Hello TOK people, Here is a wonderful story that you will want to run through google-translate: https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__www.dr.dk_mitliv_lukas-2Dpaa-2D16-2Dflyttede-2Dind-2Dhos-2Dkult-2Dduo-2Dsussi-2Dog-2Dleo-2Dblev-2Dhans-2Dredning&d=DwICaQ&c=eLbWYnpnzycBCgmb7vCI4uqNEB9RSjOdn_5nBEmmeq0&r=HPo1IXYDhKClogP-UOpybo6Cfxxz-jIYBgjO2gOz4-A&m=7En6yIs8JO07livqWVakyquNlNc1Hf6WC2dCHny-VTg&s=K7BubBXbdH7-ZPwk0tKYuXEPEdcwFrkrEgGXvFB1uGc&e= - the original language is Danish. In short: 13-year-old + mother with depression move in with the mother's uncle and his wife: Leo and Susi, who have no children of their own. They live on a farm and there is always plenty to do. Susi makes the mother get out of bed everyday and puts her to work in the fresh air. After two years, the mother is happy, gets a job, plays at the local amateur theater and starts thinking about getting a house of her own. What makes the story extra sweet and remarkable from a Danish perspective is that Susi and Leo are a pop-duo who gives 100 concerts across Denmark per year and the boy travels with them. "Susi and Leo" is kitsch with kitsch on it and they can barely carry a tune https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__www.youtube.com_watch-3Fv-3DF4dADMWcNYs&d=DwICaQ&c=eLbWYnpnzycBCgmb7vCI4uqNEB9RSjOdn_5nBEmmeq0&r=HPo1IXYDhKClogP-UOpybo6Cfxxz-jIYBgjO2gOz4-A&m=7En6yIs8JO07livqWVakyquNlNc1Hf6WC2dCHny-VTg&s=75dFP1wGKIp2lZsGH4sIhgR80h4qa4NRI5I7_GE0Rrw&e= , but their concerts are hugely popular. Chances are that Danes with good taste will experience severe cognitive dissonance reading the story. :-) / Lene ############################ To unsubscribe from the TOK-SOCIETY-L list: write to: mailto:[log in to unmask] or click the following link: http://listserv.jmu.edu/cgi-bin/wa?SUBED1=TOK-SOCIETY-L&A=1
