Recommended reading – Psycho (novel & book of the movie):
Psycho
By Robert Bloch.
Filmed as Psycho
(1960), directed by Alfred Hitchcock.
Published by The
Overlook Press.
First published 1959.
ISBN-10: 1590203356
ISBN-13: 9781590203354
Description:
"Psycho all came
from Robert Bloch's book." – Alfred Hitchcock.
"Icily
terrifying!" – The New York Times.
"Robert Bloch is
one of the all-time masters." – Peter Straub.
Norman Bates loves his
mother. She has been dead for the past 20 years, or so people think. Norman
knows better, though.
Ever since leaving the
hospital, he has lived with Mother in the old house up on the hill above the
Bates Motel. One night, after a beautiful woman checks into the motel, Norman
spies on her as she undresses. Norman can’t help but spy on her.
Mother is there, though.
She is there to protect Norman from his filthy thoughts. She is there to
protect him with her butcher knife.
If you love to be
scared, or are a fan of classic movies, then you know the story of Norman
Bates, his mother, and the dark and frightening Bates Motel. Alfred Hitchcock’s
taut, shocking scare-fest starring Anthony Perkins and Janet Leigh is a classic
movie, as scary today as it was in 1960 when it was first released, and this is
the 1959 novel upon which the movie is based.
It was here that the
legend of the Bates Motel was born.

Jhumpa Lahiri, on writing:
It is a magical thing
for a handful of words, artfully arranged, to stop time.
To conjure a place, a
person, a situation, in all its specificity and dimensions.
To affect us and
alter us, as profoundly as real people and things do.
- Jhumpa Lahiri.

I often think flowers

whereby they write on hills and fields
mysterious and
beautiful lessons for us to feel and learn.
