How To Climb Mt. Fuji Independently
By Erika van 't Veld August 8, 2019 November 16, 2022 East Asia, Japan, Trekking
The Mt. Fuji summit is the top of Japan, reaching 3776m above sea level. Hiking to the top of Mt. Fuji was traditionally a pilgrimage hike that has become a wildly popular bucket list item. During Mt. Fuji's short hiking season, people from all around the world come to reach the top of Japan.
Many people choose to hike up to the Mt. Fuji summit with a tour, but it can easily be done on your own. Here's all you need to know to climb Mt. Fuji independently, including how to get there, what to expect, and tips on how to make it safely to the top!

The climbing season for reaching Mt. Fuji's summit is a short one. The trails are only open from about mid-July through the beginning of September, when Mt. Fuji's summit is not blocked off by heavy snow. Outside of these months it is near impossible and highly dangerous to attempt a summit climb.
First-aid stations as well as mountain lodges open up to hikers when the Mt. Fuji hiking season officially starts. There are no services on the mountain when the trails are closed.
Below are the official opening and closing dates for each trail up to Mt. Fuji's summit. These dates are valid for the 2019 climbing season, but are standard for most years.

The Four Trails of Mt. Fuji and their Differences
There are four different trails that you can take to climb the Mt. Fuji summit. They are the Yoshida Trail, the Subashiri Trail, the Gotenba Trail, and the Fujinomiya Trail.
The Yoshida Trail (yellow)
Known to be the 'easiest,' with the closest and most frequent access to Tokyo and Kawaguchiko. It has the greatest number of amenities including mountain huts, and at the 5th station, many gift shops and restaurants. For this reason it is also the most crowded, and you will encounter many tour groups along this climbing route. The trail is a zig zag for the ascent, and sloping, longer zigzags for the descent.
The Subashiri Trail (red)
This trail starts at a lower altitude than the Yoshida Trail, and the path up is more of a general slope instead of a zig zag. The Subashiri trail merges with the Yoshida trail after the 8th station, for both the ascent and the descent, and takes about the same time to complete. There are no mountain huts on this trail below the 8th station.
The Gotenba Trail (green)
The Gotenba trail is the least crowded trail, possibly because it is the longest one to climb. It starts at the low altitude of 1,450m, which means you need to ascend a whopping 2,300m to reach the summit of Mt. Fuji!
The Fujinomiya Trail (blue)
This trail is known as the most difficult, because of how steep and rocky it is, although it covers the shortest distance. The Fujinomiya trail is the second most popular after the Yoshida trail, and it has mountain huts at every station for those who want to stay overnight. This trail takes you directly to the highest point on Mt. Fuji, at 3,776m.

