and so this is not a snobby stephen king.i work for three publishing companies and stephen king paid a lot of my salary. okay, but but believe it or not, after 42 years in the system, i'm still rather romantic about about the autonomous literary imagination and that i really truly believe whether it's true or not, i believe that that novelists are in there as people they're they're like you and me as novelists. they are higher forms of life with with with higher perceptions that not that float free of all this -- we live in. sorry, c-span and i think. i think you're you you try to read as an allegory of toni morrison's remove yourself from random house. i don't buy that. i think you're right on infinite jest being an allegory of of david foster wallace his into into the literary or the entertainment industrial complex e.l. doctorow ragtime i don't think so i think there's a doctor over who is a. a great public intellectual a critic of the of the system. and then there's the e.l. doctorow, the novelist. and he don't i don't qu

, has significantly decreased. sales of books by authors who refused to cooperate with russia, stephen kingr example, fell by more than 20%. but if we talk about russian authors, today at the peak of reader interest is zakhar prilepin on his dogs. it's about the book dogs and other people. sales growth exceeded 240%. autobiographical books by nikolai tsyskaridze also promise to be a hit. as for foreign agent writers, they don’t have much influence on the market. a little book geography, the market is growing most actively in the far east, an important indicator is the provision of stores in cities, and here kazan became the first. there is one store for every 25,000 residents; there are 50 of them in kazan . volgograd comes last in the ranking with only 14 bookstores, one for every 70,000 residents. at all, the situation with bookstores is alarming. over the past couple of years, 86 locations have closed. bookstores cannot withstand the competition of marketplaces; not only can you buy a book there with a click, but also the prices are much lower, well, that is, in essence, this is price du

i want to bring in stephen king, a senior fellow for middle eastern and african studies at the councilforeign relations. let's pick up on that point, if you would. thank you for joining us first of all. this is so important for joe biden to be seen to have some sort of win here, isn't it? it is. this is an election year in the united states, and the president needs to demonstrate that he is in command and that he is not overwhelmed by crises in the middle east. but of course, pushing for a ceasefire also sort of does open him up to criticism from his opponents, who have sought to make israel and israel's security wedge issue in american foreign policy. so he has to be careful. from president donald trump, the presumptive republican nominee, does not come out to suggest and argue that president biden are somehow compromising israeli security by pushing ceasefire but large numbers within the republican party believe would be premature. we were just talking a talking a moment ago about perhaps what it would take for mentioning to be netanyahu to agree to something, and could perhaps worki

and to be quite honest, stephen, i've got more chance of representing the king at, uh, royal events than. i read and the royal fold now. i read and saw that interview he gave about reunifying the royal family or reunifying the royal family or re re illness can help reunify our, um, a family. well he goes a strange way about it. i mean, one report said that he wouldn't even step into the same room as his stepmother, the queen, because of what he'd said in speah because of what he'd said in spear. so, look, we all love a nice ending to a story, particularly where there's been, you know, a lot of hassle and everything else. but i'm afraid we're not going to have any fairy tale happy ending in this one. >> and we should remember, should we not? >> charles, that that the late queen, she held that summit at sandringham, didn't she? and those red lines were drawn up , those red lines were drawn up, and she was very clear that he could not have a half in half out role. and so king charles, he would not be tempted to verge away from that, would he ? away from that, would he? >> no, i don't think

. >> i'm stephen dixon and i'm anne diamond, and this is breakfa5t on gb new5. where we're going to be talking about the king's health in a couple of moments. but i just saw there'5 moment5. but i just saw there's a lovely piece about about the king and then also about queen camilla in the whatsapp the sun. sun on sunday. and they're calling camilla the king's rock and saying, you know, she's not i mean, she's ageing as well isn't she.7 yeah. i mean, she's ageing as well isn't she? yeah. and she's had illnesses and lots of, you know, pressure in her life and everything like that. but but this lovely piece by tom bower, the, the author is saying that she's that her absolute outstanding strength is the fact that she is his rock, which i thought it's quite interesting because the sun , not that many because the sun, not that many years ago, would have been saying everything horrible about her, and now how the tables have turned, how the tables have turned, how the tables have turned, because to a certain extent, she is sort of in charge at the moment, isn't she? she's obviously decided that she's going to look af

stephen flynn. can i begin with expressing my heartfelt sympathies to brianna's mother who is in the public gallery as we speak. also spend my best wishes to king household finances. so not to be outdone, the prime minister on monday this week accepted a bet regarding the lives of asylum seekers. in doing so, he demeaned them as individuals and he degraded the office that he currently holds. can i ask him, will he apologise? mr currently holds. can i ask him, will he apologise?— currently holds. can i ask him, will he apologise? mr speaker, we may have a principled _ he apologise? mr speaker, we may have a principled disagreement. i l have a principled disagreement. i believe that if somebody comes to this country illegally, they shouldn't be able to stay and they shouldn't be able to stay and they should be removed and that is why we are committed to the rwanda scheme. as ever the prime minister does himself no favours because at the back to which we are referring was worth £1000. it came just hours before the prime minister ended cost of living support with just £900. his justification for doing so was that the cost of living crisis is easing
