My Bad
When I put together my “Best of” list for 2008, I mistakenly omitted The Diving Bell and the Butterfly, by Jean-Dominique Bauby. I’d like to say that I had decided that that book was so good that it deserved its own independent “best of” post, but the truth is I had somehow blanked on it while compiling my list and neglected to include it. As I was discussing the new Bond film with someone last night I mentioned that the villain in the Bond movie is played by the guy who was in the film adaptation of The Diving . . . OH MY GOD! I FORGOT TO INCLUDE THAT ON MY LIST! That’s sort of what happened. Anyway, this is an incredible book, and also a pretty fine movie to boot.
