The Sunday Magazine December 28, Our reading habits changed with pandemic lockdowns — here's how The pandemic has changed a lot about how we live in the last couple of years, from how we shop and how we socialize to how we work. It's also had an effect on our reading habits, changing everything from how much we read to the kinds of books we choose.
Piya Chattopadhyay sits down with Elamin Abdelmahmoud, Emer O'Toole and Niigaan Sinclair to reflect on , from pandemic valleys and peaks, to news stories that changed the dial and more.

The Overstory author continues his exploration of pressing environmental and existential questions in his Booker Prize-nominated follow-up, Bewilderment.

The Sunday Magazine December 21, Why an Oji-Cree community is trying to rebuild its Catholic church Despite the scars left by church-run residential schools on members of the St. Theresa Point First Nation, many in the community are devoted Catholics. So there was devastation when their local church burned in suspected arson last year, and now they're trying to rebuild. The Sunday Magazine December 17, It's a simple matter of chance in life!
And it's time to give a small second chance here to this attractive scottish band. Review by GruvanDahlman Prog Reviewer. Sunday is an obscure band and I treasure this album, I do. I bought it several moons ago and have not regretted it once.
The amount of hammond organ is immense and that can be quite enough for me. But how about them songs? What do they amount to? The main opus of the album is the great and varied "Sad man reaching Utopia".
It is an epic of rough qualities going through several moods and changes. A great track, really worth exploring for those who've missed it. All in all I'd say the album is a good one but not essential in any way. It is a pleasant album with one foot in prog, one in blues, an arm in funky Santana style, the other in hard rock and the heart in the right place.
Gritty, sincere and proto proggish in a nice way I come back every now and then. The issue with this album being, besides the tracks mentioned, that the bulk of the album is alright but never truly engaging. Still, with three great tracks and wonderful musicianship not to mention the vocals, which is very nice indeed the album is an endearing piece of early 70's prog rock caught somewhere between Rare Bird and Santana.
The band had great dynamics whenever they took the stage. Patrick Hannan always kept a steady beat with his drumming, and was quick to incorporate some interesting fills. David Gavurin often played on an acoustic guitar strumming in a quick, rhythmic pattern and playing trebly leads. Harriet Wheeler was at the front of the stage and the star of the show. She was always amazing audiences with her great vocal range and beautiful, delicate delivery.
We can only keep are fingers crossed that the Sundays will come out of hibernation and dazzle audiences once again with their breath taking music. Read more. Report as inappropriate. Here's where the story ends This girl-fronting English rock band are gigging again and hopefully writting a follow up to their third and latest album 'Static and Silence. Their live sets are chilled with sweet melodies floating around the room.
Harriets gracious delicate voice is relaxing whilst also powering. Classic numbers like 'Here's where the story ends' and 'Summertime' will surely be the tunes of the night, the ones you tell everyone about the next day at work. But hopefully new material is spawning out of The Sundays machine and if it goes down well live then The Sundays could be back in our hearts in no time. See all photos 3.
