It's no wonder A Place in the Sun has proved hugely popular with viewers over the years. House hunters are shown around beautiful villas and apartments in exotic locations with sunny climates, offering a perfect taste of paradise on our TV screens.

Dorothy Allison, who wrote with lyrical, pungent wit about her working-class Southern upbringing — and about the incest and violence that shaped her — and whose acclaimed 1992 novel, “Bastard Out of Carolina,” based on her harrowing childhood, made her a literary star, died on Tuesday at her home in Guerneville, Calif., in Sonoma County.
