar like a promise you know but it's too late for me to. to correct. those
mistakes i'm afraid it's. definitely worth a listen ok if swedish author astrid lindgren were alive today she'd probably be a spokesperson for single mothers not only did she penned the famous pippi longstocking stories she had to work hard to maintain custody of her illegitimate son and that was back in the one nine hundred twenty s. her personal story is full of intrigue and challenge and it's now been brought to the silver screen and the film becoming a straight danish director pair neil christiansen per trey's the writer's lesser known side. of this line comes down to. where did the famous children's book author get her exuberant attitude towards life the movie centers on the three years and young asteroids like
that she only spoke about decades later and only very little she was wild non-conformist and downright rebellious much like her character pippi longstocking . she has i mean she is the most. amazing fantasy and i think that has a lot to do about her childhood to grow up in the countryside in kind of freedom where she could just play around then just. be free. to move to sweden astrid langridge grew up here in the one nine hundred twenty s. in a free but conservative society her father was a tenant farmer. her mother deeply devout. by the time she was eighteen she was eager to experience life. though michael newspaper was looking for a trainee at and she took the job. so i tell ya don't