The most popular hike to reach the summit of Mt. Fuji is the sunrise hike. That means you start climbing from around 10-11pm, and reach the summit just in time for the sunrise.
To do this, you can either do an overnight climb, or a "bullet climb."
An overnight climb is where you hike to Mt. Fuji's 8th station, stay in one of the plentiful mountain huts overnight, then wake up at around 2am to resume hiking to the summit.
A bullet climb is where, in one night, you climb from Fuji 5th station up to the Mt. Fuji summit for sunrise, then back down to Fuji 5th station.
You can also extend you Mt. Fuji hike to a multi-day hike by starting even lower in elevation. Mt. Fuji 1st-4th stations still exist as pilgrimage routes, and a sea-to-summit long distance hike is also an option.
Bullet climbing is officially discouraged by the Mt. Fuji Conservation Group because of the risks of altitude sickness and bodily injuries, but it is still a popular way to climb Mt. Fuji. Bullet climbing saves money on expensive accommodation in a crowded mountain hut, where it's difficult to get sleep anyways.
I bullet climbed the Yoshida Trail on August 1st, 2019
The following tips are based on my experience climbing to Mt. Fuji's summit from the Yoshida Trail. Here's how to do a bullet climb up to Mt. Fuji's summit from Tokyo!
Before You Go - Preparing to Climb Mt. Fuji
Try a practice hike near Tokyo, like from Mt. Jinba to Mt. Takao
The most important thing to know for climbing Mt. Fuji is to bring layers.
Even if Tokyo is hitting 35 degree + temperatures during the summer, the summit of Mt. Fuji can still be below freezing. It may be a good idea to rent proper winter clothing that you can layer, just for being at the summit when the temperatures drop.
For the summit, I wore heat tech leggings under sweatpants, a ski jacket over a t-shirt, over a heat tech long-sleeve, with a hat and gloves, and I was still FREEZING. Others had brought blankets, sleeping bags, and even space blankets for the summit.
When you're descending from the summit as the sun is rising, the temperatures can spike too, creating potential for heat stroke. By 6-7am on my descent it was easily 30 degrees, and it's a long way down from the summit of Mt. Fuji.
Budget for Bullet Climbing Mt. Fuji
I spent as little money as possible to bullet climb Mt. Fuji. The highway bus tickets that I purchased to reach Mt. Fuji's 5th station were 2900 yen each way from highway-buses.jp. At a minimum you will spend 2900 yen x 2 = 5800 yen.
I spent about 1000 yen in Tokyo buying Pocari Sweat ion drink, granola bars, onigiri rice balls, and apples to bring on the trip. Remember to bring a plastic trash bag for yourself, because you need to bring out whatever you bring in to the Mt. Fuji area.
It's a good idea to eat dinner before getting on the bus to Fuji 5th station too, which should cost no more than 1000 yen.
One of the shops along the Mt. Fuji trail, selling all drinks for 400 yen, and various snacks for 250-400 yen
At each of the 6th, 7th, and 8th Fuji stations and at the summit there are small shops where you can spend 700-900 yen on cup noodles, 400 yen for water or other drinks, and 200-300 yen on various candies and snacks.
To use the restrooms along the hike costs 200-300 yen, based on an honor system of putting coins in a box.
I would bring 2000 yen extra in cash and coins with you for snacks, souvenirs, and restroom breaks. You could also spend as little as 5800 yen to climb Mt. Fuji (only the cost of the bus tickets).
Total Budget: 7800 yen
Hiking boots (preferred but not required)
Trekking poles (common but not required)
Warm winter Goretex jacket
Sweatpants for layering
Long-sleeved shirt for layering
Blanket for the summit
Poncho in case of rain
At least 1.5 liters of water or fluids per person
Also: Several 100 yen coins for using the restroom along the way (200-300 yen each time)
How to Get to Mt. Fuji 5th Station from Tokyo
The simplest way to reach Mt. Fuji 5th station from Tokyo is to take a highway bus from Shinjuku. In 2.5 hours, the bus takes you from the heart of Tokyo, to Mt. Fuji's 5th station rest stop. If you are staying in Tokyo and want to climb Mt. Fuji overnight, taking this bus is the best option.
Bus tickets cost 2900 yen one-way, and 5800 yen round-trip.
If you plan on climbing Mt. Fuji in August, your timing will coincide with the Japanese summer holidays. The weekend bus tickets sell out the quickest, so it's best to book a few days ahead of time. Book highway bus tickets here.
The waiting room at the Shinjuku Highway Bus Terminal for the bus to Mt. Fuji 5th Station
It is also possible to take a train or bus from Tokyo to Kawaguchiko. From here, there are regular busses that bring trekkers up and down from Mt. Fuji's 5th station. Check the bus schedule up to the 5th station from Kawaguchiko station here.
Bus tickets cost 1540 yen one-way, and 2300 yen round-trip. The train from Tokyo to Kawaguchiko costs an additional 3460 yen one-way, and is only partially covered by the JR Pass.
Starting the Climb to the Mt. Fuji Summit
In the dark, it's hard to find the trailhead for the Mt. Fuji summit. After getting off the bus, follow the buildings on your right hand side and you will eventually be on the path. The trail starts flat and wide, but it will eventually narrow and become steep and rocky.
Along the trail there are plenty of signs that will point you towards the summit of Mt. Fuji, labeled the Yoshida Trail and the 8th station. The signs also list the estimated hiking time left to reach the summit.
In the dark, you can see several lights in the distance at a higher elevation on Mt. Fuji. These are only the 6th and 7th stations, no where near the 8th station!
The bus will drop you off at Fujisangogome, then follow the road along the right hand side to start the climb!
The official time it takes to climb Mt. Fuji on the Yoshida Trail is 10 hours:
Ascend – 6 hours
Descend – 4 hours
Time at summit, varies 1-2 hours
It took me 6 hours to climb up and down Mt. Fuji, without experiencing any serious altitude problems:
Time at summit – 4 hours (waaaay too long, I should have ascended slower)
Before climbing Mt. Fuji, I was living a mostly dormant life in Tokyo with the occasional weekend hike. However, I do have lots of previous trekking experience and high-altitude experience in Nepal.
I climbed fast to avoid being stuck behind long queues like this one. In some narrow, rocky sections it's impossible to get around people!
Preventing Altitude Sickness while Climbing Mt. Fuji
To avoid altitude sickness, it's recommended to spend an hour or so at the 5th or 6th station. Giving your body a little time to acclimatize may help prevent altitude-related headaches and dizziness towards the summit.
At each station on the Yoshida trail, there are large outdoor benches that you can sit on to rest. You do not need to buy anything from the mountain huts to sit on these benches!
Don't Reach the Summit Too Early... It's freezing cold!
Pace your climb so you don't get to the summit of Mt. Fuji too early. It took me four hours to reach the summit from the 5th station, meaning I arrived at 2am. This was WAY TOO EARLY, and it resulted in almost two hours of freezing and shivering at the summit waiting for sunrise.
Try to arrive at the summit around 4 a.m. This might mean resting for longer at each station, or taking some time to acclimatize at Fuji 5th station. Fuji's station 8.5 is the last one where you can get food and take a rest room break. Above this station, the mountain huts are bare and without amenities.
There were many things at the summit that I was surprised about. The first is all the amenities that are available there. Large (but smelly) bathrooms, vending machines, and restaurant/souvenir shops line the crater ridge just at the end of the Yoshida Trail.
The restaurant/souvenir shops open their doors to shivering hikers around 3:30-3:45 a.m, so it's a good idea to arrive no earlier than this. They sell bowls of udon, cup noodles, and other warm foods for about 800-900 yen. There are also hot chocolate cans and coffee cups for 400 yen each. The vending machines serve both hot and cold drinks.
Hikers packed in to the restaurant when it opened, because it was much warmer than outside
It's not difficult to find a good place for sunrise at the Mt. Fuji summit. The entire side of the crater has plenty of space for all the hordes of people who come to the Mt. Fuji summit for sunrise. As the sun is glittering above the horizon, there is also a great view of the stream of people still climbing up to the summit too.
After the sun comes up, you can see many souvenir stands start to set up in front of the restaurants. Pick out a keychain, handkerchief, and more to commemorate you summiting Mt. Fuji!
It's estimated to take about one hour to hike all the way around the Mt. Fuji crater at the summit.
When you're at the summit, don't forget to check the crater behind you filling up with mist!
The Descent from Mt. Fuji's Summit
I hope your knees are ready for the descent! It is a long way down so make sure you are well-rested at the top for the climb down.
The zig zag descent is long-winded. It's fun at first, but repetitive towards the end. Descending is a bit like skiing, where you push your foot into the lava rock and you slide down with each step.
There are few places to rest on the descent, besides one large restroom building that's about halfway down from the summit. Beware that the trail splits between the Yoshida trail and the Subashiri trail halfway down, and there is a sign to mark the split.
Returning to Tokyo from Mt. Fuji 5th Station
It took me two hours to descend from the Mt. Fuji summit to the Mt. Fuji 5th station. I had a bit of time to kill between 8 a.m. and the departure of the first highway bus back to Shinjuku at 10 a.m. Luckily there are plenty of souvenir shops, restaurants, a shrine, and a big restroom and lounge area to kill some time in.
The ticket stand for the highway bus station opens at 9:30 a.m. to buy tickets. It's likely that the first bus back to Shinjuku at 10 a.m. is sold out from online purchases. If you want to take this bus back to Tokyo, it's best to reserve in advance. Tickets purchased in advance or day-of cost the same, 2900 yen one-way.
Another option to return to Tokyo is to take a bus from Fuji 5th Station to Kawaguchiko Station, which leave about every 20-30 minutes. From Kawaguchiko Station, you can take the train back to Tokyo for 3460 yen one-way.

Mt Fuji is such an iconic image of Japan, I wouldn't have guessed you could hike it independently. The thought of hiking it on your own is really exciting- i hate doing group tours for hikes. The sense of achievement would be incredible! Im hoping to go to Japan soon, so this has been so useful!
I hate doing group tours for hikes too, so I was happy to be able to climb Mt. Fuji independently! It's very easy to organize yourself, and I hope you will enjoy Mt. Fuji and Japan when you visit!
Your post is so informative and helpful! I had no idea there was such a short climbing period. It does sound like 2am must have been so cold and too early haha! Thanks for sharing
Thank you! Yes, Mt. Fuji can only be climbed in the summer because there is snow at the summit for all other times, making it dangerous to summit. But the summit is still cold even in the summer 🙂
Vanessa Shields says:
Wow this sounds like an amazing experience! Reading this post makes me want to plan a trip to do it! So many great tips for planning the hike, thank you!
Definitely plan a trip to Japan, there are so many beautiful places to see here, including Mt. Fuji!
This is a dream of mine. Thank you for such an informative guide.
The sunrise hike looks absolutely incredible! This is definitely on the bucket list so will be back to this post when I finally go!
I highly recommend it! Bring warm clothes and good shoes to trek in and you should be good to go!
I would love to do this – but those crowds, yikes! I don't to be with so many people. I have flown over Mt. Fuji when flying from Tokyo to Bejing and it is quite beautiful. Looks like I will have to visit around it where I can see it and not on it. This is a great post for seeing what it is really like – THANK YOU!
The crowds on the Yoshida trail were quite something! It only slows you down during the hike up though, which is not a bad thing because it will help prevent altitude sickness. The summit of Mt. Fuji is large enough for everyone!
Woaahhh this is awesome! I'd heard so much about climbing Mt Fuji, but never really looked into how to do it! I think I'm between wanting to do the easiest trail (because easy!) and the hardest trail (because shortest!). Hmmm….
Climbing Mt. Fuji is a challenge, but it's totally possible for anyone to do. I would recommend just taking the Yoshida trail (the easiest trail) because it's also the most accessible from Tokyo 🙂
That's so cool that you did that! I was there during cherry blossom season and absolutely loved the area!
It would have been amazing to see Mt. Fuji and the surrounding area during cherry blossom season! Unfortunately the spring is still too cold to climb Mt. Fuji but I'm sure the views were great!

