Wow… I must admit, I found myself reflecting after finishing John Green’s “Looking for Alaska”. I reminisced about my time in elementary, high school (and even college, why not), thinking about the people I met during my schooling. Of course, encountering each person in our lives shapes and defines us in some way, there’s…
The Mummy Rick: Well if it ain’t my little buddy Beni. I think I’ll kill you. Beni: Think of my children. Rick: You don’t have any children. Beni: … … … Someday I might… The nineties gifted us many film classics that enchanted both film critics and audiences. Some had deep, emotional and philosophical…
The Briefcase When you finish reading The Briefcase by Hiromi Kawakami, you’ll be left with mixed feelings.

The first rule of Fight Club – you do not talk about Fight Club. The second rule of Fight Club – you do not talk about Fight Club. … The eighth rule of Fight Club – if this is your first night at Fight Club, you have to fight. Honestly, I’m…
The Catch “Peace is the time when sons bury fathers, war is the time when fathers bury sons” – Herodotus Kenzaburo Oe is a very interesting figure. He was 23 years old when he received the most prestigious and largest Japanese literary prize – “Akutagawa” (in 1958) for the novella “The Catch,” and in…
Sometimes you don’t need a series consisting of 45-minute episodes, where each one is connected to the previous, often requiring you to remember what happened in a certain scene of a certain episode (from a few seasons ago) to better connect with what you’re currently watching. No, sometimes a series consisting of 18 episodes,…
