More On “The Forever War”

Last week I mentioned that I was reading The Forever War and that I wanted to hear from Richard K. Morgan about it. Richard just got back to me via Pete:

When I finished The Forever War I actually thought to myself that this is the best book I’ve ever read. Whether it is or not is irrelevant. The book is amazing.

From Richard:

Yeah, The Forever War is great. Haldeman was really there, he served as a combat engineer in Vietnam, was injured in the fighting and invalided home. The book’s a brilliant metaphor for veteran dislocation. I met Joe in Gijon a couple of years ago, along with his wife Gay – really lovely couple.

There you have it.

Courtney’s Movie Reviews: City of Ember & The Dark Knight

City of Ember

(2008)

Directed by Gil Kenan

If I was nine years old when I saw this I wouldn’t have thought it was a piece of shit, I’d have thought it was a piece of poo.

The Dark Knight

(2008)

Directed by Christopher Nolan

Every scene Heath wasn’t in made me wish he was.

Love Is The New New England

Oh Boston. On the NE coast these guys were such an infestation that they just went ahead and fed them to the local prison inmates…. Without drawn butter.
