Often these words provide insight into the cultures they come from, such as the Brazilian Portuguese word for running your fingers through a lover's hair, the Italian word for being moved to tears by a story, or the Swedish word for a third cup of coffee.

Rock Paper Scissors is a Rockin’ Fun Time! ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() The greatest French literary masterpiece of all time is now available as a graphic novel. This graphic adaptation reveals the fundamental architecture of Proust's work while displaying a remarkable fidelity to his language as well as the novel's themes of time, art, and the elusiveness of memory. Now, in what renowned translator Arthur Goldhammer says might be "likened to a piano reduction of an orchestral score," the French illustrator Stephane Heuet re-presents Proust in graphic form for anyone who has always dreamed of reading him but was put off by the sheer magnitude of the undertaking. ![]() Proust's oceanic novel In Search of Lost Time looms over twentieth-century literature as one of the greatest, yet most endlessly challenging, literary experiences. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Treece concludes that a recent storm has exposed her cargo of morphine and unearthed a much older wreck containing Spanish treasure. The wreck of the Goliath is considered dangerous and is posted as off-limits to divers due to the danger of explosions. The ampoule contains medicinal morphine from the Goliath, a ship that sank during World War II with a cargo of munitions and medical supplies. ![]() The ampoule is noticed by the man who had rented diving equipment to Sanders and Berke, which in turn attracts the attention of Henri 'Cloche' Bondurant (Louis Gossett, Jr.), a local drug kingpin for whom the shop owner works, who unsuccessfully tries to buy the ampoule and then begins to terrorize the couple with Haitian black magic. Sanders and Berke seek the advice of lighthouse-keeper and treasure-hunter Romer Treece (Robert Shaw) on the origin of the medallion, who identifies the item as Spanish and takes an interest in the young couple. While scuba-diving near shipwrecks off Bermuda, vacationing couple David Sanders (Nick Nolte) and Gail Berke (Jacqueline Bisset) recover a number of artifacts, including an ampoule of amber-colored liquid and a medallion bearing the image of a woman and the letters "S.C.O.P.N." (meaning "Santa Clara, ora pro nobis" or "Saint Clara, pray for us") and a date, 1714. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Why should a woman take back her child, then send her on a long and treacherous journey to a foreign land, alone? I found each time period interesting unlike The Secret Keeper where I just wanted to skip certain parts because the main character in one of the time periods was a dreadful narcissist. In The Forgotten Garden the story moves between 1913, 19. This has been a feature Morton has used in all three books and she does it well. The storyline had a slightly Gothic feel with a smattering of Dicken’s London thrown in which suited those parts of the story where the author did some travelling back in time. The characters were well developed and interesting. I presumed The Forgotten Garden was written later than the other two as it was a much better plot and more smoothly written. ![]() ![]() Mother didn’t understand that children aren’t frightened by stories that their lives are full of far more frightening things than those contained in fairy tales. I didn’t pay any attention to the date of their publication (except that I knew they’d been written in recent times) and just read them as I came across secondhand copies. The other two books were The Lake House (2016) and The Secret Keeper (2012) which I read in that order. The Forgotten Garden is the third book by the Australian author, Kate Morton, that I’ve read and it has been the best of the three. ![]() ![]() The scouting team’s primary goal is to find whatever information they can about the titans with the hope of learning their origins and how they can be eradicated for good. ![]() Eren dreams of joining the scouting team and seeing the outside world. Our story begins with Eren Jäeger, Mikasa Ackerman, and Armin Arlert. ![]() Talk of the outside world is considered taboo and information about the outside world has been outlawed and destroyed. In response to the threat, three 50 meter walls were built, which effectively keep the titans out while keeping the people inside. Many believe their goal is to exterminate humankind, but the reasoning for that is a mystery. Titans have lived 100 years without feeding on people which seems to indicate that they don’t feed on humans to satisfy hunger. ![]() They mindlessly graze on human beings, ignoring all other forms of life in favor of only devouring people. ![]() ![]() Stephen Graham Jones is the New York Times bestselling author of The Only Good Indians. ![]() Indeed, there are nearly 200 film references in this novel, hiding in plain sight, and they are a joy to encounter for horror film aficionados and novices alike. Reviewers in TIME magazine write that “Jones takes grief, gentrification, and abuse to task in a tale that will terrify you and break your heart.” My Heart Is a Chainsaw is a meta-narrative homage to classic slasher films like Scream and Friday the 13th.
