Alice chases the White Rabbit down a rabbit hole and encounters a world of delightfully eccentric characters like the Mad Hatter, the March Hare, the Cheshire Cat, the Mock Turtle, and the Queen of Hearts. This enduring and evocative tale can be read on many levels and enjoyed by adults and children alike.

“What a delight to hear Michael York’s rendition of this classic. His distress at Alice’s predicaments humanizes a character who has become a near stereotype over the decades…. York’s elegant accents highlight Carroll’s wordplay and the tangles it makes of Alice’s distorted reality. His cameos of the hurried White Rabbit and dreamy-voiced, hookah-smoking Caterpillar are sound. Especially riveting is the Queen of Hearts, with her imperious shout—’Off with their heads!’ As Alice explores Wonderland, York is a superb guide.

Review: Midnight Sun (Twilight from Edward Cullen’s perspective)

March 18th, 2009 |

midnight-sunRecommended for: Twilighters and those who think Twilight is too girly or that Edward always has things under control.

My hope: That MS might be included in the Official Guide that keeps getting pushed farther and farther back.

[This really should be a letter to Stephenie but with no way for average humans to reach her, I share my thoughts about Midnight Sun (as integral to the whole Twilight saga) with all who have interest in this book!]
First, thank you Stephenie for making the MS partial draft available to those of us who already LOVE your work, even though it was a painful thing and time to do so.  Most if not all of us desire its completion EVEN you totally rewrite what you’ve done so far. We love your characters, YOUR writing, your methods of unraveling stories; we are not so bonded to what you first wrote so far with this story that we can’t bend.  The perspectives and experiences you write into Edward’s life allow us to bond with him better from the start. And we learn so much more of the Cullen family atmosphere and relationships. I already adored Bella from weakness and insecurity to strength determination and valor she gains along the way.  So MS helped me see Edward’s struggles, his true devotion, charm and integrity.

Best Comprehensive Interview with Robert Pattinson (Twilight)

November 22nd, 2008 |

Rob hasn’t always been comfortable or prepared for interviews and who could be with them flying at you from all directions in the street, alleys, studios…  But this is without a doubt the most in depth, thoughtful and seemingly honest interview I’ve seen with Robert Pattinson.  He is very at ease, not rushed and the interviewer gives him not only good questions but lots of room to respond, think and reply completely to.  So often they talk over him just about the time he’s decided what he wants to say.  He is thoughtful so he likes to think through answers and they don’t normally wait for him.  This one is awesome and you really get to know him better.  check it out:  http://link.brightcove.com/services/link/bcpid1591583455/bctid1906945203
