As Ciuraru’s title suggests, the book focuses especially on the role — and toll — of being a wife, stifling one’s own creative impulses for the sake of a temperamental artist.

This month's picks include a wry Bosnian coming-of-age film, a documentary about supernatural phenomena in Scotland and a drama about missing women in ...
The director, Laura Mora, captures their journey with a kinetic naturalism that evokes documentary, but interjects moments of fantasy, allowing the boys’ inner lives the space to breathe and bloom. The many layers of this adventure are almost impossible to keep straight: Leonor is inside her own trashy ’80s action film, like a God descended upon earth; outside, Rudy is producing another, more modern version of that script; and at points, we see glimpses of the making of the film we’re watching, so that we never quite know which reality we’re in. Once famous for making melodramas packed with shootouts and fistfights, Leonor (a delightful Sheila Francisco) stops working when she loses one of her sons to an on-set accident. In the opening moments of Ena Sendijarevic’s film, the wide-eyed, high-cheek-boned (and soon-to-be-blonde) Alma (Sara Luna Zoric) stands in front of a mirror in a clothing store in the Netherlands, arguing with her mother about whether she should buy a lilac dress or a red one. Martika Ramirez Escobar’s film is one of the weirdest meta-comedic capers I’ve seen in a while, not least because its heroine is a sweet older lady who loves violent action movies. She’s lost, Sendijarevic suggests, because she’s an immigrant in the land of her own people. To rescue her, her son must make her movie, with help from the ghost of his brother. Venturing into documentary terrain in these scenes, with candid portraits and testimonies of these resilient individuals, “Noise” shows us the grit and solidarity that keeps people pushing against the worst of odds. Soon, our deadpan heroine will leave for Bosnia to visit her estranged father, who’s dying in a hospital; on the way, she’ll lose her suitcase, and have only that dress (she goes with lilac) as a souvenir of home as she traverses strange motel rooms, bars, buses and the Bosnian countryside. This connection between audiovisual technology and extrasensory experiences forms the spine of “The Two Sights.” On the soundtrack, various locals of the Hebrides describe strange incidents and encounters: a man who heard the radio years before its invention; a woman who saw a shadowy premonition of death; a fisherman who felt an unsettling communion with a beached whale. Bonnetta’s careful layering of sight and sound casts an extraordinary spell on the viewer; I felt as though I, too, were suddenly able to peer into the interstices between our world and another world. Kyle Buchanan is covering the films, personalities and events along the way.

A Georgian manor overlooking the River Nore. Five hundred acres of parkland paradise. Not one, but two five-star hotels. A Michelin star.
B&B with dinner in Hunter’s Yard starts from €375 for two sharing; B&B with dinner in the Manor House from €545. The choice is between the Manor House (where rooms are individually designed and priced at a premium) and the larger Hunter’s Yard. The resort has definitely gone up a gear since my last, pre-pandemic visit, and there are stress-melty moments. At a price, of course — even the three-course table d’hote menu costs €99pp. In terms of activities, guests have the run of a sublime, 266-year-old estate, with bikes, walking trails (don’t forget that selfie in the Moon Gate), an equestrian centre — and that golf course — all beckoning for your time. There’s no turndown service, but WiFi is password-free and easy, and touches like flick light switches and a lamp with a leather strap-effect stand add tasty little layers to the luxury. The concierges and storytellers here are among the best in the business. At the latter, our double room had a deep burgundy colour on the walls, thick robes in the wardrobe, duck-feather pillows and Bvlgari products in big dispensers by a Burlington sink. There, the welcome is warm and resort layout explained, before we are escorted to our room. Elsewhere, wait staff are charming to deal with in The Hound restaurant on our visit, but some need more menu knowledge. We’re invited to sit in a clubby reception with leather chairs and individual desks. A Georgian manor overlooking the River Nore.
