Irene Nemirovsky’s David Golder, Edgar Wright's Hot Fuzz

A review of the week's cultural events.

Gilbert and George
Gilbert and George place themselves, their thoughts and their feelings at the centre of their art. A major exhibition at Tate Modern in London looks back at their work spanning the last forty years.

Hot Fuzz
From the makers of Shaun of the Dead, Hot Fuzz is an action-packed comedy in which a top London cop finds himself transferred to a sleepy country village.

David Golder
Republished for the first time since 1930, Irene Nemirovsky’s debut novel is the story of an elderly Jewish businessman who has sold his soul. Irene Nemirovsky was born in 1903 and died in Auschwitz in 1942.

David Golder is out now, published by Vintage

The Glass Menagerie
Perhaps his most baldly autobiographical work, The Glass Menagerie was also Tennessee Williams’ first successful play. Jessica Lange stars in this production, newly transferred from Broadway, directed by Rupert Goold.

Monocle
With Wallpaper* founder Tyler Brule at its helm, Monocle is a new monthly magazine that aims to deliver original coverage in global affairs, business, culture and design.
