Sad but Warming Watch
Love this film, perfect Sunday afternoon viewing. Right of passage story with fantastic added fiction shorts that stay with you for a good while after the film has finished.

At times it might seem to ramble on to long about something seemingly unimportant, but it is a surprising and riveting read. Hardly a "feel-good" book, but anyone who likes dark, twisty fiction should enjoy it.

Book Favorite

"Only a few works of fiction can reasonably be called “perfect,” and this is one of them. There’s a crystalline purity to the prose, and a wintry sadness in the story. It gets deep in your bones."

Book Favorite

"Miller’s new novel “Circe,” is in the best tradition of ancient-historical fiction—a worthy heir to Mary Renault. It's a fabulous novelistic response to “The Odyssey,” and a timely book about power, abuse, parenting and home."

In this short non-fiction piece, Ozeki takes on the Zen exercise of staring at her face for three hours. Read my review of this interesting memoir here https://tcl-bookreviews.com/2015/08/18/facing-three-hours/
