1 hour ago The Best of Everything by Kit de Waal review – the power of kindness

Love and loss combine in this tender tale of how a mourning Caribbean mother cares for othersReflecting on his childhood in the autobiographical novel In the Castle of My Skin, George Lamming wrote that it was “my mother who really fathered me”. Damningly, the Barbadian novelist asserted that his father “had only fathered the idea of me”. That notion of children being left mainly, if not solely, the liability of mothers still widely resonates in Caribbean households. In Kit de Waal’s tender novel, The Best of Everything, the protagonist Paulette, a single mother, embraces the role not just of mothering and largely fathering her son, but also selflessly acting as a proxy mother to a child who risks being abandoned.De Waal, who edited the 2019 anthology Common People, has long championed working-class lives, “written in celebration and not apology”. In The Best of Everything Paulette is a migrant to Britain from St Kitts, an auxiliary nurse whose disdain for bedpans doe...

12 h. ago Frattesi puts Inter in control with win at Bayern Munich after costly Kane miss

Bayern Munich have everything to do if they are to claim the Champions League on home turf. This was a party thoroughly spoiled by Inter, who might have feared the worst when Thomas Müller scored a rapturously-received equaliser five minutes from time. Müller’s 25-year spell at Bayern will end this summer and everybody thought they could read the script. Then the substitute Davide Frattesi ripped it up, adding to Lautaro Martínez’s brilliant opener and exacerbating the potential costliness of a glaring first-half miss from Harry Kane.“Kings of the cup”, a display from Bayern’s Südkurve had read before kick-off. In fairness Bayern genuinely believe they are: Real Madrid are the only institution with as discernible an aura, regardless of who is rolled out, when the Champions League reaches its business end. The sense was they would require that confidence in a tie that had looked delicately poised. Alphonso Davies’ serious knee injury, sustained on international duty to Bayern’s fury,...
