In all respect, because I usually like your posts, but your sarcasm here is severely misplaced. This book, along with the two others I read from Alice Sebold, is as far removed from anything Lifetime as I am from the nearest inhabited planet. It is a very dramatic book, but also a quite ruthless one, there is no glossing over the tragic, most deeply human realities of loss, suffering, torture and the sometimes pivotal family dynamics between the main characters. I think the trailer will look absolutely mesmerizing, and those douchebags over at Entertainment Tonight completely raped the premise by voicing it over with a summarisation of the plot which sounds like a three year-old read the backflap of the book and scribbled it on their cutting-room wall! Peter Jackson kneading this book into a movie is the best thing I could have hoped for to happen to it. He was, after all, the mind behind Heavenly creatures... Seriously. Read the book.
