The future of fiction
One of the richest strands to emerge from the festival is fiction from writers of East Asian origin, who record some of the most devastating social and political upheavals of the last half century.
At the end of a session with thriller writer Sam Bourne this week, an audience member asked why there was so much writing about the Nazi Holocaust and so little about other, more recent ones. Bourne - whose novel Pantheon investigates the complicity of Yale and Oxford universities in eugenicist attempts to save "the brightest and best" during the second world war – was speaking in one of the bigger tents at the Edinburgh International Book festival. Thanks partly to the World Writers' Conference, more recent holocausts have been discussed, but you needed to go to the smaller venues to find them.
题材的汇集让人不禁想：文学界和读者们对 holocaust 题材经久不衰的热爱是出于什么心理？

我也不爱，见了躲还来不及呢。所以奇怪这些人看多了欧洲的 holocaust 还不够，追着看别处的 exotic holocaust，这是什么心理？围观公路车祸么？干嘛不去写美国人屠杀印第安人的 holocaust？笑嘻嘻 wrote:我好像从来不爱看这个题材的小说电影。
但是我喜欢侦探谋杀类，所以也好像也不易撇清

Holocaust题材可以写成严肃的悲剧，也可以写成感官刺激的thriller。
经典侦探小说重点在于推理，和原始形态的悲剧大不相同。不过近年来主流的探案小说有越来越血腥暗黑的趋势，所以BBC4前阵子播瑞典版Wallander我都没看。不过从今天起，每个周末会放新的Montalbano，共有12集！Andrea Camilleri统共才写了十来本不够拍的，估计新的几集就纯粹成为based on Montalbano novels了。

还是Luca Zingaretti，有点显老了。Jun wrote:是不是加入了新的青年 Montalbano 啊？我在油管上见过片段，但是没有英文字幕。
Montalbano小说里美食多得不得了，但电视里几乎很少提到，让人抓狂。我最喜欢看Montalbano与副手Mimi拍着桌子吵架，还有Catarella夹缠不清，哈哈哈。
