Book Favorite

"There comes the night when K is invited into a room in the Castle where he is repeatedly offered the answer to the quest which the narrative has set out to deny him, but this Is the moment in which he is overcome by the need to close his eyes and go to sleep, which he does. If this strikes you as not only true but inevitable in the world as you know it, Kafka is your man."

Never give up, never surrender!

The best not Star Trek Star Trek film, where the washed up stars of an old TV show (the Galaxy Quest of the title) - think 1960s Star Trek - are mistaken for the real thing by actual aliens, and brought aboard their space ship (modelled after that from the TV show), in order to negotiate a ceasefire against their foe.

Worth watching for Alan Rickman's Dr Lazarus alone, never mind Sigourney Weaver or Tim Allen...

This tells the story of Clover, her Dad, and Clovers' quest to create a museum of her Mum. Clover has never known her Mum - she died when she was a baby. She knows nothing of the circumstances and her Dad doesn't seem to want to talk about it. He hasn't thrown any of her Mum's belongings away, they're all in the bedroom they used to share. And so Clover begins to construct her museum... Great, rounded characters throughout.
