This course is a survey of spy thriller fiction published between 1880 and 2000. It sets the books in their historical context and shows how their depiction of Russian/Soviet characters as heroes or as villains reflects the politics of the time in which the books were published. Spy thrillers also document our own social history and reveal many important and/or quirky issues for us to think about. For instance, why were so few thrillers with Russian settings or characters published during the world wars when Russia/the Soviet Union was our ally?
This course is offered in-person at the EarthDiverse Centre in Hamilton, New Zealand on Wednesdays from 11:00am-1:00pm (NZ time) beginning 3 August, or on-line (live-streamed) via Zoom from anywhere in the world. Some representative time zone equivalents are:
• Honolulu, Hawai’i: 1:00-3:00pm, Tue 2 Aug
• US Pacific: 4:00-6:00pm, Tue 2 Aug
• US Eastern: 7:00-9:00pm, Wed 3 Aug
• London, UK: 12:00-2:00am, Wed 3 Aug

Many a foreign object can flick onto the surface of the wallpapers in your home, ranging from food to crayon to fly spray, and like any textile, wallpapers need a little bit of love every now and then. A regular wipe down with a clean cloth should keep dust and marks at bay, however, there are times when there may be the need for a deeper clean.
To better understand how to care for your wallcoverings we need to first discuss the different types of wallpapers on the market and their cleaning durability. The main three classifications are:
1. Scrubbable
Generally heavy vinyl’s, these types of wallcoverings are suited to higher trafficc areas as they can withstand scrubbing to remove stains and dirt more effectively.
2. Washable
Coated papers (light weight vinyl) would fall into this category, a mild detergent and water can be used to occasionally wipe surface of wallcovering. They are unsuitable for high traffic areas due to light cleaning and inability to remove stains or contaminants without damage.
