schindler who? it's tom's story!

can authors beat a dead horse anymore? (not a good analogy with our equine influenza epidemic! but the melbourne cup will continue, we are assured by the stoic minister for nothing in particular, peter mcgauren--apparently the billions of dollars the spring carnival brings in can't be missed.) as it turns out, yes! our favourite book turned film, schindler's ark (aka schindler's list, don't know why speilberg wouldn't want those christian connotations?! the book ['82] was republished as schindler's list after the film ['94]. n.b the title also received some criticism amongst american jews, something keneally doesn't address in his new book.), is receiving its own explanation in searching for schindler, a memoir. well not so much an explanation as a tommo festival of wonder! how hard it was to write, reflecting on a european war even tho he's a failed seminarian from suburban sydney, how it was to go to the oscars, and for good measure some 2000 sydney olympics joy. how you beaut!
