3.5 stars.

I liked the storyline--as in the arguments and bickering between our two main characters--and how they finally just came around to the idea of being together. It was rather sweet once it got going.

I just didn't understand the "manties" thing. I know people have fetishes but I'm not sure if it's something that would appeal to me to read about. I found it a little strange.

Nevertheless, I liked the characters. They both wanted the other but misconceptions and behaviour got in the way for the past...ten years or so?

"This is a wonderful and very strange movie. I had never heard of it. The man who plays Louis cannot give a convincing line reading, even to the ears of someone who can’t speak French—and yet he is fascinating. I was in his corner from start to finish (which comes unexpectedly—I thought there had to be at least another hour and a half to go when “Fin” came up). Mainly, he just walks in and out of rooms and dresses and undresses. I want to watch it again! What does good acting actually mean? Who is this Tag Gallagher?"

"It took me a while to get into this book but now it is permanently in my heart. I love the convoluted storytelling — the first person narrator, a stranger passing by who stays the night with a bewildering family, dreaming strange dreams. Then the narration switches to the family nurse who tells a story from generations ago, which explains the current circumstances. I also love the wildness of the characters — their jealousies, pains, passions and obsessions — as well as the unabashed antisocialism of the world contained at Wuthering Heights and the love story at the heart of the book"

"Set in the Amazonian rain forest. It’s gothic and funny and strange and profound and outrageous. A female “Heart of Darkness.” Marina, a 42-year-old research scientist from Minnesota goes in search of her formidable old mentor, who has disappeared researching the women of a certain Amazonian tribe who stay fertile into their 80s from eating the hallucinogenic bark of a magical tree. As well as everything else, it’s an exploration of what it is to be a woman who’s getting older. And it makes that particular state seem more wonderful than it usually seems"
