A sprawling family epic full of brains and mystery

Flashlight, the engrossing sixth novel by the American writer Susan Choi, opens with Louisa and her father making their way down a breakwater at the tail end of a Japanese sunset. Louisa's mother is absent: she 'isn't well'. Her father, who holds a flashlight in one hand and Louisa's hand in the other, confesses that he has never learned to swim: 'I grew up a poor boy. I had no YMCA.' He tells Louisa to 'act thankful now' to her mother for making her learn. And, Choi, writes, 'those are the last words he ever says to her. (Or are they the last words that she can remember? Did he say something more? There is no one to ask.)' He vanishes into the water. No body is ever found. Fans of Choi's work – which delights in playing with the reader's expectations – may remember the set up. This prelude was first published four years ago as a short story, also called Flashlight. At the time, Choi talked about 'wrestling with this material… trying to figure out what it wants to be – a short novel, or a long novel, or stories, or one story'. Her 447-page, six-part, sprawling family epic, which takes in five countries, spans several decades, and is mostly written in a free-indirect style that allows Choi to switch between four main characters, is her answer. The narrative proper begins with Louisa's father. It's spring 1945; he's six years old. His parents are Korean exiles, who left their homeland, Jeju island, for Japan, and while his Japanese name is Hiroshi, at home he is Seok. Later, when he emigrates to the US on a graduate visa, he goes by Serk. (Shifting identities are a running theme in Choi's work, not least in her last novel, Trust Exercise, a bestseller that won the 2019 National Book Award.) Next, we meet Anne, Louisa's mother, who has abandoned her family and her chances of a high school diploma for a man who abandons her once she becomes pregnant. She is forced to give up the baby, Tobias – after a vivid labour 'where the vengeance of God tore her entrails out by the roots' – but he will re-emerge later as a pivotal character. Novels developed from a short story are legion: Virginia Woolf's Mrs Dalloway, Jonathan Franzen's The Corrections, Haruki Murakami's The Wind-Up Bird Chronicles, Charles Baxter's Saul and Patsy. But in freeing their writer from length restrictions, novels pose a counter-challenge: can a writer justify the many tangents of their narrative? Choi stripped most of the backstory out of her original story leaving her with plenty of gaps to fill in. Is Louisa's mother ill? Why did her father make them leave the US, and Louisa's fourth grade, for a sabbatical in Japan? And what is the significance of her father's flashlight? Choi takes too long to get to the meat of her story: what happened, or will happen, to Serk? Less patient readers may stop. But it pays to persevere. Choi is an astute, convincing writer, whose prose bristles with vivid imagery. In that opening section, 10-year-old Louisa lies in bed while 'the dark slid itself onto her chest like a snake, organising its weight into nearly stacked coils that might go on forever and bury her, crush her, if she didn't leap out of bed just in time.' Choi's choppy rhythm conveys a child's breathless angst. If Trust Exercise was about who controls a story, then Flashlight is about what happens when your own story is out of control. Louisa spends her life dealing with the aftermath of her father's supposed drowning. A child psychologist reminds her that she told the person who found her that her father had been kidnapped. 'No I didn't,' she retorts – the reality of what happened to them remaining a riddle for most of the novel. The book's title, Flashlight, is a metaphor that works hard throughout, illuminating certain events while keeping others in the dark. Serk doesn't know about Anne's son; Anne doesn't know about Serk's Korean heritage. The flashes of understanding that occur to characters as the decades roll by are like shapes that emerge from the gloom when someone sweeps a torch beam to and fro. And ultimately, the light Choi shines on an astonishing international scandal – revealed in the 'Acknowledgements' section for those who want to skip ahead – makes Flashlight a rewarding read. The expansion was well worth it.

Disney fans rave about 'terrific' new TV series despite less-than-stellar reviews from critics

