Re: Cloud Atlas
Back in November I watched Cloud Atlas, the wannabe-epic movie from Tom Tykwer and the Wachowskis that I ultimately panned as “more six mediocre movies than one good movie”. I was intrigued enough, however, to read the book the movie was based on, and I promised to report back on it once I had finished.
Evidently I wasn’t the only one with this plan, because when I put a hold on the book at the SF public library, there were over 250 requests ahead of me. Consequently, I didn’t actually get ahold of it until late January, and finished reading it only a few weeks ago.
Happy Lunar New Year!
Happy Year of the Snake, and since I’m learning Korean: 새해 복 많이 받으세요! Per tradition, I’m posting the nengajō (new year’s card) I made for the Japanese New Year, which also follows the twelve-animal cycle but on the schedule of the Gregorian calendar.
