Flying Taliban Monkeys
While I think this concept has the possibility of being cute and cuddly, one of my Facebook friends thinks otherwise and I quote: "America has been waging war for nearly a decade and our enemy is getting their battle plans from the Wizard of Oz. Maybe they can teach them to fly?"

The People's Daily? Hmm.

Another McEwan novel comes alive

If they could film Atonement and now Chesil Beach (/hyper happiness), they can do something of Sebald's. Particularly this. And I'd like Hoffman (as in Dustin) or Von Sydow to play Jacques, although it always ends up being Hopkins. Why? I'm biased, as my college thesis revolved around this novel, but as I earned the top score of that year for my dissection, I'm sure there are others who can easily explain that it's not just a confusing story with too many flashbacks, obscure references and very little indentation.
