Emily St John Mandel came to prominence with her fourth book, the pandemic post-apocalypse Station Eleven. That book gained a second wind when the COVID pandemic hit, and was turned into an HBO series.

Make a wish and have it instantly granted – if only it were that easy. While the enticing idea forms the basis of the Disney animated feature Wish, things of course aren’t quite that straightforward. Magnifico (the voice of Chris Pine) has studied the magic of the world, and soon becomes a mighty sorcerer and…
So far as US network television is concerned, The Good Wife ticked a lot of boxes. The legal drama scored a host of awards and, it’s fair to say, was missed by many when it finished in 2016. If you’re one of those, you may want to tune into The Good Fight, now showing on…
