well, i find myself sat with something of a quandary at the moment. i am reading, and immensley enjoying, the novel The Prestige bu Christopher Priest. it has a rather elsuive plot trick which i suspect i may have clocked, and the narrative style is the closest i have ever seen to a full blown tribute to Faulkener's The Sound And The Fury.
i do, however, also very much wish to watch the film adaptation of this novel, as it has a most excellent cast and director. i am now sat with a copy of the film. hmn, what to do??not really much of a debate i suppose - i shall press on with the novel, although that's being unfair as i really am very much enjoying reading it!!
will try to give you my thoughts and views on both when i have digested both, then! it is my birthday this weekend, so i may just treat myself by kicking back and reading it as and when James goes off for a nap, or goes off chasing the cats and otherwise causing mayhem.
what else can i say? be most excellent to each other!!!!!!!!!!!!
