Os presentamos a Grace Bernard: hija, hermana y asesina en serie.
Grace lo ha perdido todo y no se detendrá ante nada para vengarse.
Cuando Grace Bernard descubre que el padre millonario que la abandonó ha ignorado las llamadas de auxilio de su madre moribunda, jura venganza y se propone matar a todos los miembros de su acaudalada familia. Así que hace una lista de nombres y, decidida a tacharlos todos, se lanza en una misión despiadada para hacer justicia y, en el proceso, convertirse en la única heredera de la fortuna de los Artemis. Su plan es perfecto y confía en salirse con la suya sin mayores problemas, pero siempre hay variables que una no puede controlar... sobre todo cuando hablamos de matar. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION A darkly humorous debut novel that follows a cunning antihero as she gets her revenge. When I think about what I actually did, I feel somewhat sad that nobody will ever know about the complex operation that I undertook. Getting away with it is highly preferable, of course, but perhaps when I'm long gone, someone will open an old safe and find this confession. The public would reel. After all, almost nobody else in the world can possibly understand how someone, by the tender age of 28, can have calmly killed six members of her family. And then happily got on with the rest of her life, never to regret a thing.
When Grace Bernard discovers her absentee millionaire father has rejected her dying mother's pleas for help, she vows revenge and coldly sets out to get her retribution--by killing them all, one by one. Compulsively readable, Bella Mackie's debut novel is driven by a captivating first-person narrator who talks of "self-care" and social media while calmly walking the reader through her increasingly baroque acts of murder. But then, Grace is imprisoned for a murder she didn't commit. Outrageously funny, compulsive, and subversive, How to Kill Your Family is a wickedly dark romp about class, family, love . . . and murder

Terrible delivery
This review is about product delivery.
The Apu Trilogy is one of the best trilogies in the style of Italian neorealism ever made. These movies are international treasures and should be preserved for posterity. I wish Amazon packaging had considered that.
When Amazon sends me a single battery, it comes wrapped and boxed in a giant box. Almost everything comes in oversized packages, but they sent the three DVDs without any protective envelope, box, or sleeve. It arrived in its original packaging, dinged on all four corners. The DVDs were a birthday gift. Extremely disappointed!

Stunning Document of Humanity
I waited far, far too long to immerse myself in the films of Satyajit Ray. After finally watching the Apu trilogy on The Criterion Channel, I immediately purchase the Criterion set (because the internet's going down someday and these are pantheon-level, must-have films).
Ray's 3-film trilogy following the arc of a boy's life from his idyllic rural village in India to the teeming metropolis of Calcutta covers just about every aspect of human growth and conflict. Family, curiosity, mischief, tragedy, love, desire, intellectual pursuit, and ultimately, the responsibility of parenthood all unfold in Ray's epically framed cinema. At times one feels as if watching a documentary, glimpsing the intimate moments of lives we might never otherwise see. Ray's direction lets every scene breathe fully and the actors feel perfectly natural. It's also a real treat to hear the early works of a young Ravi Shankar in his perfectly timed soundtrack utilizing both traditional and modern treatments of Indian music. Ray's Apu trilogy--as well as the rest of his film catalogue--are must-watch movies for any student of film or anyone who appreciates a beautiful, heartfelt, and philosophical portrait of people enslaved by pleasures, responsibilities, and tragedies.

Satyajit Ray's Great Trilogy Masterpiece Gets the Criterion Treatment In Blu Ray!
Years before trilogies were in vogue, way before "The Godfather" there was "The Apu Trilogy". The original negatives were lost in a fire and yet Criterion has managed to work miracles with this masterful restoration of this beautiful classic tale of the life of a Bengalese child to adulthood over 3 films. The story is compelling and absorbing and directed as only a master like Satyajit Ray can. Any attempt to further describe this movie would just not do justice to it; it has to be experienced and rewards repeated viewing. This release also includes a 48-page booklet of essays on the film in addition to the 3 blu ray discs of the films. Great sound and picture quality is evident as well considering the film's age and source master.
This worthy addition to any art-film buff's video library comes highly recommended!

What is the point? (SPOILER)
My heading echoes the adult Apu who, in the last movie in the trilogy says, "What is the use?" and allows the pages of his autobiographical novel to blow away in a wind.
In the first two movies we enter the very real life of a rural Indian family whose members are all lovingly created by director and actors. But their story is rather sad. First Apu's young sister dies of illness, a fate shared much later by their father. Then the life of the mother dwindles away and Apu is left alone. The restoration of the nearly-destroyed films is a technological marvel, but I wondered if this tale would attain to anything of lasting value by the end.
With the third and last movie in this series, I can reach a somewhat different conclusion. There is death and suffering in this last part too as Apu's wife dies early on but the entire narrative reaches a sudden and surprising resolution when Apu unites with his long-abandoned little boy who is himself a mirror of Apu growing up. There is something of a vacuous Asian experience in this cinematic telling but it doesn't really come to nothing as the stereotype might suggest. I recall that experience in David Lean's rendering of E.M.Forster's A Passage to India, a wonderful movie too but, like the novel, lending itself to earlier Western ideas about the East. An element of life, freedom, joy bursts upon us at the end of Ray's movie and transforms everything we have seen before. Yes, life is risky, unpredictable, filled with suffering, but it can still lead to something wonderful.
