Recommendation meme attempt!


I would love to hear from each and every person inclined one

1. Book (or story or poem or comic or collected works of an author or anything otherwise printed or printable)

2. Movie (or tv show or youtube video or otherwise viewable)

and

3. Song (or album or symphony or whistle or otherwise hearable)

that they wished many more people understood were wonderful, or maybe more wonderful than they already thought.


Got none of my own this time, just fishing for new experiences or productive revisions of old ones.

1. Post-Exoticism in Ten Lessons, Lesson Eleven and Writers, both by Antoine Volodine, are being published in translation this year. Monomaniacal of me, I know, but there it is. I have electronic copies of both but haven't been able to stand to read them, Englished. I'm not even sure these were the best choices of what to translate. And yet I hope more people will start to appreciate Volodine.

2. Queen Margot? But probably not your cup of tea.

3. I'm in a very un-musical phase now--Windows 8 broke my computer's microphone/speaker jack, and most of my music didn't make the transition from the old broken Windows 7 computer anyway.

Was just today thinking of that movie, wondering how it would hold up. It was walking a fine line between restoring bodies to history and bodice-ripping, as I recall.
