The best children's book I've read since Gaiman and McKean's Coraline, and an 1100 page political biography. More to say about both shortly. And for those who still go to multiplex movies, Christopher Nolan's The Prestige is a lovely stew of Dickensian atmosphere (as in Charles, not Philip K.), gothic intrigue, cascading plot reversals, and Tesla technology. Ryan Aronofsky was in tonight's audience at the Paramount on Burrard, and apparently enjoyed himself as much as I.
