I liked ALIAS GRACE and particularly Grace Marks' (Sarah Gadon) character, her composure and the way she delivered her dialogue. Some of these Netflix originals are well plotted and shot. Now I want to read Margaret Atwood's book and draw comparisons.Prashant C.

I watched Alias Grace as coincidentally I'd been given a copy of the book earlier in the year and loved it - the six part adaptation kept relatively close to the book too, probably because Margaret Atwood was keeping an eye on everything.<br />Have a wonderful 2018 full of books, games and writing and hopefully less stress on the commute and work front.Cleopatra Loves Bookshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15752724698249497274noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1169151311037688512.post-26669060595592948972018-01-01T05:09:57.494-08:002018-01-01T05:09:57.494-08:00Thank you, Margot.

I'm familiar with minimalism as a living principle because it is ingrained in most Indian spiritual culture. Reading about minimalism is easy, practicing it is not. Prashant C.

I have one of the books by the guys who wrote Minimalism. I haven't read much of it yet but I thought it would be inspiring to read. I agree, nothing new in the basic idea of "less is more".TracyKhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08303342674824383688noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1169151311037688512.post-15272272916544242052017-12-31T08:40:07.222-08:002017-12-31T08:40:07.222-08:00Happy New Year, Prashant.
