Originally published in Sweden, this charming debut novel by Backman should find a ready audience with English-language readers. A blurry, ambitious cluster of themes, then, never coming into focus-or rising above the murder-melodrama format. Moreover, Smiley doesn't seem to know this world first-hand: details and dialogue lack authentic edges. But, unlike Barn Blind and At Paradise Gate, this novel is layered with artificial situations and implausible motivations-from Alice's tortured friendships to Susan's much-belabored murder motive (which relates to the undeveloped theme of the rock band's non-celebrity). Smiley extracts a few shrewd effects from the quiet, naturalistic approach to violence and grief: there's ironic, credible emphasis on what everybody eats and wears. until a longwinded finale (Susan stalks Alice, Susan confesses), paves the way for a tinny, happy fadeout. ("Nonetheless, Alice knew that her adoration of her friend, and her anticipation of lasting, comfortable intimacy was greater than ever.") So this disturbing knowledge will mess up the Henry relationship. But then, while Noah is indeed arrested, Alice suddenly, intuitively knows that Susan committed the murders. ("Well, doesn't all of this seem weird to you? The patterns of our lives formed twelve years ago! And they didn't basically change until now!") Alice also finds time to fall in love-cute talk, earnest sex-with botanist/neighbor Henry, even if (for unconvincing reasons) she can't bear to tell him about the murders. Whodunit? Was it another band-member, druggie Noah Mast, whose wife was sleeping with the charismatic, volatile Craig? Did something go wrong with a cocaine-selling deal arranged by another old pal, homosexual sound-man Ray? Or was the killer one of the many other people who had keys to the Denny/Craig/Susan apartment? Alice, a quiet type uncomfortable at the center of the ensuing tensions, mulls these possibilities, raking over past relationships-often in numbing conversations with strong, glamorous Susan. The shocked discoverer of the bodies: Susan's best friend Alice Ellis-librarian, ex-wife of poet/prof Jim, and the novel's moody heroine.
(Not unlike The Big Chill set-up, but without the charm.) Denny Minehart and Craig Shellady, brother-like leaders of a not-quite-famous rock band, are found dead in the apartment they've shared for years with Denny's longtime lover, boutique-manager Susan Gabriel. Note that key fields can’t be changed after an Eas圜atalog panel is created.Smiley, a gifted novelist of family-relations ( Born Blind, At Paradise Gate), goes murkily astray this time-in a Manhattan murder-mystery that probes, with talky stiffness, the inter-relations among an unappealing group of old Minnesota college friends, now all early-30s New Yorkers. In catalogs where a product can appear in the catalog more than once then you need a better way to reference each record – adding a unique record for each product instance, or if this is not possible then utilising a composite key (possibly combining your primary and secondary category fields with the product code).
#Duplicate keys code
In a simple catalog where each product is included in the catalog only once then the key can be set to the Product Code / SKU field. It does this by referencing one or more fields as a “key”. How Eas圜atalog uses a key fieldĮas圜atalog requires a way of uniquely identifying records on the page.

(We will add more information regarding how to transfer across your existing custom fields and configurations in a separate tutorial). If this is not possible then you will need to re-create your Eas圜atalog panel and choose more fields to uniquely identify each record. If possible, change the record within the data to remove the duplicate.
Investigate which record is duplicate using this key info supplied in dialogue. The error message will return the first duplicate record it finds, along with the values for the one or more key fields delimited between the pipe (|) character. Having this message return means that your records are no longer unique – whether you are using a single key or composite key (made up of multiple fields). This error message is returned when you try to load or synchronise data containing one of more duplicates to your Eas圜atalog panel.
