Run With The Hunted

I recently read Charles Bukowski's fiction and poetry anthology Run With The Hunted. Bukowski is probably my favorite writer, and this anthology is a powerful demonstration of what makes his depiction of isolation and suffering so great. Bukowski is the ultimate antihero, and his stories harken back to experiences that I and many readers have faced. I highly recommend this book as the perfect starting point for Bukowski! 

Once Upon A Time. . . In Hollywood

 After an initial attempt, I was finally able to see Quentin Tarantino's Once Upon A Time. . . In Hollywood. This is a great, and in it's own way, very scary movie that incorporates the Charles Manson story/mythology into a new story all its own. There are some great monologues, individual scenes, and a spectacular climax that I would say make this (no kidding) Tarantino's best film. Don't fear the Manson family! Check this one out!

The President's Daughter

 I recently finished Bill Clinton and James Patterson's The President's Daughter. This, in many ways, is a highly entertaining and thrilling book about the kidnapping of the President's daughter. It depicts in many ways how depraved and evil kidnappers and criminals can be. Some sequences are harrowing, while others are downright action oriented and thrilling. I would highly recommend this book!
