Books
Motherless Brooklyn Jonathan Lethem
A mystery novel told in the first person by a young man who suffers from Tourette's Syndrome. The mystery plot itself is stretched
a little thin, but this is a real tour de force by a writer to watch. - Submitted by Sheila

Movies
Rushmore Wes Anderson, director
One of the sweetest and funniest movies of the 90s. Some people didn't like the main character, but I found him fascinating
and charming in a squirmy sort of way. Also one of the best and least contrived happy endings I've seen in a movie recently.
Bill Murray is great! - Submitted by Jim

Music
Home Josh Rouse
A quirky sophomore effort by a singer-songwriter to watch. Starts strong ("Marvin Gaye" and "Direction" are standouts) but
eventually all the songs begin to sound alike, which is unfortunate. Josh should maybe hire a producer more willing to experiment
with his sound. - Submitted by Patricia
