What is a man? A miserable little pile of secrets! But enough talk, have at you!
That was great, but the English translation of Castlevania: Symphony of the Night ruined it for everyone who plays videogames because of the title. When we hear “What is a man?”, our minds immediately jump to “A miserable pile of secrets and lies” (It’s not sexist because Count Dracula said it).
Damn. You beat me to it.
That was great Tom. Thanks for sharing.
Love it, great find.
Thanks for thinking this worthwhile enough to share Tom! How funny–I came across this site just last week for the first time, when searching out a short story by James Franco, and ended up reading and enjoying a number of articles here. Am happy this project is now on my radar, thank you for it.
Absolutely Brilliant!
“Fingers like stems of flowers.” “Slow down, Quentin.”
Beautiful. Thanks for this.
Thank my niece Maria, who is studying in Italy, who email it to me this morning!
