![]() Awakening $14.99 If you were disappointed by it's predecessor Zombie Night, then maybe this one is still worth a chance to you. If you even remotely liked Zombie Night then you will love this... it's ten times better!!! Sure it's not the greatest Zombie movie out there, but it's more than half way up the scale. An excellent soundtrack, decent actors (compared to Zombie Night), some excellent action and cool zombies make this at least a once see for zombie fans... Watch the Making Of feature, especially if you plan on watching the third installment in the trilogy REEL ZOMBIES. ![]() Awakening $25.95 The book started off slow, but it builds up to a point that I could not put down at all. I wished I had the weekend to read the book in one sitting. I finished, and I could not wait to get her other book. She is a great writer, and the plot is full of twist. I was not able to guess the ending. The ending is full of surprise. I love this book. I hope she will write more. ![]() Awakenings $16.00 Well written and understandable. I love how Oliver Sacks did the time sequencing to better understand the progression of his patients. I loved this book. ![]() The Awakening (Norton Critical Editions) $5.82 This small volume reads like a lazy afternoon on a balmy day in the Big Easy. This is the story of a young woman, Edna, married, with two small boys, who begins to sense an unfolding yearning within herself, which she is unsure how to fulfill. When the book was written in 1899, it was considered scandalous and avant-garde, garnering scathing reviews. By today's standards it is slow and undulating, barely shocking, and somewhat slow paced, considering what Edna undertakes as she tries to reconcile her longings with social convention. This book takes one back to an era when literature relied on style, language and imagery to provoke a reader. It is a tight psychological journey, which may leave you thoughtful rather than breathless. |
