TBSドラマ『半沢直樹』が社会現象と言えるほどの盛り上がりを見せました。最終回の瞬間最高視聴率46.7％、全回の平均視聴率でも42.2％という平成ドラマ史上No1となる数字（共に関東地区）を叩き出したことからも、盛り上がりの凄さがうかがえます。 ただ、盛り上がった半面、色々な疑問を持った人も多いはず。筆者自身、以下のような質問をちょくちょくされています。 「なぜこれほど盛り上がったのか？」 「ああいうサラリーマンは許されるのか？」 「衝撃のエンディングにはどういう意味があるのか？」 ええ、もちろんこれらは人事の範疇なので、すべて人事的に解説可能です。確かに作品としては純エンタメですが、半沢直樹を人事的に紐説けば、そこに現れるのは生々しいまでのリアルです。ファンはもちろんのこと、ドラマ未視聴という方も、そこから学べるものは大きいでしょう。(本文より)城繁幸の『サラリーマン・キャリアナビ』★出世と喧嘩の正しい作法はこちらから→https://yakan-hiko.com/joe.html

Nearly every US city would like to be more walkable - for reasons of health, wealth, and the environment - yet few are taking the proper steps to get there. The goals are often clear, but the path is seldom easy. Jeff Speck’s follow-up to his best-selling Walkable City is the resource that cities and citizens need to usher in an era of renewed street life. Walkable City Rules is a doer’s guide to making change in cities, and making it now.

Jeff Speck has dedicated his career to determining what makes cities thrive. And he has boiled it down to one key factor: walkability. The very idea of a modern metropolis evokes visions of bustling sidewalks, vital mass transit, and a vibrant, pedestrian-friendly urban core. But in the typical American city, the car is still king, and downtown is a place that’s easy to drive to but often not worth arriving at. Making walkability happen is relatively easy and cheap; seeing exactly what needs to be done is the trick.

歴史的な観点から見ても、作家という職業は他のどんな職業よりも（ま、ジャズ・ミュージシャンやロックンローラーという強力なライバルもいますけど）、酒と密接な関係を保ってきました。なぜなのか？　酒はものを書く潤滑油だから。人間の情念や苦悩や心の闇と対峙していると、酒なしではやってられなくなるから。言葉を無から絞り出す作業そのものがきついから。編集者がやたらタダ酒を飲ますから。作家はバーやクラブで人気者だから。酒は物書きの美学だから。そもそも作家になるような人は酒なしではやってられないほど心に傷を負っているから……とまあ、いろいろな理由が挙げられてきたし、個人によってもまちまちだと思います。でも、とにかく、日本でも海外でも、酒好きの作家が多い、というのは事実です。(本文より)ロバート・ハリス　運命のダイスを転がせ！ はこちらから→http://yakan-hiko.com/robert.html

Gordy LaSure's passionate about film. He eats film, he drinks film, and sometimes he'll even watch a film. But most of all, he loves talking about film, and how they'd be a shit-ton better if only people would pull their asses out of their ears and listen to Gordy LaSure. Why are some films bad and some films terrible? How come just a handful of films (Titanic, Porky's, Dirty Harry) are any good at all? Gordy'll tell you How and Why, and he'll give you a shot of Wherefore on the side. And he doesn't shoot from the hip; he shoots from the gut.

Contrary to popular belief, the roots of American country music do not lie solely on southern farms or in mountain hollows. Rather, much of this music recorded before World War II emerged from the bustling cities and towns of the Piedmont South. No group contributed more to the commercialization of early country music than southern factory workers.

最近、この映画をもう一度DVDで観る機会があったので、今日はこの作品について書こうと思います。 　コロンビアの文豪、ガブリエル・ガルシア・マルケスの文学をマジック・リアリズムと呼びますが、この映画はまさに、我々をマルケスの魔法の世界へと誘ってくれます。 　これは狂った男の愛の物語としても取れるし、ある男の狂った愛の物語としても取れます。どちらにせよ、これは南米でしか生まれないような、熱い愛の悲喜劇です。 　舞台は内戦とコレラが蔓延するコロンビアのカリブ海沿いの港町、カルタヘナ。時は1879年。裕福な商人の娘フェルミーナに一目惚れした若くて貧しい電報配達員フロレンティーノは、何通もの情熱的な恋文で彼女のハートを掴み、結婚の約束まで勝ち取ります。しかし、貧しいフロレンティーノを嫌った彼女の父親は二人を引き裂こうと、娘を遠く離れた親戚の家に隔離してしまいます。（本文より） ロバート・ハリス　運命のダイスを転がせ！ はこちらから→http://yakan-hiko.com/robert.html

David Mitchell’s 2014 best seller Thinking About It Only Makes It Worse must really have made people think - because everything’s got worse. We’ve gone from UKIP surge to Brexit shambles, from horsemeat in lasagne to Donald Trump in the White House, from Woolworths going under to all the other shops going under. It’s probably socially irresponsible even to try to cheer up.

Throughout his genre-defying career as one of the most innovative musicians of our time, iconoclastic guitar player Marc Ribot has consistently defied expectation at every turn. Here, in his first collection of writing, we see that same uncompromising sensibility at work as he playfully interrogates our assumptions about music, life, and death. Through essays, short stories, and the occasional unfilmable film "mistreatment" that showcase the sheer range of his voice, Unstrung captures an artist whose versatility with words rivals his dexterity onstage.
