"I love this morbid and mischievous book! The story traces how a man commits murder by indulging in his greatest obsession: his sense of smell.

The book explores and uncovers the drive for the unattainable."

"I loved Drive. Drive is one of my favorites, actually. Yeah, I would put that down. Stylistically, it was like nothing I’d seen in a while. The soundtrack is one of the best soundtracks ever — I loved the soundtrack — and the way that he directed that; there are so many interesting directorial choices there. Ryan Gosling and Carey Mulligan — their falling in love with each other, the kiss that is in that movie in the elevator, and then the violence that proceeds right after that. And it’s one of the most amazing movie kisses ever because you kind of sense that this thing is coming right afterwards, and it’s so, so brutal. There are so many elements of that movie that I think are really, really well done. Great movie."
