Pygmalion, a 1977 PB by Peter Haars

Bookmail pt. 7 of 8:
Pygmalion pubbed in 1977 and written by Peter Haars joins the Norwegian TBR (although he was technically German he lived most of his life in Norway). He might have been most known for his book covers but did actually write as well

Welcome to 1990s Norway. White picket fences run in neat rows and Christian conservatism runs deep. But as the Artist considers her work, things start stirring themselves up. In a corner of Oslo a coven of witches begin cooking up some curses. A time-travelling Edvard Munch arrives in town to join a death metal band, closely pursued by the teenaged subject of his painting Puberty, who has murder on her mind. Meanwhile, out deep in the forest, a group of school girls get very lost and things get very strange. And awful things happen in aspic.

Jenny Hval's latest novel is a radical fusion of queer feminist theory and experimental horror, and a unique treatise on magic, writing and art.

A ★★★★½ review of Troll Hunter (2010) Trollhunter (2010) is a film I recently rewatched on Tubi. The story follows a group of friends investigating a series of mysterious animal deaths in their area. Their search leads them to an eccentri...

Trollhunter(2010)For a found footage movie, the storyline is incredibly engaging and, in my opinion, much more enjoyable than Cloverfield. The CGI is impressive, and the portrayal of trolls is creative and believable. 9/10, @letterboxd.social review below
