Remember how I posted a few weeks ago about the zombie Pride and Prejudice book by Seth Grahame-Smith coming out? The NY Times has noticed all the chatter about the book too. Check out this article: I Was a Regency Zombie. Perhaps my favorite line: “Holy Northanger Abbey!” LOL.
P.S. The book’s opening line is: “It is a truth universally acknowledged that a zombie in possession of brains must be in want of more brains.”
P.P.S. If you can believe it, there is also a competing film project in the works, called Pride and Predator. More here.
I’m stoked! Just found out that PBS has a new film version of Thomas Hardy’s Tess of the D’Urbervilles in their Masterpiece series. It’s showing January 4-11, 2009 on PBS. Gemma Arterton stars as Tess, Eddie Redmayne as Angel, and Hans Matheson as Alec D’Urberville. Should be interesting to see how it compares to the book.
