In the opening dialogue of Ancient Apocalypse, Hancock rejects being identified as an archaeologist or scientist. “Perhaps,” Hancock posits in the first episode, “the extremely defensive, arrogant, and patronising attitude of mainstream academia is stopping us from considering that possibility”. The reason little evidence exists, he says, is because it is under the sea or was destroyed by the cataclysm. The survivors of this advanced civilisation, according to Hancock, introduced agriculture, architecture, astronomy, arts, maths and the knowledge of “civilisation” to “simple” hunter gatherers.

The rhyme scheme of this sonnet – are you ready? – is ABBA ABBA CDC DCD. Rhymed: There are several different traditional rhyme schemes for sonnets. This is a fact that English teachers love to repeat, so it's a good one to know. In fact, if you read a poem that's fourteen lines, the odds are that it's a sonnet. ![]() OK, now that we've explained that let's take this one feature at a time: Fourteen lines: Every sonnet has fourteen lines. That's one reason this poem feels very conventional, maybe even a little inhibited it's playing by all the rules that it can find. But before you even know what all that means, you can notice that this poem is highly structured – the number of lines, the number of syllables in each line, and the rhyme scheme are all prescribed by the literary tradition for sonnets. Whoa, sorry, we slipped into literary techno-babble there for a moment. It's a sonnet – a fourteen-line rhymed lyric poem written in iambic pentameter. ![]() ![]() ![]() On the drive home, Christopher decides that he’s going to figure out who killed the dog, Wellington.

And all of this converges in a spectacular fashion in the writer Dolores Redondo, one of the latest great phenomena of Spanish publishing with her Baztán trilogy (more than 400,000 copies sold, published by Destino, label of Planeta group a tourist route already created a movie in the making…). And further, as has been the norm during the last editions of the prize, it should go to somebody who belongs to us.

In part two, we’ll go into detail about the murders and the subsequent trial. In this episode, we’ll discuss the police investigation that led to the discovery of the bodies in the barrels. The others were killed because they had knowledge of the murders, or to access their Centrelink payments, or simply because John Bunting didn’t like them. Only two of the twelve were paedophiles, though. The investigation would reveal that the crimes were the work of a man named John Bunting and his group of friends, motivated by Bunting’s twisted obsession with killing paedophiles. The bodies of eight people were found in barrels full of acid in a disused bank in the small country town, and four other murders would later be linked to the crime. In a state known for its weird murders, Snowtown was something else. ![]() Only one of the murders occurred in Snowtown itself. The Snowtown murders, or the Bodies in the Barrels murders, is the name given to a series of killings committed in the nineties in Adelaide, South Australia.

Listener discretion isn’t just advised, it’s mandatory. ![]() This episode will discuss paedophila, sexual abuse, assault, torture, murder, dismemberment, and many other horrific things. ![]() Be warned, this episode covers some seriously fucked up shit. ![]() ![]() ![]() How did you interact with the music while you were writing? So much of the song is asking us to remember, so it made sense to make her a figure who was focused on remembering and remembrance and that's how she became the historian. As usual I needed it to be some angry woman. And the song being a song doesn't really have a character or one particular person to focus on, so I had to think about who was going to be the person that I wrote it about. And I have to say at every step of the way they were supportive of every decision I made. I wrote an outline to see if Navah would be okay with it, and most importantly, to see if Clipping would be comfortable having their song turned into whatever story I wanted to tell. ![]() ![]() Would you like to turn it into a book? And if so, what book would you write based on this song?" I wasn't really given anything that I had to stick to it wasn't even specified that I had to write the same narrative of the song into the book. Basically Navah, the editor, reached out to me and she was like, "Hey, listen to the song. Since you were commissioned to do this book, were there any parameters that you had to follow while writing?
