I didn't especially like The Copper Elephant. I think it was his description of the girl's first period that made me not like it. Red jellyfishes... ugh. But I really liked Little Chicago. Unfortunately, those are the only two my campus library has. And the public library doesn't have any.

"`I grow old... I grow old... I shall wear the bottoms of my trousers rolled.` What does that mean, Mr. Marlowe?" "Not a bloody thing. It just sounds good." He smiled. "That is from the `Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock.` Here's another one. `In the room women come and go/Talking of Michael Angelo.' Does that suggest anything to you, sir?" "Yeah -- it suggests to me that the guy didn't know very much about women." "My sentiments exactly, sir. Nonetheless I admire T. S. Eliot very much." "Did you say, 'nonetheless'?" - The Long Goodbye by Raymond Chandler

I'm assuming it's an indie film? If so, that makes me very happy to have our fanulous little indepent movie theater right down the street.
Do you know what it's about?

it was at sundance a while ago.
from imdb.com:

Actress Reese Holden (Deschanel) has been offered a small fortune by a book editor if she can secure for publication the love letters that her father (Harris), a reclusive novelist, wrote to her mother, who has since passed away. Returning to Michigan, Reese finds that an ex-grad student (Warner) and a would-be musician (Ferrell) have moved in with her father, who cares more about his new friends than he does about his own health and well-being.

Random, but how many siblings does Anthony have?

#1214

The Other Adam

Posted: 1/27/06 at 3:20pm

Well, they do have a sister as well, so Adam's not like the only other Rapp. Just the only other Rapp that would have a fan following

Did anyone else here read Faster?

Abba, then can you explain it to me? I was so confused after I read it. Then I asked Anthony and even HE wasn't helpful!

Awww, I feel left out. Now there's yet another reason to read Adam's work.

I was wondering where the hell this thread went. Hooray for... offtopicness?

I haven't read Adam's work yet, but it's on my long list of things to read over the summer.
