film
Of Gods and Men is the austere, beautiful and sometimes hard-to-watch story of French monks in Algeria, threatened with death by the local fundamentalists, who make it clear what their fate will be if they stay. The question of whether to stay or go preoccupies the monks for much of the film.
book
Marian Keyes's tenth glorious doorstop of a novel focuses on the inner lives of the inhabitants of 66 Star Street, a Dublin townhouse with a blue door and a banana-shaped knocker; a gift from a previous tenant, a metalworker with a sense of humour (who everyone hated).
