From far, from eve and morning

After a complete and surprising failure to find anything by E.M. Forster in a used book store in the Boston area—I can only conclude he is beloved and never put up for sale—I gave up and bought A Room with a View (1908) from the Harvard Coop this afternoon; Maurice is next. Tomorrow, Eric and I see Låt den rätte komma in (2008) at the Kendall.

Happy birthday, [livejournal.com profile] nineweaving!

Interesting. I would've figured Forster would be on enough syllabi that used copies would circulate, at least of his more famous novels. Perhaps it's the time of year, and most of them are in students' hands?

I just Googled the Swedish movie--it sounds interesting. Enjoy!

It was incredible. Go see it!

Excellent! I'll keep an eye out to see if it shows up round here.
