Itō’s work has enjoyed a murky fame outside Japan since the early 2000s, even before there was much of an infrastructure for North American manga publishing. It haunted her, a friend told me, because it captured “the horror of being alive … where most horror stories would end at death, he keeps his characters in the hell of surviving.” The Enigma of Amigara Fault ends abruptly, with the implication that it could have gone on for dozens of pages more. Fascinated onlookers start squeezing inside the holes, desperate to find one that will fit them. ![]() The premise of The Enigma of Amigara Fault was odd, a little unnerving, not exactly terrifying: after a massive earthquake, authorities find human-shaped openings lining the new landscape. O ver the past decade, one particular work by the Japanese cartoonist Junji Itō kept popping up on blogs and message boards, bootlegged by amateur translators. ![]() ![]() And I was quite an entrepreneur as a child-I would have lemonade stands, or make and sell braided barrettes with ribbons, or stationery-whatever I could do to make money. My father was a huge businessman and it was always about economics with him. Did you pursue design right away yourself, then? I think that was probably the first spark. She was a one-man show with a thriving business downstairs in the basement. When she was about 30 years old, my mother said, “I want to stop moving and my own career, so I’m going to keep the girls in and you can commute from here.” She is a very creative woman and had always wanted to have her own business, so she decided to take a chance and launch an interior design firm. ![]() ![]() My family moved about every two years for my father’s job when I was a young child. What was the moment you knew you wanted to be a designer? ![]() ![]() ![]() The Night Things starts out with Courtney moving into her uncle’s house and shows her difficulties in adjusting to her new home and school. Courtney Crumrin is a fun romp through a world of the night that starts out creepy and slowly takes on a darker air, but not in a gory or sinister way. After reading these first two volumes, I’m glad my intuition was right. A girl with an attitude that doesn’t fit in with the “normal” kids her age but feels more comfortable with the world of magic and the night seemed like my kind of lead. Right from the beginning, Courtney Crumrin sounded like a series I would enjoy. On top of dealing with rich, snobby classmates and a new home that is musty and decrepit, Courtney has to deal with the strange creatures that come in and crawl about the house, just out of sight: The Night Things. Thanks to her parents overloading their credit cards, they have accepted an offer to move to the wealthy suburb of Hillsborough and live rent free with their creepy old uncle, Aloysius. Things aren’t going so well for Courtney Crumrin. ![]() ![]() ![]() Too savage and cantankerous for a park, it was inadequately designated as a playground. Someday the hill might be bulldozed down, when greed had grown even greater than it is today and awe of primeval nature even less, but now it could still awaken panic terror. ![]() An observer below would have found it almost impossible to make out its jagged spine and the weird crags crowning its top (which even the gulls avoided) and breaking out here and there from its raw, barren sides, which although sometimes touched by fog, had not known the pelting of rain for months. But on the hill itself there was not a single light. On every side of Corona Heights the street and house lights of San Francisco, weakest at end of night, hemmed it in apprehensively, as if it were indeed a dangerous animal. But to the east, beyond the city's business center and the fog-surfaced Bay, the narrow ghostly ribbon of the dawn's earliest light lay along the tops of the low hills behind Berkeley, Oakland, and Alameda, and still more distant Devil's Mountain-Mount Diablo. ![]() The waxing gibbous moon had set, and the stars at the top of the black heavens were still diamond sharp. It looked steadily downward and northeast away at the nervous, bright lights of downtown San Francisco as if it were a great predatory beast of night surveying its territory in patient search of prey. ![]() The solitary, steep hill called Corona Heights was black as pitch and very silent, like the heart of the unknown. ![]() ![]() ![]() Shaved ham and house smoked pork under melted swiss, topped with pickles and hot honey mustard, served on soft ciabatta bun.

I was curious to know which fruits and vegetables were readily available for a family in Steventon or Bath’s markets, particularly in late June through early September. The variety of foods in Jane Austen’s day were different. The foods listed in the EIFC are those available in Great Britain today. This site includes a more extensive list of foods, and suggests recipes as well. I also checked the National Trust site, which discusses foods in season in August – July – and September. ![]() (See the list of fruits and vegetables below.) In that site I looked up fruits and vegetables in Great Britain, clicked on August, and received the following information on the food during this month.īilberry, blackberry, blueberry, cherry, crab apple, elderberry, gooseberry, greengage, loganberry, plum, raspberry, redcurrent, strawberry, watermelonĪrtichoke, aubergine, beetroot, bell pepper, broad bean, broccoli, cabbage, carrot, cavolo nero, celery, chard, chili, courgette, cucumber, fennel, garlic, haricot bean, kohlrabi, lamb’s lettuce, mangetout, marrow, mushroom, onion, pak choi, pea, potato, radicchio, radish, rucola, runner bean, samphire, spinach, spring onion, sweet corn, tomato, turnip, watercress Luckily, I found two websites that made my search for British food easy: one is for the seasonal foods of England at the The European Food Information Council. ![]() Fantastic hairdress with fruit and vegetable motif, 18th c., anonymous. ![]() ![]() ![]() In the book, Belle Goose (instead of Bella Swan) falls for Edwart Mullen (instead of Edward Cullen), thinking that his odd behavior is representative of the supernatural. It’s a simple story, really: Girl meets boy, girl blindly assumes boy is a vampire and therefore “unconditionally, irrevocably, impenetrably, heterogeneously, gynecologically, and disreputably wished he had kissed” her. Nightlight, which came out this month, is the social organization-cum-humor publication’s first parody novel since Bored of the Rings 40 years ago. ![]() It took the 12 members of the Harvard Lampoon three months, about 50 six-packs of beer, and 30 large cheese pizzas to turn it into a farce. It took Hollywood more than three years and $37-million to turn Stephenie Meyer’s bloodsucking romance Twilight into a movie. ![]() ![]() ![]() Don’t eat while you are in the car, dashing to an appointment or distracted (whether it’s by television, work or something else).