Gavin Cowan: AFC Telford need to find cutting edge
By Dave CooperAFC Telford UnitedPublished: Dec 10, 2018 Last Updated: Dec 10, 2018
AFC Telford United need to discover their cutting edge in the final third of the field to kick-start another run in the National League North, according to boss Gavin Cowan.
Gavin Cowan
The Bucks chief watched his side slip to a second successive defeat at high-flying Altrincham on Saturday.
The Bucks went six games unbeaten prior to last week's defeat at home to Bradford PA – and after Saturday's loss at Moss Lane Cowan called for his side to start turning possession into chances and goals.
He said: "I feel we dominate in and out of possession but have had no real cutting edge and what we need to bring now is that cutting edge.
"We've got the players to do it, we have players with a history of being clinical.
"Someone said to me recently, look after the performances and the results will look after themselves and I think that will come.
"We aren't being outfought and it isn't like the opposition are better than us, but there are areas that we need to be better in.
"Defensively we were not as reliable as we have been, we were jumping in and making rash challenges.
"That isn't needed when you're up against a team that is doing well away from home. For some reason the lads' belief has deserted them. The performances aren't bad but the results need to improve."
Cowan also admitted he was hard on his players after last week's defeat to Bradford Park Avenue, and it has prompted him to change part of his management.
He added: "Last week I apologised to the lads because afterwards I said they've let themselves down, but looking back I realised they didn't.
"I was just disappointed, and it is a good development for me because I know I can't be so rash, that is why I haven't spoken to the players straight after and have given myself time to take the game in."

Needles family
Douglas J. Needles
Date of birth August 6, 1968[1]
Age (1885) Not yet born
Age (1985) 17
Played by Michael Peter Balzary
(billed on-screen as Flea)
Voiced by Michael Peter Balzary
"Hey, the big "M"! How's it hanging, McFly?"
"He [Marty] picked up the remote control and banished the art channel painting to the corner of the screen. / Needles smiled his gap-toothed grin as his head and shoulders filled the rest of the video display and his identification code flashed on: NEEDLES, DOUGLAS J. ADDRESS: 88 ORIOLE ROAD. A6TB-94. That was his home address; not that Needles was ever home. From the row of vidmemos behind him, Marty could tell the other man was still at his station at work. Sometimes Marty wondered if Needles ever left the office."
"Jennifer looked closer, and saw Needles behind the wheel [of the truck] — only now he was seventeen years old, not middle-aged like he he had been in the dream from the future. Jennifer frowned. He was supposed to be seventeen, wasn't he? They were all seniors in high school, weren't they? Then why did she keep seeing everybody the way they were in the dream?"
—From Back to the Future Part III by Craig Shaw Gardner (quote, page 208)
Douglas J. Needles (typically referred to as just Needles) was an acquaintance of Marty McFly and his girlfriend Jennifer Parker though likely not a friend. Unlike Biff Tannen, who typically bullied Marty's father George into getting what he wanted, Needles appeared more of a rival to Marty who could goad Marty into doing foolish things by calling him "chicken".
According to Needles' video telephone datafile in 2015, he lived at 88 Oriole Road A6TB-9 with his family.[1]
1.2 Original 1985 to 2015
1.3 History Rewritten
Douglas J. Needles was born on August 6, 1968, and was raised in Bakersville to an unnamed father and mother
In 1979, Needles moved to Hill Valley from Bakersville, and bought his way into The Pinheads with his mother's money. Since Needles couldn't play his guitar and he was a showoff, Lee and Paul told Marty they didn't want him in the band. Needles overheard this and started his own band. This furthered Needles' grudge against Marty.
In 1984, Marty met Jennifer at Hill Valley's 7-Eleven and was going to ask her on a date when Needles interrupted them.
The clerk told Needles to either buy something or leave the store, whereupon Needles picked up a bag of Snacky Chips and threw it into the clerk's face, telling him to hold it for him while he browsed the store.
After Needles had finished harassing Marty and Jennifer, he picked up the bag of chips and threw it in the clerk's face once again, saying that he had changed his mind about buying the chips due to the cholesterol content.
Original 1985 to 2015
On October 21, 1985, Needles was indirectly responsible for ruining Marty's life by talking him into racing their trucks.[2] Marty ended up crashing into a Rolls-Royce Silver Cloud I. The Rolls-Royce driver ended up pressing charges against Marty, who had broken his hand in the accident and would later give up on his music.[1] It was not known to Jennifer until they returned to 1985, however, that the race had been Needles' idea.[2]
By 2015, Needles and Marty had begun working together at a plant, with Needles possibly being in a higher position than Marty (similar to George and Biff in the first film). Needles was attempting to convince Marty to join in on an illegal scam — which involved the use of Marty's CusCo credit card — to make more money. Marty was hesitant at first, but went along with it when Needles called him "chicken". Unfortunately, their boss, Ito T. Fujitsu, was monitoring the entire transaction and fired Marty on the spot. Whether Needles himself faced any consequences is unknown; he seemed to be smirking as he hung up, indicating that he set Marty up. However, it is also possible Needles was smirking because of his supreme confidence in pulling off the scam, which may mean that Needles got his comeuppance by Mr. Fujitsu or the plant upper management. Since Fujitsu had monitored the transaction, and quickly fired Marty, he certainly would have fired anyone else involved in the scam. It is also possible that Needles knew that Fujitsu would fire him if he went through with the crime, that he bribed him to keep his job.[1]
History Rewritten
Just after Marty's return from 1885 to 1985, Needles (seen at age 17) met up with Marty and Jennifer at the point where he proposed the race along with his friends. This time, however, Marty had learned not to lose his judgment because of name-calling and avoided the drag race by pretending to go through with it, thereby preventing the accident and changing the future. Needles and his gang took off and were nearly the ones to hit the Rolls Royce, but they barely evaded an accident themselves through evasive steering. What this meant for Needles is unclear, although his causing Marty to get fired in 2015 may not come to pass — bearing in mind that the words "YOU'RE FIRED!!!" on the fax sent to Marty by Mr. Fujitsu subsequently disappeared before Jennifer's eyes.[2]
In another timeline, Needles had funded GriffTech in 2032 for its ThingMeme social network.[3]
Needles was a troublemaker, who goaded Mary into doing foolish things by calling him chicken. When they were teenagers, he goaded Marty into racing him by calling him "chicken", but this ended badly for Marty, as he crashed into a Rolls Royce, breaking his hand as a result, which forced him to give up his dream of playing guitar, as well as being sued by the driver. When they were working at the same company as adults, Needles manipulated Marty into joining in on an illegal scam by calling him chicken, but this caused their boss Fujitsu to promptly fire Marty.
However, after returning from 1885 to 1985, Marty learned to stop worrying about what people thought about him and avoided the drag race by pretending to go through with it, thereby preventing the accident. Following this, the words "YOU'RE FIRED!!!" on the fax sent to Marty by Mr. Fujitsu subsequently disappeared. It is unknown if Needles interacted with Marty again, but judging by Marty refusing to participate in the drag race despite the latter's goading, and the words "YOU'RE FIRED!!!" on the fax disappearing, it is probably fair to say that Needles could no longer goad Marty into doing whatever he wanted.
Michael Peter Balzary (better known as Flea, lead bassist of the rock band Red Hot Chili Peppers) played the part of Needles in Back to the Future Part II, and reprised the role at the close of Back to the Future Part III — being billed in the closing credits on both occasions as Flea.
In the novelization (see Quote above), Needles' address is given as being 88 Oriole Road, A6TB-94.

