By Peter Kurth. 587 pages. Little, Brown. $24.95. Today all Dorothy Thompson’s books are out of print–they were largely rehashes of her newspaper columns and radio talks–and people tend to confuse her with Dorothy Parker. A decade after her death in 1961, she re-emerged as a minor heroine to gay women because of her affair with German writer Christa Winsloe; you don’t even hear much about that anymore. But Thompson’s friend John Gunther called her “the best journalist this generation has produced in any country”; after Eleanor Roosevelt, she was the most influential American woman of the ’30s and ’40s....

Speaking with GamersFlag, Suzuki sat down to discuss the progress of the development of Shenmue 3. When asked if the game’s ending would allow for the possibility of a sequel, Suzuki replied, “Yes, the end will be open for a sequel. It will not be possible to finish with this third episode.” For long-time fans, this probably doesn’t come as much of a surprise. Suzuki has openly spoken on his eagerness to produce a fourth Shenmue game, which means players have only seen half the story he dreamed up so far....

The Liverpool loanee increased his tally to three goals in 12 league appearances this campaign as Slavisa Jokanovic’s men grabbed their eighth league win in the 2017-18 season.
