This, my loves, is why I love postmodernism so very, very much. Artist + twitter + sunburn + other people's random twitpics = peniscon. Random, fantastic and an absolute delight. I asked a guy I follow on twitter what he thought of the film adaption of Coetzee's Disgrace, a few minutes later I get a DM asking for my email. Ten minutes later, I have a long mail of his thoughts to wallow in. Just, yum. When I'm back at campus, I will indulge myself and scourge the shelves for anything on postmodern theory.

Sharing beautiful thoughts with even more beautiful strangers, Divine! I never heard of a film adaptation of Disgrace though I loved the book. Must google it right now.

Another reason the world is not as bad as people would have it. <3 Go google it, immediately. Malkovich is a very powerful Lurie, and the film is really very good. But it does not deserve to be directly compared to the book; too much of it is thoughts, descriptions and non-trangible, and does not work well on the big screen.
