They have a print of that at the University of Minnesota-Duluth in-house gallery. And a bunch of mounty art from a paper towel company’s archives.

I’ve just bought this purely by ‘judging a book by its cover’. It is a lovely looking book, and on first read of the starting chapter, it’s pretty gripping. Thoroughly looking forward to continuing it.

This is Truly beautiful! I thought it an incredible photo at first, but it is even more lovely!

I’ve never read H of Leaves, although I browsed it in the bookstore after some recommendations. It seems like a divisive book—one people either love or hate. When I browsed it it seemed fairly, I dunno, gimmicky, but again, I didn’t read it (although I wasn’t compelled to buy it).

While I’m commenting, I think that this movie is waaaaay too gimmicky—although it has lots of great shots of Derrida talking, which is probably its greatest worth. I think that the filmmakers should’ve relaxed a bit and not tried so hard to use deconstructive techniques, I suppose. It sort of smacks of bad grad school work at times. Still, the film works when they manage to ask D an interesting question.

Are you familar with House of Leaves? The author (wicked too lazy to look up how to spell his last name right now) did work on this documentary.

Comment on Frank Miller Reconsidered by MisterPL

Since when is 55 “very old?” As another fictitious adventurer once said, “It’s not the age, honey, it’s the mileage.” Otherwise you make some interesting observations. I definitely agree that “Ronin” is Miller’s most underrated tale. I’m just not sure that, given how “The Spirit” turned out, his work will taken seriously by many studios.

Comment on Lolita Cover Archive by Hemant

Hemant — Thu, 31 May 2012 13:03:42 +0000

Interesting that author Vladimir Nabokov eldsensly digressed on what was and wasn’t pornography. A moot point should be just that, why tire on about the subject? He states in a letter that his novel is a tragedy. There is nothing of the tragic in Lolita. The protagonist is a muddling, ineffective, fall away man. His particular reality finds him immersed in the ordinary, a book dusty gnat that needs shooing away. There is no tragedy in lust or acting on an urge. To play out a tragedy one needs an epic character or an epochal moment in time so as to frame out the rise and fall. Humbert Humbert is exactly that, two of the same name, two in the crowd and so banal you have to squint to actually see him.
