The Book People

Well it's that time again . . . time for the Frankfurt Book Fair. I can't wait to hang out with The Book People and be reminded that there are indeed a lot of people who still care about books, despite what the doomsayers would have us believe about the demise of the printed word.

So with that in mind, here's my tribute to book lovers everywhere--one of the most beautiful pieces of music ever written for film. It's the finale to Bernard Herrmann's score for Fahrenheit 451. The music accompanies the scene in which Montag has finally found his way to The Book People and begins the task of committing to memory Tales of Mystery and Imagination by Edgar Allan Poe. Oh and in case you're wondering, my book would be The Bone People by Keri Hulme . . . and if you don't know what I'm on about then read Bradbury or see Truffaut's adaptation.



Okay, if that doesn't grab you, try this one!

  6. One day I was surfing web and suddenly I found website named www.home-businessreviews.com I discovered how to begin my own home business and i was able after all quit my job where i was employed one year, now I'm earning 150$/day. I was able to make such kind of money because I discovered some really cool best home business opportunity. At site called www.home-businessreviews.com

It seems that he lost thousands of dollars before he discovered winner home based business program which actually helped to make money online. But which one? see at website below!
