Along the way, the author touches upon other classic German fantasy silents, such as The Golem, The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari and Metropolis.
Inside Oscar
More than we ever wanted to know about the froth that rises every year to the top of the fermenting tank of American popular trash--er... culture. And a nasty book. Flimsy binding and acidic paper--this is the best news: the book will self-destruct in a few years. Indispensible for those who wallow in movie trivia.

Minnen av minnet
När faster Galja dör lämnar hon efter sig en lägenhet full av bråte. Ingen vet var alla gamla saker kommer ifrån och fotoalbumen är fyllda av gåtfulla, främmande ansikten. Författaren börjar sortera bland släktens minnen, och fram växer en märkvärdig text som hon burit inom sig hela livet: en förening av familjekrönika, memoar, essä och historia. Maria Stepanovas jakt efter släktminnen går genom en rad berättelser om fotoalbum, grötdockor, kärleksbrev och angivarbrev, från judiska begravningsplatser till Leningrads belägring. I dialog med författare som Mandelstam, Proust och Sebald skapar hon en på samma gång riktningslös och mycket vittfamnande berättelse. Maria Stepanova, född 1972 i Moskva, är poet, essäist, journalist och chefredaktör för nättidningen colta.ru. Minnen av minnet, hennes första roman, har fått mycket uppmärksamhet både i Ryssland och internationellt och har belönats Bolshaya Kniga-priset och Jasnaja Poljanas läsarpris.