Disney fans have been raving about a 'terrific' new TV series despite less-than-stellar reviews from critics. Ironheart, that moves on from Black Panther: Wakanda Forever, is a six-part sci-fi series that follows Riri Williams (Dominique Thorne) as an MIT student who returns home to Chicago. The brilliant teen makes a suit of armor that rivals that of Iron Man's Tony Stark before she joins forces with mysterious criminal Parker Robbins (Anthony Ramos). The first three episodes aired on Disney+ in June with the last three released on July 1 - and the series, which cost a reported $150 million dollars to develop, has received a 86 percent score on Rotten Tomatoes. Fans who have already binged the mini-series have flooded to Reddit to share their positive reviews. 'I love the show so far, the storyline is great... I can't wait to see where it goes next,' someone wrote. 'This show is terrific. One of the better Marvel shows. I'd say I'm enjoying it as much as WandaVision and Agatha,' another praised. 'Magic and political side of the Marvel Cinematic Universe always is my favorite. I cannot wait [for] how Ironheart will fuse magic with technology,' a user shared. 'I'm enjoying it. I don't understand the hate towards it,' another said. But the rave viewer reviews come after less-than-stellar critiques by film experts. Mark Cassidy revealed he had 'seen all six episodes' and wasn't very impressed. He said: 'I've seen all six episodes of Ironheart, and it's not good. It becomes obvious very quickly why Marvel decided to dump this on D+ 3 eps at a time. 'Can't fault the cast, but none of them are given much to work with.' The Guardian rated Ironheart an average three out of five stars and praised Dominique Thorne's performance as 'stunningly charismatic' but said it was 'slightly tiresome.' Ironheart is based on the comic book character of the same name created in 2016 by writer Brian Michael Bendis and artist Mike Deodato. She first appeared in Invincible Iron Man Vol. 2 #7 as a 15-year-old super genius who was attending M.I.T. on a scholarship and, in her spare time, created her own Iron Man suit using materials she stole from the campus. The release comes after it was revealed that Marvel 'in talks with major Hollywood director' to mastermind the hotly-anticipated X-Men reboot. Thunderbolts* mastermind Jake Schreier is believed have been lined-up. After the commercial struggles of films such as Dark Phoenix and The New Mutants half a decade ago, the X-Men are yet to make a return. But beloved characters such as Professor X, Cyclops and Iceman could be set to grace cinema again in 2028 with a new movie reportedly in the works.

Fans think TV show once called a masterpiece 'needs to end' after season 5 news

The Bear will officially be coming back for a season five — but not all fans are best pleased about the Disney Plus renewal. The fourth season of the kitchen nightmare awards darling arrived last week, with all episodes streaming just in time for a weekend binge. Just days later, FX confirmed the Chicago sandwich joint turned haute cuisine restaurant coincidentally called The Bear will return with a new season in 2026. By some miraculous feat of scheduling, the show's stars Jeremy Allen White, Ayo Edebiri and Ebon Moss-Bachrach will all be back for the fifth instalment — despite all having a suite of upcoming film projects. FX Chairman John Landgraf confirmed the renewal in a statement, saying: 'The Bear continues to be a fan favorite worldwide and their response to this season — as seen through incredibly high viewership — has been as spectacular as any of its previous seasons. 'Year-in and year-out, Chris Storer, the producers, cast and crew make The Bear one of the best shows on television, and we are excited that they will continue to tell this magnificent story.'

After all, season one still holds a 100% 'fresh' rating on review aggregator site Rotten Tomatoes and has been dubbed a 'masterpiece' by both critics and fans. Yet when the renewal news was shared on Reddit, @RawEnergyHD declared: 'It needs to end I think. I think there's a couple loose ends but should not continue much longer tbh,' with many joining the comments to agree. 'I enjoyed season 4 a lot more than 3, but yeah it really needs to wrap it up. This is not a show that can go forever,' replied @TheSecondEikonOfFire. TV Editor Sabrina Barr shares her take… For me, the fire that fuels the show now feels like more of a gentle flame than a blaze. Enough to warm my heart, but not enough to give me that feeling of satisfaction I so sorely crave. I am still invested in The Bear and the characters who I've followed since the series first launched in 2022. However, despite the fourth season boasting 10 episodes, I was left wanting more. Or at least, more fire. I'm glad Carmy is reaching a point of finding greater peace – it's what he needs, and he deserves more balance in his life. But the chaos of The Bear is one of the reasons why people around the world fell in love with the show. And even with a literal ticking clock looming in the kitchen of the restaurant, I feel as though season four could have picked up the pace. Responsible-Worry560 added: 'It's pretty much at the end line. Almost all the loose ends are tied at the end of season 4. Only the financial part of the restaurant is a mess now.' More Trending However, not everyone wants the show to bow out just yet. @5am281 countered, writing: 'Or they just keep making seasons for people like myself who enjoys spending time with them?' 'I would love to see the show do this if it ends after 6 seasons,' @NoahStewie1 wrote, with a suggestion for the direction the show could go. 'Season 5 would act as the final season for the show and season 6 would be an epilogue season with each episode devoted to a character each showing us what they have moved on to and how working at the Bear taught them the skills they use at their current work.'
