I’m obsessed with this novel. If you loved The Goldfinch for its unique characters and The Overstory for the ingenious way trees are used to talk about the survival of our species, this is your kind of book. It’s a poetic page turner. I love reading for opening new worlds to me-I’m often looking things up as I read to deepen the experience. This novel is so rich in experience you will feel like you have traveled the globe, the universe and thousands of years. This is a treasure that adds greatly to the wealth of literature to which it pays tribute.

This film is incredibly beautiful, from the sets, costume design, special effects, cinematography to the faces of the actors. Each scene is mesmerizing. It’s not a stand alone film- and ends abruptly. But that is really my only real complaint, and I’m hoping for more! The directing was a friend to the actors- even Jason Momoa seemed believable. The camera loves Timothee Chalomet! His face is as sculptural as the sand dunes and the amazing architecture. The amount of comedy was just right. Overall, a total blast and feast for the eyes. Remarkable job of creating alternative universes.
