    Olalla author Gregg Olsen’s first novel has the same tone and subject matter as his eight true crime books, but the ability to control the plot allowed him a new freedom.
    “Real life is messy,” Olsen said. “Writing true crime forces me to stick to what actually happened. Writing fiction allows me to tie up all the loose ends.”

    To call the Turtle Island String Quartet a classical music act is akin to calling Jackson Pollack a painter. Sure the label fits, but like Pollack, Turtle Island are revolutionaries of their craft, taking classical elements and splattering them all over the wall along with elements of folk, funk, rock, hip-hop, be-bop, bluegrass, swing, Latin American and rhythm and blues.

    The language of sexuality is often shunned by society but will be spoken openly and fluidly starting tomorrow on Bainbridge Island as Eve Ensler’s “The Vagina Monologues” takes the stage at Bainbridge Performing Arts.
    Its return is due to the vision and determination of Island resident Mary Granfors.
    “I know that this is an important social piece that needs to be happening,” said Granfors, who is directing the play.

    The second installment of the Island Soundscape Chamber Players series of cross-over compositions adds local writer Bill Branley’s contemporary twist to Igor Stravinsky’s “L’Histoire du Soldat (The Soldier’s Tale).
    Set in contemporary time, the story centers around a soldier returning from war. Much like the original first produced in 1918, the protagonist is a war surviving violinist who sells his musical instrument to the devil.

    Ken Kesey’s immortal character, con-man turned convict Randle Patrick McMurphy is a portrait of rebellion and individuality.
    In the 1962 novel “One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest,” McMurphy claims insanity in order to be transfered to a mental institution, in search of creature comforts. What he finds is a rallying ground for a group of stark individuals which he bolsters, and supports in taking a stance against authority — more specifically Nurse Mildred Ratched head of the asylum.
    Hailed as a literary masterpiece, the book was an inspiration to a generation that began to challenge the authority and social norms of the late 1950s and early ‘60s.
    Now, the adapted stage version of the story is challenging the norm at the Western Washington Center for the Arts.

    The popularity of hospital dramas on television attests to society’s fascination with death, illness and the struggles of modern medicine. These are subjects that fascinate and terrify us, and have been studied in the media and literature since the first writers put pen to paper. “Wit,” opening at the Jewel Box Theatre Feb. 2, explores the subject in a different way — through the eyes of a literary professor with terminal cancer as she assesses her life with profundity and, as the title suggests, wit.

    When you become an editor, the first thing you need to absorb is that the buck stops with you. As cliche as it may seem, it is as true as it comes.
    Reporters come and go, some are more prone to mistakes, some less, but both trials and triumphs reflect directly on the editor. We’re the men and women behind the scenes who are ultimately responsible for crossing the T’s and dotting the I’s, but even so, we’re not infallible. We miss some T’s and I’s along the way and don’t always exercise the judgment we should when editing a piece.