I absolutely LOVED this dish – but again deviated pretty heavily from the original. Prep time was about 5 minutes, cook time was about 10 minutes. A perfect weeknight meal for you all you working parents.
I altered the emeals recipe, because quite honestly, it sounded like the fish was going to turn out to be very bland and tasteless.
Original recipe called for just salt, pepper and dill on the fish, not even a spritz of any oil. I was supposed to top the fish with a sour cream and capers mixture (which I didn't do). After my modifications, I really don't think the fish needed the topping.
So, here are my "tweaks".
Juice one lemon, add the olive oil, salt, pepper, dill and garlic powder, and gave it a good whisk to blend.
Spray the baking sheet lightly with oil, lay the fish out so they are not touching. Spread the lemon juice/olive oil mixture. Cook at 400 F for 10 minutes.
Sautee mushrooms in the olive oil. Steam the broccoli/cauliflower or cook in microwave. Combine and add salt/pepper taste.
It's definitely quick and easy Sybaritica !

Two for Tuesday: The publishers are bad at marketing! (Or are they?)
by Mark Krotov & Alex Shephard
We eventually talk about this book. I swear.
If you think publishers are bad at marketing please email me, Alex Shephard, at alex at mhpbooks.com and let me know what you think we're doing wrong. If you have a question about what publishers do to market books, you can also email me at alex at mhpbooks.com. If I get enough of emails, I'll respond in a column when I don't have the flu. (To find out why I am asking you to do this, please read the following.)
Alex: Hi Mark! Happy Super Bowl Monday! Or should I say Super Bowl Funday? I will! Happy Super Bowl Funday.
Did you watch the Super Bowl? Or were you one of those people whose Super Bowl is telling other people they don't care about the Super Bowl and don't even own a TV? Those people are bad people.
Mark: I didn't tell anyone anything about my TV or my viewing habits, and I'm tempted to keep it that way. But since you asked, I followed along on Twitter, which is surely the saddest sentence I've ever written. Can we end this conversation now? I need to go take stock of my life choices. This has been the final edition of Two for Tuesday.
Alex: You made a bad decision, Mark. I have learned that certain life events should be Twitter-free and the Super Bowl is absolutely one (though I did check-in occasionally, particularly with Jon Wurster). It was a great game! Did you know that Pete Carroll is a 9/11 truther? And that I am a Marshawn Lynch truther? And that FiveThirtyEight is staffed entirely by Pete Carroll truthers?
Mark: The FiveThirtyEight thing is pretty amazing. Last night as my phone filled up with variations on "whoa," "wtf," "no," and "omg" (or, per Michael Schaub's Twitter, "OH MY GOD" and "Oh, shit."), I started to wonder how long it would be before we'd get the counterintuitive #hottake. (As it was, it was unusual to see so much broad agreement on a given topic.) FiveThirtyEight proved that the answer was "about thirteen hours." Oh well, unity was cool while it lasted.
Alex: I watch the Super Bowl for two reasons: 1. the scorching hot takes and 2. the advertisements. This year's advertisements were a total disaster—they were American decline-personified. Sure, there were a few of the dumb ads we're used to—a car got an erection in one and a tortoise and a hare got it on in another—but the rest were real downers, man. We used to make things in this country. Now we're forced to watch treacly nonsense about the importance of dads and the importance of dads properly securing televisions so they don't fall on children and kill them and turn them into creepy narrator ghosts and the importance of overdosing on heroin while listening to terrible ukulele music. I wanted better ads! I wanted ads about how America is great and about the reason why America is great is a cool truck with cool truck nuts advertising a sexist search engine. (sidenote: did GoDaddy GoOutOfBusiness?)
Oh, there also weren't any literary ads. There should have been literary ads! We should've taken out an ad for Against Football, at least. Sometimes I wonder why we have all this sweet, sweet independent publisher cash lying around and don't use it. What's the point?
Mark: Yep, that was a missed opportunity. Why didn't we do that? Oh, I know why. Because the ads cost $4.5 million for thirty seconds. Which is another way of saying: $150,000 per second. So probably a bit out of our price range. But Knopf should have really stepped it up and paid for three seconds' worth of airtime to promote the new totally authorized, totally posthumous Stieg Larsson sequel. Or better yet, they should have run an ad for the Garth Risk Hallberg book and collected some preorders! Preorders, Alex! As everyone in publishing tells us, they're the only thing that matters.
Still, feasible or not, I would have loved to see some book commercials. Even if they were for schlocky books. Even if they were for James Patterson's exploding book. Maybe next year, all publishers should band together to buy fifteen seconds during which they can quickly advertise every book they're publishing in 2016. It can be like that video of all the episodes of Friends being played simultaneously. But you know what, that's probably collusion. Actually, my talking about is probably collusion. Shit, even *thinking* about it is collusion. So for the record, I think talking to anyone at any other publisher is a terrible idea, as is thinking about any other publisher. I never do it, and I don't know anyone who would.
Alex: I want a Bud Light/FSG tie-in starring Jonathan Franzen. It would sell Purity and Bud Light! Maybe the campaign could be called "Flipping the Bird with J-Franz." It would involve Franzen flipping actual birds and people on the internet giving Franzen the finger? I am available for freelance copywriting work, btw, and I'm a total "mad man" if a certain "Mr. Draper" is reading.
The Super Bowl is nothing if not a massive celebration of American commercialism—it should be called "America, but more so" or maybe just "America, fuck yeah." It is, in other words, a day that's all about selling—selling perverted Internet search engines, selling weird pervert cars, selling the (perverted?) lie that the NFL is a competently run and totally not corrupt organization that cares about its players (and the possibly bigger lie that Bill Bellichick is not an android bent on destroying us all).
But we are not selling any of those things. We're interested in selling books. And that's why we were both drawn to Ken Auletta's very interesting piece in The New Yorker about Matt Bai's All The Truth is Out and why it is not selling particularly well. One thing that is selling, however, is that transition, which was fucking well-executed—even Michael Schaub has to give me props for that one.
Mark: Michael, if you're reading–and really, after such a terrible transition I don't see why you would be–please chastise Alex for that ghastly, ghastly transition. Just think of all the other transitions we could have gone with:
"Like the Super Bowl, which is about selling sex and insurance, politics, too, is about selling something: a candidate. And a recent book about one such candidate, Gary Hart, got some attention last week, from Ken Auletta."
Bill Bellichick might be an android, but Gary Hart was human, all too human. A recent book by Matt Bai explored his humanity, and Ken Auletta recently explored that recent book.
Now those are some great fucking transitions. Top notch.
But yes, the Auletta piece. What a weird piece! Auletta wrote a whole post speculating about why Bai's book didn't sell as well as it should have. It's a thoughtful essay and makes a strong case for the book, but I'm always wary of these kinds of pieces, largely because a) almost no books sell as much as they should have (except for Colton Burpo's books–they sold considerably *more* than they should have) and b) the question of *why* a book didn't sell as much as one person thinks it should have is extremely thorny!
Bai's book is about the 1988 presidential candidacy of Gary Hart, and how it signaled (or didn't!) a newer, more vulgar, more gossipy era in political journalism. This is actually a pretty niche topic! Don't get me wrong–I will read anything about Gary Hart, to whom I was introduced by Richard Ben Cramer in What It Takes, possibly the greatest American nonfiction book of the last fifty years. Toward the end of his piece, Auletta writes:
Perhaps the reason that the book didn't sell, a well-placed publishing executive told me, is because Hart is ancient history, and books on the press are perceived by readers as inside baseball. But the other reason, it seems to me, is that thin-skinned journalists have less interest in reading, and writing, about their own mistakes.
I wrote above that the reasons why books don't meet expectations are usually thorny, but in this case, they are not thorny: that well-placed publishing executive is correct! And Auletta is, I think, wrong! If the book had been targeted specifically to journalists–thin-skinned or otherwise–that would have been one thing, but this was a trade book marketed to the general reader, so journalists' insensitivity seems rather immaterial here.
What did you think of the piece, Alex? And is this a marketing problem? (Spoiler alert: no!) Should Knopf have done some sort of brilliant micro-targeting of journalists who like reading about their mistakes?
Alex: I agree with you and the "well-placed publishing executive," of course! Also, what do you think "well-placed" means here? I SUPPOSE it probably means that he has some relationship to the book and therefore knows something about it but I HOPE it means that he has a nice office or got his job through a temp agency. Maybe all three are true? That would be amazing. I love you, well-placed publishing executive.
