In patients with chronic interstitial nephritis in agricultural communities, older patients are more susceptible to complications. Delays in diagnosis and treatment worsen the condition. Renal insufficiency is a common manifestation that ultimately progresses to end-stage renal disease. The inflammatory interstitium is completely replaced by fibrosis, and severe degeneration of tubular epithelial cells induces irreversible renal impairment necessitating early renal dialysis and renal transplantation. Some complications are neurologic (reflex alterations in the early stage), auditive (hypoacusis), and vascular lesions in the lower limbs.[4]

A collection of nine stories from the forties and fifties, only one of which Maigret in Retirement I had read before, and then was just as confounded by the outcome. All are great. Seven Little Crosses in a Notebook, Maigret and the Surly Inspector, The Evidence of the Altar Boy, The Most Obstinate Customer in the World, Death of a Nobody, Sale by Auction, The Man in the Street, as well as the title track.
This is Lynda La Plante at her very best. From 1993. With Jane Tennison, by now inseparable from Helen Mirren, this is what she does best;. revealing the sexism and the racism in the police and the general hatred of the easily misled public for them, manipulated by both Press and Politicians. Short, sharp sentences, mainly action and dialogue, she tells the tale with great skill. Highly readable.
A retired Maigret is drawn into a strange world by an eccentric old lady. Told at great pace and with great drive, it is amazing how much plot he gets out of pure dialogue and character. Unexpected and thrilling.
Another challenging title from the wonderful Dave Eggers. This one is actually a play. Written entirely in dialogue, it is the conversations of a psychotic loser who kidnaps people he wants to talk to. Fascinating and funny and black. I wonder if he did write it as a play but it certainly works as a novel, stripped bare of all description, so that character and action are both revealed through dialogue.
I very much enjoyed this novel about a soul-less scoundrel who becomes a star and even a better person through fame. His dialogue is terrific, and the psychology of sex seems both modern and accurate. Surprisingly good.
The fine play, with wonderful dialogue about a newly promoted studio exec and the fight over his soul by his friend and rival and a temp secretary who almost wins him to art before crap wins out. A dialogue of the virtues and vices of cinema.
Despite his rather irritating use of multi-viewpoint first person narrative, so you are never quite sure who is speaking at first, and his refusal to use quotation marks for dialogue, this is still an effective novel, that draws together a difficult story, essentially a mystery murder, trial and Washington expose mix. Some nice digs at the shallow race who inhabit the chat waves and the superficial level of the coverage of complex stories on a sexually obsessed media. 2ff7e9595c
