• Café Life is the Colony's main hangout, watering hole and meeting point.

    This is a place where you'll meet and make writing friends, and indulge in stratospherically-elevated wit or barometrically low humour.

    Some Colonists pop in religiously every day before or after work. Others we see here less regularly, but all are equally welcome. Two important grounds rules…

Plot: A wife questions her life choices as she travels to Stockholm with her husband, where he is slated to receive the Nobel Prize for Literature.



A wife is actually the writer, but it's her husband's name on the books. How did this come about? What's she going to do about it now 'he' has won the Nobel prize for Literature, while telling people his wife is his muse, but she doesn't write? A love story, despite all. Did I like it? There's no one to warm to, so not exactly, but it's always interesting, the bargains people make with themselves. This wife is angry, but it was her who created this situation, and entrapped them both. She is not a victim.