I think the Auletta piece is fascinating, in large part because, as you've pointed out, it asks difficult questions about the book industry. I'm particularly fond of Authors United's (hey, remember them?) description of the publishing industry as "venture capital for ideas." Like venture capital, the industry—especially the corporations that dominate it—is often too beholden to trends, to big names and books that "seem like they'll sell well" or have a lot of "buzz." But the truth of the matter is that a lot—and I mean a lot—of work goes into selling books and a lot of incredibly talented people work on getting people to buy them and, nine times out of ten (actually more like nine hundred and ninety-nine times out of a thousand) those books don't sell as many copies as they should.
In some cases, packaging may be to blame—not just the literal package (the cover/copy/blurbs, etc.) but the way the book is presented to consumers. In this case, though, I don't think there's anyone to "blame" for that—this is a book about Gary Hart, which is a subject that a limited number of people are going to be interested in spending $30 on in 2015.
But that doesn't change the fact that the book is, ya know, about Gary Hart. I suppose it could've been given a title like All The Truth is Out: The Week The Media Got Shitty and Bad Because Before that Week is Was Real Good and Had Been Forever or This Is Why You Don't Vote or something, but I don't think that would've changed anything. After all, Gary Hart's name isn't in the title, which indicates that Knopf was nervous about signaling the fact that the book was, well, about Gary Hart. That technique sometimes works—The Swerve isn't called How Lucretius Got His Swerve Back, after all, it's called The Swerve: How the World Became Modern, which doesn't quite call into attention that the book is mostly about an old poem that most people probably didn't give two shits about until Stephen Greenblatt told them to.
That said, balancing those two things is a tricky thing for publishers to do. Bai's book is clearly an narrative history about Gary Hart's candidacy and a Big Ideas Book about the changing face of media. It strikes me as more of the former than the latter, though Knopf clearly pitched it to consumers as more of the former than the latter. I picked it up thinking I was getting that and put it down when I saw that it was a (by all accounts) excellent narrative history of something I'm not particularly interested in (as a Milennial, I don't care about anything that happened before I was born). At the same time, there's another important difference that may (sorry for all the punditry) have made a difference: perhaps people are more willing to read positive Big Ideas Books (How The World Became Modern) than negative ones (The Week The Media Went Tabloid). I don't know. Sometimes everybody's a pundit. Those times are the worst times.
But again, who knows what will work? I sure don't and I am in the goddamn marketing department. My strategy tends to be pretty simple (and pretty contradictory!): try to tell a simple story about why a book matters and throw as many different things at the wall as you have the time and resources to throw.
Mark: The day that Norton publishes a book with "How [anyone] Got His [anything] Back" as a subtitle template will be a great day indeed. Are you listening, Matt Weiland? Melville House demands this of you.
The kinds of decisions and conversations you're describing are at once overthought and underthought–over thought because they usually involve dozens (if not hundreds) of emails and hours spent in conference rooms, and underthought because you simply can't predict how well most books will sell. Certainly not a nonfiction book that's part biography, part narrative history, part media criticism that takes as its focus one of the least consequential elections in recent history.
But that overthinking is a good thing! Given that success is so hard to predict, it's great that publishers give a shit and make decisions, even if the decisions are sometimes wrong and usually don't lead to blockbuster success, anyway. The wrongest part of Matt Yglesias's epically wrong Vox screed last year (a screed that I should stop talking about, because it was written months ago, but I can't, because it was so terrible) was when he wrote that book publishes are terrible at marketing.
Book publishers are not terrible at marketing. They are constrained by any number of factors (money, time, the increasing dearth of outlets that are willing to remember that books exist at all), but unless you market-tested every Gary Hart-related book published in the last twenty years and conducted massive focus groups and somehow found the email address of everyone who has visited the Columbia Journalism Review website over the last five years and bombarded those people with dozens of emails, I'm not sure you could do much better than Knopf did.
Though they probably should have put Hart's name in the subtitle. Not because it more effectively represents the book, but because Gary Hart is the kind of all-American name any reader would love. Much better than Hartpence, which was Hart's birthname. I'm glad they didn't call the book All Truth Is Out: Gary Hart's Name Was Originally Gary Hartpence.
Alex: Here's how Yglesias leads off that section of his pro-Amazon explainer, aptly titled "Book publishers are terrible at marketing":
When I was a kid, my father was a novelist as were both of my grandparents. So I heard a lot of stories about how useless publishers are at marketing books. Then I got to know other people who wrote books and they had the same complaints. Then I wrote a book, and their complaints became my complaints. But it's easy to whine that other people aren't marketing your product effectively. It took the Amazon/Hachette dispute to conclusively prove that the whiners are correct.
After all, imagine a world in which publishers were good at marketing books. Then it would be almost trivial for Hachette to get what it wants out of Amazon. It could just not sell its books on Amazon!…
The real risk for publishers is that major authors might discover that they do have the ability to market books. When George RR Martin's next iteration of the Game of Thrones series is released, I will buy it. If I can buy it as an Amazon Kindle book, I will buy it that way. If he decides that the only way people should be able to read the book is to get Powell's to mail them a copy, then I will buy it that way. And I am not alone. Nor is Martin the only author with the clout to not worry about the terms of distribution.
Vox is ostensibly an "explainer" site (though its record so far is pretty mixed), but this doesn't explain shit. It certainly tells the reader that publishers are bad at marketing (Yglesias is a man's man insofar as he is very good at talking authoritatively about things he does not know very much about) but it doesn't explain why this is, or what they're doing wrong, or anything really. Instead, Yglesias's argument is simple: my grandparents and my parents were authors who thought publishers were bad at marketing, I am an author who thinks this, and I have friends who think this too. Thinking something doesn't make it so, however, even if one's family and friends also think it.
Like Emily Gould, I'm sorry Yglesias had a bad experience, whatever that entailed—same goes for his parents (his father, by the way, has a new novel out in March that looks pretty good) and, why not?, his grandparents. But if publishers are really so terrible at marketing and that is so obvious to everyone, shouldn't it be easy to explain why they're terrible at marketing? Especially on a site whose entire existence is predicated on explaining things? Yglesias doesn't do that—no examples are provided, no evidence is given. It's simply stated. "Publishers are bad at marketing." A lot of people think this!
Look, marketing books is difficult. But one thing that always astounds me about the "Publishers are terrible at marketing" argument is that it's never actually argued—it's only stated. I think that's because publishers aren't terrible at marketing so much as people like Yglesias are ignorant about the publishing industry and the way it operates. That's certainly a failure of the industry—publishers absolutely should be more open about how they operate, both with authors like Yglesias and the general public—but it doesn't mean that they're bad at marketing.
Still, a lot of people think this! So I'd like to invite readers, whether they be pro-Alex Shephard, defender of marketing departments, or pro-Matt Yglesias, defender of his ability to tell people what he thinks about things, to email me at alex at mhpbooks.com to tell me why you think publishers are bad at marketing—how they've failed, how they continue to fail, and what they should do differently—or ask questions about how marketing departments work. Then I'll either turn them into a column or put them in this column next week. I'm serious! Email me. I want to talk about this. Because a lot of people think this and I want to know why—in large part because no one's really ever given me an adequate explanation.
Mark: Can I email you at alex at mhpbooks.com to complain, yet again, about how this column has a terrible name? You know what, I'm going to do it anyway. I hope you address this issue in our next column. It's an important issue, and has gone underexplored for too long.
Oh, is this that moment in the column when you post songs I've never heard of?
Alex: You mean the best part of this column? When Two For Tuesday (in which the "two" is me and you, I think?) becomes Twofer Tuesday (in which the "twofer" is too heavy ass songs)? You're damn right it is. Here are two heavy ass songs from The James Gang.

