UNREQUITED LOVE, UNDERAGE DRINKING, AND TEEN ANGST RULE AT A HIGH SCHOOL FOR MUTANTS AND WITCHES
Jill Tamaki’s graphic-novel-that-started-as-an-adorable-web-series, and a truly delightful read. So much hilarious teen angst! So many magical moments!
An enthralling literary debut that tells the story of a young girl’s coming of age in the cutthroat world of New York City ballet—a story...
This was the perfect curl-up-and-read-all-day sick day book. A thoroughly compelling glimpse into an ordinary family - and an impossibly glamorous world - and tenuous middle age.
Directed by Grímur Hákonarson. With Sigurður Sigurjónsson, Theodór Júlíusson, Charlotte Bøving, Jon Benonysson. In a remote Icelandic farming valley, two brothers who haven't spoken in 40 years have to come together in order to save what's dearest to them - their sheep.
With A on a relaxed Sunday afternoon. A funny, dark, moving film. Highly recommended.
Directed by Anthony Russo, Joe Russo. With Chris Evans, Robert Downey Jr., Scarlett Johansson, Sebastian Stan. Political interference in the Avengers' activities causes a rift between former allies Captain America and Iron Man.
This was a fun Friday night film with J, J and B. Note: not an 1860s period drama.
Directed by Jeff Nichols. With Michael Shannon, Joel Edgerton, Kirsten Dunst, Jaeden Lieberher. A father and son go on the run, pursued by the government and a cult drawn to the child's special powers.
A tightly plotted, deeply silly film. With J, P and P in Newtown on a pleasant Saturday.
The first full season of a TV show I’ve watched this year; the perfect way to spend a self-indulgent Saturday alone.
What a tale. The plot can be summarised as a continuous cycle of lawsuits leading to murderous blood feuds leading to lawsuits, etc, sometimes interrupted by winter, when everyone went home and stayed there. I guess winters in Iceland during the medieval cold period were pretty bitter. Also, at some point everyone converted to Christianity, which meant there was the occasional pilgrimage to Rome.
Wuthering Heights is a wild, passionate story of the intense and almost demonic love between Catherine Earnshaw and Heathcliff, a foundli...
I read this very slowly, mainly with text-to-voice, because it was the only way I could force myself through this ghastly tale. Dark and violent, filled with unlikeable, melodramatic characters - yet not unhopeful that suffering and cruelty may be transcended.
From the best-selling author of Fun Home, Time magazine’s No. 1 Book of the Year, a brilliantly told graphic memoir of Alison Bechdel bec...
The follow up to Fun Home, one of the best books I read last year. This instalment of Bechdel's graphic memoirs is denser and more inward-looking than the last, interspersing her mother's story with psychoanalytic theory and her own therapy sessions. It packs fewer punches but made me think more...
Directed by Luca Guadagnino. With Dakota Johnson, Ralph Fiennes, Matthias Schoenaerts, Tilda Swinton. The vacation of a famous rock star and a filmmaker is disrupted by the unexpected visit of an old friend and his daughter.
With E at Newtown on a hot Saturday evening. It was dreamy and intriguing.
Free kindle book and epub digitized and proofread by Project Gutenberg.
One of the first books I have read entirely electronically. Thanks, public domain! An utterly fascinating and compelling classic; perhaps my new favourite book.
Het bewogen leven van Vincent van Gogh blijft een onuitputtelijke inspiratiebron. Stripmaker Barbara Stok neemt in dit verhaal de lezer m...
An excellent entry in the art-biography-as-graphic-novel genre. Read in the heat on a Sunday.
Directed by Duke Johnson, Charlie Kaufman. With David Thewlis, Jennifer Jason Leigh, Tom Noonan. A man crippled by the mundanity of his life experiences something out of the ordinary.
At Newtown with J. It was… sweet and thought-provoking but not a ground breaking flight of imagination.
Fascinating. Also short. All the best qualities in a political history!
This award-winning graphic biography of Pablo Picasso (1881–1973) captures the prolific and eventful life of one of the world’s best-love...
Devoured on a hot and muggy Sunday afternoon at home.
Directed by Yorgos Lanthimos. With Jacqueline Abrahams, Roger Ashton-Griffiths, Jessica Barden, Olivia Colman. In a dystopian near future, single people, according to the laws of The City, are taken to The Hotel, where they are obliged to find a romantic partner in forty-five days or are transformed into beasts and sent off into The Woods.
At Golden Age cinema after work, with L and Z. Loved.
There are seven billion people in the world. This is the story of two of them. After an unfortunate incident in an airport lounge involv...
A pure delight. Perfect weekend reading. Prompted much Solomons-nostalgia and laughter and some sadness. Recommended!
