Uh, Trell, but these Lilium at six in the afternoon on a Sunday, while you're reading Corman McCarthy, the sun is setting, the woman you don't desire is gone, the one you do desire you have no fucking idea where she is, but you know you can't call her, aren't they all quite nice? Thanks for the heads up.

I just hope that Tom Barman, in his more cat-like persona, doesn't come all the way to my house; otherwise, I’ll let the dog go.

@Trell, that’s what I was hoping for, I just want sex from you. Anyway, I don’t read it either.
Gino D'Eliso Ti Ricordi Vienna?
Voto:
I guess I should remember it, since both Isi and Super do. But I really don’t remember it at all. Vienna yes. P.S.: are you organizing a Meet without telling me anything? You bastards!

But MissBlinky is the illegitimate daughter of Sfascia and Trell?
Richard Yates Revolutionary Road
Voto:
Great recommendation for an author not very well-known in Italy, who might be rediscovered thanks to Mendes. Three stars might be a bit few; I arrive at 3.5 and round up.
Francesco Fagioli Un Certo Senso
Voto:
Great suggestion... if only I had the time to read everything I find interesting... P.S. I'm feeling pretty dull too, and I really don't get this DeRanked thing...
Friedrick Durrenmatt Il Giudice e il Suo Boia
Voto:
It seems to me that there is a challenge, within the interiors, regarding the ability to say the essential in a few lines. A challenge that so far seems to be mastered by all the reviewers. To this, I prefer Durrenmatt's La Promessa and a few stories. Could one also use the term "post-modern ante litteram?" I was observing, precisely in the ophthalmological review of "La Promessa," how, as you also note, the thriller in the Swiss writer is, detection... but the discussion would take us too far.
Michel Houellebecq La Ricerca della Felicità
Voto:
As they used to say in these parts, chapeau! Here we are, from De Filippi to Houellebecq. To tell you how I'm doing, just yesterday afternoon I managed to read the two pages of anticipation that the cultural section of Corriere had published about a month ago and that I had set aside. So, for the moment, I’m also giving it a four, trusting.

Well, let's hope for the best...the album comes out on October 28, I think. Since you're speaking well of it, why only three stars?