Woman applauds ruling after man who attacked her outside Paris cafe sentenced to prison, anti-sexism classes
A French man who slapped a woman and threw an ashtray at her after she told him to "shut up" in response to his lewd comments was given a six-month custodial sentence and ordered to pay his accuser $2,300 on Thursday. The 25-year-old defendant in the case had been seen attacking 22-year-old student Marie LaGuerre outside a Paris cafe in a video that went viral on social media. The man, who had previously served prison time for pimping and violence against his mother, will also be forbidden from contacting Laguerre and be required to attend classes on sexist violence and domestic abuse. If the defendant reoffends within the next three years, the judge ruled, he will incur at least an additional six months in prison.
In a Facebook account of the incident, Laguerre had accused the man of using "dirty language, in a humiliating and provocative manner. I told him to shut up and kept walking away, because I can't stand this kind of behavior. I can't keep quiet, and we mustn't keep quiet any longer," she recalled.
CCTV footage shows 22-year-old Marie Laguerre reeling after being struck by her harasser.
During the trial, the defendant denied making sexual remarks and claimed that he had only complimented Laguerre's dress. "There's not a man who has not spoken to a woman on the street," he contended.
Laguerre, who set up the website "Nous Toute Harcelement" (We are all harassed) in the wake of the attack in an effort to encourage other women to share their own stories of harassment, has hailed the ruling as "balanced." In particular, she said, she thought it was important that her harasser would be made to take an anti-sexism course to help enable the possibility of him changing his future behavior.

Q: Eclipse The hierarchy of type VerificationTokenRepository is inconsistent I have the following project structure:
P - Parent Module
A - Module A with parent P
B - Module B with parent P and depends on A (no module-info)

In module A I have the following interfaces:
public interface IRepository<T, K extends Serializable> extends JpaRepository<T, K>
public interface IIdRepository<T> extends IRepository<T, Long> {/* */}
public interface ITokenRepository<T extends AbstractToken> extends IIdRepository<T>

and in Module B I have the following interface:
public interface VerificationTokenRepository<T extends VerificationToken> extends ITokenRepository<T>{

This last interface is the one that gets the subject message. None of the interfaces in Module A cause any errors. All the dependencies in the pom for Module A exist in the pom for Module B and Module B has Module A as a dependency. If I change the definition fo VerificationTokenRegistry so that it extends each of the other interfaces, I still get the same error. If it extends JpaRepository I get no error. I have cleaned, installed, and deployed each of the dependencies. I have restarted Eclipse. But that doesn't help.
Additionally, the error occurs only in the editor window. It does not appear in the Problem window, the Marker window and is not flagged in the Package Explorer window.
The error occurs in the same way for all the interfaces defined in Module B which extend interfaces in Module A.

A: I found that one way to bypass the problem is to separate the offending code into a separate module. The validation module doesn't seem to have a problem if that is done. I assume that is because the amount of code in the module is small.

