Perhaps the food is unhealthy, but as far as cleanliness is concerned, the eaters are as sterile as a moon capsule. Whereas Orwell's account is a fascinating insight into a world that in the 1930s was hardly reported on, Wallraff's stories are at times unrealistic, particularly when he tries to convince us that McDonald's restaurants are unhygienic. Orwell's decision to "rough it" for a lengthy period so as to investigate the conditions of the underprivileged was commendable, although his upper-middle-class accent betrayed him, arousing suspicion as to his purpose, and Wallraff, who announced that he was going to establish projects to assist the families of the poor and unemployed, was accused of paying lip service to these schemes and of keeping the proceeds of his tremendously successful book to himself. ![]() ![]() George Orwell (Eric Arthur Blair) mainly reported on the male population in his groundbreaking Down and Out in Paris and London (1933), as did German journalist Günter Wallraff, who disguised himself by darkening his features to investigate the plight of Turkish "guest workers" in Germany in Ganz unten ("The Lowest of the Low" 1985). Undercover journalism among destitute people and the so-called "working poor" is not a new phenomenon. ![]() ![]() Trigger Warnings: Violence/ Near-death Experiences/ Sex scenes Humankind is set to perish, and not even the horsemen can stop Death from fulfilling his final task. But Death’s attraction to her is undeniable, and try though she might, Lazarus cannot stay away from that ancient, beautiful being and his dark embrace. A hopeless task, made all the worse by the bad blood between her and Thanatos. When Lazarus crosses paths with the three other horsemen, an unthinkable situation leads to a terrible deal: seduce Death, save the world. And the longer she tries to stop him from his killing spree, the stronger the desire becomes. Nor can he ignore the unsettling desire he has for her. The one soul he cannot pry free from her flesh. She is the one soul Death doesn’t recognize. But Lazarus has her own extraordinary gift: she cannot be killed-not by humans, not by the elements, not by Death himself. The day Death comes to Lazarus Gaumond’s town and kills everyone in one fell swoop, the last thing he expects to see is a woman left alive and standing. And then, of course, there’s the one I’m all too familiar with. ![]() ![]() ![]() They came to earth, and they came to end us all.

But who were the women who were accused and often killed for witchcraft? What types of women have centuries of terror censored, eliminated, and repressed?Ĭelebrated feminist writer Mona Chollet explores three types of women who were accused of witchcraft and persecuted: the independent woman, since widows and celibates were particularly targeted the childless woman, since the time of the hunts marked the end of tolerance for those who claimed to control their fertility and the elderly woman, who has always been an object of at best, pity, and at worst, horror.
