possession

i've been telling everyone about this book, which i finished in Michigan (and probably wouldn't have finished if Harry had come any earlier). I HIGHLY recommend it if you enjoy literary criticism (or like to laugh at literary critics), if you enjoy Victorian poets, or are delighted by brilliant story crafting.

After i finished it, i learned that it was also made into a movie starring Gwyneth Paltrow. The pleasure of the book was so tied to the words for me, i don't know if i'd like the movie. Although i just noticed on IMDB that the film was directed by Neil LaBute, who is a playwright that i like. I had forgotten he is also a filmmaker.
