A little trailer treat for your Monday! I am so excited for Young Goethe in Love, which looks as swoon-worthy as biopics Immortal Beloved and Bright Star.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe is largely credited, along with Schiller, as the founder of German romanticism and the Sturm und Drang movement. Young Goethe in Love looks like it's based in part on Goethe's break-out book, The Sorrows of Young Werther, a largely autobiographical novel which detailed his affair with a beautiful, already-affianced peasant. If you like foreign films, biopics, and/or period pieces, Young Goethe in Love might be the ticket. It's playing in select locations now. In the meantime, here are some German pet names, in case you've ever wondered how to call your beloved a gummibarchen or schneckchen.
Some exciting news for anyone in the tri-state area this week! To celebrate the launch of Blake Butler's There Is No Year, we'll be hosting a 4-night reading series in Manhattan and Brooklyn.

Thanks to a brilliant effort in publishing your article. One can be more informative as this. There are many things I can know only after reading your wonderful article.

No offense, but if there's a facebook like button, it'll be much easier for me to share.

You'd elope with the heroine's younger, misguided sister, and become a source of scorn and derision. A bit more exciting than landed gentry, no?

I work at a big bookstore that is pushing their ereader, and I still can't bring myself to get one either. You're not alone.
