Céline Dion was set to make her long-awaited return to the stage in Paris on Saturday after years of battling a rare neurological disorder, with fans counting down the hours until showtime. But why did she choose this city? "It's not just the Olympics effect. Paris was the launch pad for her career. Beyond Quebec, through the '80s and early '90s, commentators have always mentioned that Paris is like a second home for her," says our guest Nick Rees-Roberts, professor of media, culture and communication at Sorbonne Nouvelle University.

It was supposed to be a meeting between a great mind and mine. Instead, I was plunged into darkness and did some swearingThe transition to owning an electric car is in its final phase: our electricity supplier is set to install a smart meter in conjunction with a special tariff that will allow us to charge the car cheaply in the dead of night. After that, all I have to do is live long enough to see a return on my considerable investment.In the meantime – as sometimes happens in the course of my work – I need to interview some eminent scientists. In my experience eminent scientists are easy to reach – they tend to be attached to academic institutions that readily provide their contact details – and surprisingly willing to spend an hour explaining their work to a moron. But there is always a period – the long interval after I’ve emailed four or five, and before any of them have answered – that I begin to suspect a conspiracy of silence. What is it, I think, about my oily emails that they don’t like? Continue reading...

Forget cheap plastic keychains and generic refrigerator magnets. Korea is elevating the humble travel souvenir into a high-design art form, debuting its premier lineup of culturally rooted artisanal goods in the heart of Yeouido. Starting Friday, the Korea Tourism Organization (KTO) unveiled "Korea Select 25," an exclusive 10-day showcase at The Hyundai Seoul running through Sept. 20. Staged on the department store’s lively fifth floor, the pop-up introduces the 25 winning entries of the 2026 Korea Tourism Souvenir Contest to the public for the first time. The crown jewel of this year’s competition — securing the prestigious Presidential Award — is a handcrafted brass tableware set titled "The Brilliant Stage of Baudeogi, Unfolded on the Dining Table."

With a character inspired by Wittgenstein, this exploration of the mysteries of the universe draws on multiple philosophical traditionsFor several years I ran community groups that involved reading books aloud with other adults. Sharing the experience of reading in that way made me notice how, when one or more of us was baffled by a story, this bafflement was rarely experienced without an accompanying sense of mild anger. It was so easy to make us, the readers, angry – at the characters; at the author; perhaps even at the nature of this reality on which we’d lost our grip. We were confronted with the fact that our capacity to understand the world was limited. We didn’t like that.Irish author Adrian Duncan’s fifth novel, A Thought Without Collision, takes risks with this bafflement: it relates and conveys an experience of being mystified by the universe. As it opens, in Ireland in 1923, it is becoming apparent that six-year-old Catherine has exceptional academic gifts, and that her father’s farm is failing. In the next chapter, set in 1951, Dr Josef Alois, a Tyrolean émigré academic in his mid-50s, is living in his self-built house on the east coast of Scotland. He is alone until Catherine reappears, “a handsome woman in her mid-thirties”, and now an Oxford professor. The second chapter ends starkly: Alois “is more unwell than he believes and will perish in one month and eleven days”. Continue reading...

Brook, Lawrence and Smith miss out on centuriesOllie Robinson takes two wickets in first overFriday is the only sold-out day of this third Test but whether that translates into a full house remains to be seen. Much like the series itself, the contest is long since over, set in motion by Pakistan’s howling collapse on the first day and then compounded by England’s ruthlessness on the second.Although for all that England’s march to a 3-0 clean sweep appears a formality, there should in theory be a decent chunk of cricket to enjoy. Joe Root’s side are still eight wickets away from enjoying a weekend at leisure, with Pakistan, set to resume on 52 for two, 268 runs away from making them bat again. Continue reading...
