I first followed them from very far behind. At nights, when they would circle around a fire, I would climb up into some ruined second story. There, I would hunt rats and watch them through shattered panes. Sometimes I would doze off, but I always managed to wake before morning. I got very little sleep during this period. When they finally packed up and began to move again, I would wait until just...

A Clockwork Orange by Anthony Burgess
There comes a time in every young highschooler’s life (myself included) when some friend or relative recommends watching the Kubrick film “A Clockwork Orange”.

Mad Love by Andre Breton
I first heard of Andre Breton several years ago when I came across the Surrealist Manifesto, which he had written. I was impressed and , I daresay, a little inspired by the manifesto and how it seemed to laud praise upon the impulse.