These five kings did a king to death.
But on a slightly more cheerful note, what a wonderful evening we had, a fitting end to a quite extraordinary year. We began the evening with facts and figures but of course that is only ever half the story and what makes Bridges so special are the people who are involved.
If People make Glasgow then they most certainly make Bridges, all of our people. Our inspirational clients, my exceptionally talented and hard working staff, my ever patient trustees, our volunteers and interns, our partners and supporters and our simply wonderful employers, a fraction of whom we paid tribute to on the night. Without our employers Bridges would just be another agency tinkering around the edges of refugee and asylum integration, you are what make the crucial difference, the relationship between Bridges and employers is what is unique in this sector.
I have spent quite a lot of time this year in various parts of Europe trying to convince agencies that actually working with employers is not so very difficult, if the approach is right, and if the people you are supporting are suitably prepared for the labour market. I'm not saying it's easy but it is, as we prove everyday, do-able. We are lucky in Scotland that there is a broad understanding that if we are going to reach our potential as a country that we need to be a country that celebrates and promotes all of our talents. And talent is something Bridges clients have in abundance, along with a desire to work and provide for their families and to make a difference and a contribution to their new country. Our employers who provide such a wide range of support and who design much of our course content with us, are contributing to that aim of a country of all the talents.
We are fortunate too that our government's in Scotland have understood the importance of integration from day one, and that those waiting on a determination of their asylum cases are not excluded from support, and it is more than rhetoric, it translates too into funding for asylum support, in a way which makes colleagues in other parts of the British Isles somewhat envious. Long may that attitude to integration continue.
But closer to home we utterly reject the assertion by Michael Fallon Defence Secretary in Westminster that we are being SWAMPED by people from overseas. Such rhetoric was common in the Thatcher era and truly belongs in the history books and to the xenophobic ramblings of the Daily Mail in the 1930's and has no place in 2014.
We are not swamped, we are not awash with migrants we are not overrun with foreign hordes. They are no, repeat no, barbarians at our gates.
Instead in Scotland in 2014, in this city on this day, and in that room that evening, we were proud that we and others are encouraged and funded to support remarkable women and men with so much to offer, proud that we are part of building something positive and determined to counteract the scaremongering and the "fear of the other" which experience tells us we will see grow as we approach the UK general election in 2015. For everyone of you that has contributed and is contributing to that support and that positive view of our new citizens, you too should be proud and deserve a pat on the pack, for those of you who are are dipping your toe into the Bridges pond…..I have one message…..come on in the water is lovely.
While immigration remains…..for now….the reserve of Westminster, the drivers of integration are mostly already in the hands of the Scottish Government, and we hope for further devolution of powers to make that integration journey complete. Bridges' submission to the Smith Commission has been wide ranging but in terms of direct benefits to clients we have highlighted on the complete transfer of welfare and equality legislation. Watch this space.
The theme of this years annual report is LEGACY and I hope that everything Bridges does, every client we help, every partner and employer we work with is contributing to that legacy of good practice and humanitarian support. Which is why we were so pleased to be a warded the LEGACY Award from Glasgow City Council earlier this year.
May next year, 2015 marks the start of our Tenth year as a stand alone charity. On May 1st 2005 we opened the doors to our new offices in Bridgeton (although Bridges had existed as a project within another organisation since 2002). We intend to mark that tenth year with a range of events, and new projects to extend our legacy, and to catch up with some of our alumni to find out what they are up to now!.
But before we get ahead of ourselves we must recognise that we are in the process of securing funding for the next 3 years, and as ever in a crowded market place of support for people with multiple barriers the pots of money get smaller and the competition harder. But we press on because the work we do is too valuable to be laid aside; the expertise we have too precious to be absorbed into mainstream agencies; the people we support have too much promise and potential to be overlooked; for the people we support we are a real beacon of hope to the next stage in their journey; the innovations we have introduced and want to develop are too important to be forgotten or mothballed; our reputation is a mark of quality; we make a difference and we are needed.
Our clients often talk about how much we give them but they give us much much more back in return, their good humour, their humility, their determination, their motivation, their successes, their recommendations, and all the chocolates.
They are what make me and my team feel it is worth getting out of bed in the morning for.

THE SHOOT: MediaCity, Salford
BBC Quay House, The Studios, MediaCity Piazza and the view of the BBC from IWM2
Student reflection: James Taylor
The shoot with Adrian was a great experience. We did our photography around the BBC buildings, studio and piazza at MediaCity. Adrian was great to work with, easy to talk to and had interesting stories to tell. Working alongside my more experienced fellow photographer Katie, allowed me the opportunity to share ideas and gave me added confidence during the shoot .
The weather stayed on our side throughout until towards the end when the sun came out but with a quick change of settings, that was solved. Overall the shoot was very successful, I managed to get some great shots from each of the spots around MediaCity. This was a wonderful professional opportunity to collaborate with someone from within the creative industries. Invaluable experience for me as I continue with my studies in commercial photography at university.

Festival 2006, Part I - What Delayed Runnicles?
As I did with the 2005 Edinburgh festival, now seems good time to round up the reviews I wrote during the 2006 festival on the Naim Audio forum (they weren't done here as this website didn't exist yet). You can view the full thread here.
Actually, first review didn't pertain to the International Festival, but rather the Fringe, and qualifies as a shameless plug as it was of a production at my own Venue 40, an adaptation by the Edward's Theatre Company of 1984:
As an Edward's virgin, sitting in the Meeting House foyer an hour or so before they go on, talk inevitably turns to their long association with the venue and some of their past successes (including plays about imprisoned writers after which the audience has been reduced to tears) and you can't help but wonder if this is setting expectations impossibly high.
From the moment you enter the theatre, Big Brother is watching you, whether from the telescreen that dominates the simple set or the two seated columns of cast members dressed in their party uniforms. An eerie electronic music hums in the background. Throughout the play this music is used to great effect, conjuring up the same mundane claustrophobia of an awful situation from which there is no escape that Adam's Death of Klinghoffer managed at last year's International Festival.
The use of space is impressive too. The dystopian film had wide open spaces and to get that sense in such a small theatre is no mean feat. This is helped by a wonderfully choreographed 'chorus' of actors who, in many ways, steal the show. Their mimed routines of the daily grind of life as tiny cogs in a vast machine is superb, and its repetition devastating.
Not everything works perfectly. When we first encounter a rat, it doesn't seem this is truly Winston Smith's worst fear. When Winston and Julia confess themselves to a party official, it seems a bit too rushed (such moments are perhaps inevitable when cutting a work down, but they are few).
Winston and Julia are convincing both as lovers and Winston in his despair at society. But in many ways the show is stolen by the supporting cast. The way in which the 'chorus' switch so effortlessly and convincingly from party workers, to prols, to thought police. The two children, desperately eager to witness an execution. The beauty of the prol woman (no more so than when she sits peeling the potatoes), captured every bit as elegantly as the film.
The production is most haunting, though, in its modern parallels. A party worker's savouring of the reduction of the language yet further, and the possibilities this brings. The 'two minutes hate'. But, perhaps most powerfully, when Smith's interrogator talks of power as an end, not a means, one cannot help but think of certain politicians today.
It's a production that leaves you utterly drained, if not in tears, and well understanding the comments in the foyer.
One last note, don't waste a thought on how the rats will be brought off – when it comes it is both wonderful and chilling.
This was hotly followed by some dire news: what promised to be a wonderful concert from Donald Runnicles and the Orchestra of St Luke'swas cancelled, owing to the sudden hysteria over an a plot to blow up airlines and which meant that musicians were not allowed to take their lethal cellos and tubas onto aeroplanes (they could trust them to the hold, but there are various reasons, from risk of loss, damage in handling and environmental conditions, why you simply wouldn't do this). Then home secretary John Reid was responsible for this scandal and will not be forgiven. The programme was to have included such works as the Siegfried Idyll and a late Mozart symphony (I forget which).
Indeed, it was a bad year for cancellations: the first performance of Troilus and Cresida had to be abandoned at half-time due to a malfunction in the complex stage apparatus. Fortunately, my ticket was booked for later in the week.
My 2006 International Festival did in the end get going with a double bill so good I went to see it twice (after all, I had nothing to do now on the night of the Runnicles concert). This was in the form of a Weill/Brecht double bill of The Seven Deadly Sins and The Lindbergh Flight:
I was at a stunning Brecht/Weill double bill (which is running and the Festival Theatre for the next two evenings, approximately two hours, at 7.15) and I cannot recommend it highly enough. The fact that director Francois Girard is also a film director shows and aides this very much. Indeed, from a production standpoint this is one of the most satisfying operas I have been too.
As a work, The Lindbergh Flight is not the most satisfying in the catalogue. Celebrating the first transatlantic flight, it comes from early in the Brecht/Weill partnership and it could be argued this shows. Brecht's decision to introduce each part with an actor playing him shows that he likes the sound of his own voice rather too much and without enough cause. However, once the curtain rises all such doubts are removed. The set is stunning [sadly the pictures I linked to have been taken down from the EIF website].
The 'plane' moves in an arc from one side of the stage to the other, in front of the world map, as the drama progresses. There are so many nice touches - the 5 clocks, each an hour faster than the last, all moving slowly round. The countries that make up the backdrop are, in fact, in front of the rear screen onto which there are some excellent projections. It's well played and sung, but I suspect that with a poor production it would drag. This, however, is a joy to watch.
The Seven Deadly Sins is far superior, both in terms of the text and the music. I am a little reluctant to describe it as an opera, almost more a cross between opera and ballet.
The story tells of Anna I and II (essentially two halves of the same character). II is played by 7 different dancers, each of whom goes through a sin as Anna goes on her quest to earn money for her family back in their home state (as she does so their house rises at the back).
There is the bite that the music and lyrics of Brecht and Weill has at its best. Gun-Brit Barkmin is superb as Anna I and the choreography is a joy to watch (and I'm not normally much of a fan of ballet). The libretto is nice too.
Throughout both pieces, the playing of Opera de Lyon under Roberto Minczuk is excellent, as is the singing of the chorus. The set design of Francois Seguin also deserves a mention.
This is playing tomorrow and Wednesday and if you are in the area I urge you to go (I may even go and see it again now that I have a night off due to the St Luke's cancellation).
That's all for now, but there's plenty more to follow (including the legendary Mackerras/SCO Beethoven cycle, the Bruckner and Abbado's Magic Flute).

