The first book she gave out was "Fahrenheit 451", and her first large-scale introduction was "Lolita". Books can know people, and people who read books are never alone.

    A Courageous Attempt

    The movie was shot beatifully, with the scenes feeling like taken directly from the British oil paintings, with the blue skyline converging to the sea, the wavering grass, the shore line, the old and beaten-down castle.
