B14 Terrace Review. —- Wednesday, September 11, 1991 . The Best Stacks Reviews of books from the * Terrace Public Library by Harriett Fjaagesund from the ...- Kaddish in Dublin by John Brady Adult fiction published by Harper Collins The case begins for Inspector Minogue when the body of a man washes up on the beach outside Dublin. He’s fully clothed but without any identification, and has a very large and lethal hole in his head. Then Hynes, a reporter with the Irish Press, pops into the scene. Because of a tip they received, Hynes not only knows who the mysterious man is, or was, but he also knows who’s claiming responsibility for the crime. Paul Fine was the son of a prominent judge, member of a family who had lived in Dublin for generations, and who, in spite of being Jewish, the Irish feel to be one of their own. His murder is seemingly linked to an affiliate of the Palestine Liberation Organization. Then the case takes another odd twist when there is a second murder. | ‘Minogue soon realizes they are not dealing with anything as simple as the PLO, but with another extremist sect that not only has grandiose political ambitions but, even more chilling, police connections. He suddenly finds himself inside the world of the Irish Jew — a per- plexing group of people who are as bound to Ireland as he, yet who are somehow apart. Also by the same author: A Stone of the Heart and Unholy Ground. - Bronze Mirror by Jeanne Larsen Adult fiction published by Henry Holt & Company .. Itis medieval China, and we are at the Court of the Yellow Emperor, - a monarch noted for his achievements in discovering such wonderous things as the wheel and the compass. He has engaged his wife, the Sitkweb Empress, and Tsang-jieh, his favourite courtier, in a story- telling contest that is designed to teach his wife a thing or two about humility. He is unaware that his simple little contest will have far- reaching effects beyond time. The battling storytellers inadvertently weave together the threads of three very different realms, each ignoring the catastrophic wamings sent back arid forth through time. Events and characters suddenly * become all too real, taking on a complicated life of their own. At the centre of this karmic hodgepodge is the Empress’s character, Pomegranate, a young servant girl in service to a wealthy but degenerate family in 12th-century Linan. Tsang-jieh reaches even further back in time to a fabled bronze mirror whose magical proper- ties are linked to the death of a poor peasant girl. The Empress and courtier have begun a sinister tapestry of intrigue and betrayal that will take the entire Court of the Yellow Emperor on a perilous journey through time. Jeanne Larsen is also the author of Silk Road. EFFECTIVE IMMEDIATELY CANADIAN AIRLINES INTERNATIONAL Will be adjusting the departure times of the Terrace and Prince Rupert evening service.

Psycho IV — The Beginning Starring Anthony Perkins, Olivia Hussey, CCH Pounder. Produced by George Zaloom and Les May- . field. Directed by Mick Garris. Rating: R. Running time: 96 min- ules. Everyone knew Norman Bates ~ (Perkins) killed his mother and a score of other people, and they knew he was finally caught and locked away, but few were aware that he was eventually rehabilitat- ed and later released. The world more or less forgot about Norman Bates until 30 years later, when he phoned a late night radio talk show and the surprised host (Pounder) encouraged him to share his views on matricide — the murder of a mother by her child. Now married to the therapist who treated him, a seemingly re- habilitated Norman goes back in time and dredges up haunting memories of his unstable mother (Hussey), who he says was a product of the times, meaning that none of what happened was really her fault. And while he maintains that talking about the past is ther- upy in itself, the disturbing visions he conjures up threaten to topple his sanity: Norman says he has to kill one more time to pre- venl another monstrosity like himself from entering the world.
