Neil Gaiman’s Stardust is due out any day now, and is already getting great feedback. I read the book recently, and even passed it on to a friend as he headed off to Italy for a month. He read it quickly. I’m hoping - hint, hint - that he’ll acquiese and review it for us here before we’re all spoiled on the film.
Anyway, it’s so short, and really good, so all of you, put down the theology, and the social constructivism, and the Duns Scotus - I won’t even say Harry Potter, since those of you that are still reading or haven’t finished, as Aron says, have bigger problems - go get Stardust from your local library or independent bookstore, and get cracking. You have about 13 hours from now… 16 if you’re Pacific.
From Salon.com: This is a picture that looks to have been made with pleasure, for our pleasure, as opposed to something we’re supposed to be impressed by.
Hint noted, and considered….we’ll see what might be forthcoming…..hint, hint
Those Americans in Italy are subtle people.
