si henry james, hindi ko kilala until sa notting hill. kasi di ba sa movie, may line si anna na, "you think i should do henry james instead?" , and well, when she came back, it was a henry james movie she was making. tas this book, super tagal na sa bookshelf ko kasi kaya ko lang to binili i though some political book. wahahah. so one day na wala akong mabasa, pinagtiyagaan ko na lang. and whoa! was i in for a surprise. kaya pala sikat si henry james kasi magaling siyang magsulat. ito yung parang, wala, cool lang ako dito, kwinekwento ko lang what happens to catherine and her dad and her tita. as in third person kwento ito. parang wala akong pakialam pero ganito ang nangyayari at dahil magaling akong magkwento, parang chill and all, sige magbasa lang kayo jan. haha. parang detached na involved ang pagkwento niya. alam mo yun. super simple. pero yung characters kasi, parang malalim saka he makes it a point to explain why the dad is like that, why the kid is like that. pati yung character ng tita, parang matutuwa ka na maiinis ka na ewan. alam mo yun. yung story lang nito, parang weirdo for me kasi yung daddy, parang ano ba, give your daughter a chance naman. ang selfish kasi e. and then dun sa guy bida, diyos ko naman, walang kahihiyan at super batugan. alam mo yun, batugan with a capital B. walang kahihiyan. at si catherine naman, parang matalino na tanga din. kasi wala, hinayaan lang niya na ganun, hindi man lang nagmatapang ganun. in the end, wala, sinong malungkot. pero sabagay, kung yung batugan with a capital B nga lang din naman, baka better na nga what happened.
