Epistolary Books And A Giveaway

by Rechelle ~ November 6th, 2009. Filed under: Life.


The much anticipated sequel to the extraordinarily riveting – Epistolary Books Part 1 – is up at Farmhouse Library. I have named it (trumpets peal) Epistolary Books Part 2! I know, I know, it is hard to see straight for the excitement! For those of you who on principle avoid sequels, can I tempt you with a cameo from Anthony Hopkins?

 

Is there a better actor on the face of the earth?

I think not.

There is a giveaway too!  (Of old, worn, used books… now who can stand to miss that!?!)

Visit Farmhouse Library and become enlightened!

    OH, I loved 84 Charing Cross Road, fabulous film!!!

    I’ve been meaning to tell you also that I watched ARRANGED on your recommendation and I thoroughly enjoyed it. What a great film!

    And The Thirteenth Tale is really, really good, esp if you like the Bronte sisters (dark and brooding; there’s even a moor!”)

    84 Charing Cross Road is one of my all time favorites films for it is so very adult and so very human. I’ve enjoyed visiting your blog.
    All the very best.

    I liked Charing Cross Road (the book) and LOVED Letter from New York. I had no idea Hanff had written so many more books! Thanks for the knowledge, Rechelle. I have to disagree on Charing Cross Rd., the movie, though. I am not at all an Anne Bancroft fan, and it has taken quite some work to remove her bitter voice from my head while reading Hanff’s writing!

    “84 Charing Cross Road” is one of my go-to movies whenever I’m sick and snuffling on the couch. I agree that Anne Bancroft is the lesser light there–how can you compete with the wonder of a restrained Anthony Hopkins (see, also, “Remains of the Day”). For whatever reason, I always remember the quavery old man who comes in looking for the Archimboldo prints. So charming.
