Sad that it took me so long to get my hands on this beauty.  Now that I have read it, i can enjoy the film guilt-free. to quote one of my students: "you have to read it...the film is beautiful, but the book is beautiful-er".  Thanks Bernie!  The book certainly IS beautiful, but also somehow more confronting than I expected - talking about the turn of seasons and death of animals (including at each other's "hands").  HIGHLY recommended!
