Music, books and films.

Would I ever stop buying things?
.......Maybe not. Maybe never...........

*Beneath The Surface Vol4 - A Bella Union Sampler
Especially Black Ice by Ohbijou (such a beautiful website!) and Keep you eyes on the road by Paul Marshall are so so beautiful that I find myself listening to them again and again....
"staring at your innocent skin wondering how I fucked this up but I surely did"
.... Mr Paul Marshall, could you be my best friend please??

Another Murakami book.... addition to my Murakami collection...

*The Flaming Green Tree Trilogy, Kenzaburo Oe
I've just started reading this and already liking it. This is the second book I read by this author (the first was The Changelling which was also good). I normally don't like award-winning types of writings but am finding his work really personal and fascinating... makes me want to visit Shikoku next time I go back to Japan....hmmmm maybe not. Maybe it's better to leave it in my imagination...hmmmm...

*Confession, Ko Machida
This is the most entertaining book out of all my recent purchases but my least favourite too. Maybe because I like to live in metaphors and this is a bit too straight-forward directly into your face... maybe I like "reading between lines" too much. Maybe a few too many maybes when I talk about my love of things haha. But when I like something, I can't even explain why I like it sometimes... just like everyone else I hope?

Beautiful film. Girls of that age are so sharp and fragile...
I think the director is the wife of Gasper Noe. I'm sorry if I'm wrong. His earlier films such as canon and carne are also amazing... Irreversible is a bit too strong for me. I went to see it by myself and cried in a cinema in the middle of the film. How naive.

*A box set of 3 films by Leos Carax, which doesn't include my favourite Les amants du Pont-Nuef!! eeeeee!!! But still, I like his other films too.

Sigh..... I will go bankrupt soon.....I really shouldn't have gone to Fopp. London trapppppppppp......
