Time For Some Brain Food

We picked these two artists to move your mind

Jeffrey Archer, Author

n the heels of the international bestseller Only Time Will Tell, Jeffrey Archer picks up the sweeping story of the Clifton Chronicle. Only days before Britain declares war on Germany, Harry Clifton, hoping to escape the consequences of long-buried family secrets, and forced to accept that his desire to marry Emma Barrington will never be fulfilled, has joined the Merchant Navy. But his ship is sunk in the Atlantic by a German U-boat, drowning almost the entire crew. An American cruise liner, the SS Kansas Star, rescues a handful of sailors, among them Harry and the third officer, an American named Tom Bradshaw. When Bradshaw dies in the night, Harry seizes on the chance to escape his tangled past and assumes his identity with.said.

David Garret, Musician arrett’s 2008 album Encore pursues

an aim of arousing young people’s interest in classical music. The release contains arrangements and compositions of his own of pieces and melodies that have accompanied him in his life so far. Together with his band, consisting of keyboard, guitar and drums, he gives concerts that include classical sonatas (accompanied by a concert grand piano), arrangements, and compositions, as well as rock songs and movie themes. In Autumn 2007, Garrett was chosen by the Montegrappa firm (whose articles are distributed by Montblanc throughout the world) as an ambassador for the launch of the new pens from the Tributo ad Antonio Stradivari collection. The event took place in several different venues, including Rome, New York, Hong Kong, Berlin, and in London.

t’s so dull when the first line states that the star arrives wearing “not a scrap of make-up”. I could pretend that Natalie Portman had false eyelashes that fell into her tea and hot-pink lipstick smeared across her cheek as gawpers in this Santa Fe cafe turned to stare.

And the great thing is, she’d probably play along.

I first interviewed Portman, in her home town of Long Island, when she was 16. Now, 10 years on, she is as sweet – and clear-faced – as I remember her.

Back then, after the interview, we almost collapsed in K-Mart when we found promotional toothbrushes bearing her Star Wars image. Today, in Santa Fe, where she is shooting Jim Sheridan’s Brothers, we shop at Wholefoods for ingredients to make vegan cupcakes with the actors who play her and Tobey Maguire’s children. Yes, the girl who became a star in Leon, aged 12, is playing a mum. “I knew how to act like an adult from a really young age. I could turn it on and off. They’d say, ‘She doesn’t seem like a kid, she seems like an adult.’ Now, it kicks me in the butt, and people think, ‘She doesn’t seem like an adult, she seems like a kid.’ ” Portman has close friends who are having kids now, such as the flame-haired actress Bryce Dallas Howard, who, when they were teens at summer camp, played Helena to her Hermia in A Mid summer

ship with Nathan Bogle, the British model and a founder of the Rag & Bone label, whom she politely refuses to talk about. She has consistently declined to talk about any beau, but does say that, as an only child, “I always want to be with someone who has siblings. I will never date another only child”.

She pauses. “But I think I have dated exclusively first children.”

Harvard, which she famously dropped out of Hollywood to attend, is “70% only and first children”, she says, “which makes sense. My career would not have happened if I had brothers or sisters. There’s no way my parents would have allowed one kid to be a star”.

Night’s Dream. Portman feels a while from motherhood herself, though she is in a serious relation

Although quite a few films are now made in this artsy New Mexico town, Portman is the biggest thing to happen to Santa Fe in some time. To begin with, there’s that face – nose, eyebrows, cheekbones and chin of glass – paired with round, soulful eyes and the softest mouth. Because of that face, because of the slender lines of her body, she has the reputation for being the most elegant of young actresses, and, yes,

has a jade cashmere sweater, skinny blue jeans, a check coat that ties smartly at her tiny waist. But she’s also wearing big, green, deeply inelegant wellies, because she has found the cheaper a shoe is, the more likely it is to be vegan. Hence her launch of a shoe line for Te Casan, with all profits going to the Nature Conservancy.

“Basically, I did it out of a lack of choice. Stella McCartney does great shoes, but they’re expensive and very fashiony.

I wanted a mary-jane shoe without leather. I’ve been getting stuff from Target, which is de facto vegan because it’s so cheap. But I did need some shoes that weren’t made of canvas or plastic.”
