Excellent true crime adaptation: Under the Banner of Heaven
-- Started watching UNDER THE BANNER OF HEAVEN - I’m a big fan of creator Dustin Lance Black and I read Jon Krakauer's seriously disturbing true crime book several years ago.So far it’s an excellent adaptation, leaning toward the existential horror of TRUE DETECTIVE in the depiction of this true and truly existential crime. Riveting from the start – Andrew Garfield is perfectly cast as the ea Read more of this blog post »

“But yield who will their separation,
My object in living is to unite
My avocation and my vocation
As my two eyes make one in sight.
Only where love and need are one,
And the work is play for mortal stakes,
Is the deed ever really done
For Heaven and the future's sakes.”

“and Ashbury, looking up at a stopped clock atop one of the buildings, forever fixed at 4:20. She turns toward the next street . . . and sees a For Rent sign. The street address is 420. She shoulders her bag and walks toward it. The manager of 420 is a going-on-elderly Indian man with hazy eyes who has not the slightest interest in her; he is off on some distant plane of his own and will never be able to describe her even if he ever feels a desire to. He shows her”

“He didn’t even attempt to guess at what that delusion might be. He knew at the heart of it there was nothing poetic or metaphorical about it. The core motivation for all serial killers was the same: they got sexual release from rape, torture, pain, and murder. There was no other “why.” Trying to wrap it up in some elaborate psychological package was less than useless. Aloud he continued, “Also it’s notable”

Wonderful to hear from you! These are weird times and we’re staying safe. You be well!
Hey Tamara - you've got one of my favorite names! Tamara wrote: "Hi Alexandra and thanks for your friendship :)"
Hi Alexandra and thanks for your friendship :)
Mourning the loss of Robin Williams. Like anyone that supremely talented, he belonged to everyone. But especially for artists of any kind, he was a living lesson on >presence< and going straight to the edge. He made me want to be better, and to be true. An incomparable loss.
Gary, I'm so glad you liked it! Thanks so much for letting me know. And I'm sorry to be so late responding - it always takes me forever to find where Goodreads hides these comments! :)Gary wrote: "Hey Alexandra:

Oh Alex you don't know what you've been missing, been stonking here in sunny sunny Britain for a couple of days.
Scotland is great but OHHHH am I enjoying the California sun....
Friday the 13th Honey Moon tonight. Sounds pretty spectacular. http://sploid.gizmodo.com/no-human-ha...
Hey Alexandra:Just finished Blood Moon and I have to say it was an amazing read. I have read all of your books so far and eagerly await the next one. You are fast becoming my favorite author. Thanks for all the hours of reading enjoyment you are providing.
Hey Melissa - how great to hear from you! I DO remember, you were a welcome flash of Berkeley (in my mind) in the South. Glad to see you here!
Hey Alexandra...Thanks for accepting my friend request.
Thanks for accepting my request Alexandra! I'm looking forward to reading your reviews and recommendations, and maybe have a little fun comparing notes!