Home Obituaries Christian Garon
Christian Garon
Christian Garon, who died after a tragic traffic accident at the age of 63, was a well-known and well-loved resident of Knowlton for more than 40 years.
Christian first came to the Eastern Townships as a resident of the Butters Home.
He had difficulties at home as a young boy and was sent to the Butters Home first in Austin and then Knowlton, where he settled as an adult with his close friend and roommate, John Blanchard, known to everyone as Johnny. Christian worked at several places in Knowlton, including Knowlton Academy, The Pub and Café Floral.
"Christian was a hard worker. He would do anything asked of him and was always available. He was a friendly man and very good with the customers," said Janet Fraser, proprietor of the Café Floral where Christian worked for the last six years. "Christian was a kind person and he was very protective of the people he loved."
On a sunny May morning, one of the customers who overheard the conversation about Christian, smiled and commented that he had fantastic memory.
"You could ask him anything from the past and he would come up with an answer," she said.
Following his death, there was an outpouring of support online. Christian's funeral was in the relatively small Desourdy Funeral home in Knowlton. Reverend Tim Wiebe of St. Paul's Anglican Church officiated and he said that 1,300 people watched the service on the church's Facebook site. At least 10 times that many have seen it since.

Ferrari's last European title was also on floor exercise in 2007. Last year, she won a silver medal on the event at Worlds.

Today, Anna Pavlova made history for her newly adopted country ' Azerbaijan' by becoming the first Azerbaijani woman to win a medal at European women's artistic gymnastics.
Pavlova won a silver medal on vault with a double twisting Yurchenko (5.8) and a stuck cold Podkopayeva (5.6) and scored a 14.583.
That silver medal is Pavlova's seventh at European championships.
"I was very nervous whether I will do well in my first European Championships competing for Azerbaijan. I am very happy that I managed to win the first medal for my new country. They are helping me to stay in the international circuit – I am helping them to win medals" said Anna Pavlova.
The Russian native moved to Azerbaijan gymnastics after being left on the sidelines in her native country's gymnastics for over five years.
Pavlova who is 26 years old, is the winner of the Olympic bronze medal on vault in 2004.
Switzerland's Giulia Steingruber proved once again, she is the best European vaulter nowadays by defending her European title.
Giulia performed a Rudi (6.2) and a simple full twisting Yurchenko (5.0), she received a score of 14.666.
Romania's Larisa Iordache who was the 2013 European silver medalist on the apparatus, took home bronze.
Newcomer Alla Sosnitskaya of Russia finished fourth. Alla would have won the gold medal, had she not landed on the corridor line which resulted in a 0.3 penalty. Her score would have been a 14.749 which was enough to out score Steingruber.
Germany's Janine Berger had a low chest landing on her Rudi and had a step out of the corridor line. She also had a big step to the back on her full twisting Tsukahara. As a result, she finished 5th.
Great Britain Claudia Fragapane who is having her first major international competition, came in 6th place. 2011 European uneven bars bronze medalist kim Bui of Germany and Hungary's Noémi Makra who competed two simple vaults, finished in 7th and 8th place respectively.
Britain's Rebecca Downie Gets Her Redemption In Sofia
After struggling with disappointments in the past few years, British gymnast Rebecca Downie got her redemption by winning the gold medal on uneven bars today in Sofia, beating Olympic and European bars champion Aliya Mustafina of Russia.
"Every final I have missed out [on a medal] has made it harder to pick myself up and keep coming back but moments like today prove it was all worth it." Downie told BBC.
The British gymnast failed to make her second Olympic team in 2012. Last year, she fell on bars during the Europeans' and Worlds' event final.
Downie's medal is her first gold at a major international competition.
The 22 year old gymnast is the first British female gymnast other than Beth Tweddle to win a European title.
Downie's teammate Rebecca Tunney missed out on medal by only 0.033 points. Tunney who had her first individual European final in Sofia, lost to first year senior Daria Spiridonova of Russia.
Sophie Scheder of Germany finished in 5th place with score 14.733. Larisa Iordache who is the first Romanian gymnast to make the uneven bars final at a European championship since Steliana Nistor in 2008, placed 6th.
With score of 14.400, Kim Bui of Germany came in 7th place, while Spain's Roxana Popa finished last with score 14.266.

Britian's Rebecca Downie and Rebecca Tunney who secured first and 3rd place respectively topped Harrold's score.
Romania's Larisa Iordache made the apparatus final despite being her weakest event.
Germany had two gymnasts qualified to the final, Sophie Scheder and Kim Bui. In last place, came Roxana Popa of Spain.
Sweden Jonna Adlerteg who won the bars silver medal at last year's European championships, failed to qualify and finished in 11th place.
