Welcome to the Learning English Through Literature Blog!

This is a space for you to exchange ideas, opinions and feelings about the books we are looking at and the ones you have chosen to present, perhaps even recommend some new ones.

As we only have bi-weekly classes this is an ideal place to meet and to relate your reading experiences between classes. Hopefully the posts here will also add to the richness of the discussions in class and provide a jumping off point for areas of discussion we might otherwise have overlooked.

Basically, the more you post, the more useful the blog.

So get writing!

Eternal Sunshine Of the Spotless mind

Hi all!

I attach you here the link of the film we have been talking about in our last class! The one we couldn't find the right translation in spanish.

"Eternal Sunshine Of the Spotless Mind" (Olvídate de mi) talks about love when you don't feel anything, and the wish of coming back to the lovely firsts days in love, when things are just perfect. Like the great Faulkner said: "Between grief and nothing I will take grief". There is a connection between their words and this film.

Michael Gondry directed "Eternal Sunshine of the spotless mind", as Oliver explained us, with a great Philip Kaufman's script. A perfect vision about love and grief.

A great choice...

We will see how is Mr. Greene...

Have a nice week!

Esther.

    Great film. Thanks for this, Esther: the Spanish title is just a little bit different than the English one...
