So I have only read Interview with the Vampire, Memnoch the Devil, and Blood Canticles! I have to say my favorite was Memnoch as well as Interview. Nicolas, is purdy cur-azy in my flippin opinion...whoo! But I understand his cynical views. Anywho, what is your guys' favorite book of the Vampire Chronicles? I would really like to know.

there's a "movies that make you cry" thread and I thought there should be a books one too Mine is such a large list A walk to remember by Nicholas Sparks If I were a boy by Haki Stermilli Uncle Tom's Cabin by H.B.Stou Harry Potter 5 and 7 Le Père Goriot(Uncle Goriot)" by Honore de Balzac "Pride & Prejudice" by Jane Ousten "Anne Franks Diary" I'm sure there are a lot more which I don't remember I'll post them later

This is a thread where you introduce your favorite art pieces to BZ. I'd like to limit it to non-performing arts. So paintings, sculptures, architecture, an conceptual art are all acceptable. To get us started: Resurrezione di Lazzaro by Caravaggio Before I start explaining why I like this painting, I should probably mention that I am a great admirer of abstract art. There is very little in the Baroque era that I really love, yet this painting finds itself easily in my top ten. Why is hard to explain without access to the piece itself. Just believe me when I tell you that the picture I included above does not even capture 1/100th of the power of seeing this piece in…

my favorite comic books are The Witching Painkiller Jane Jungle Girl there is alot more & will be posted later on!

because she's one of my favorite photographers and i think i'm not the only one and one post on the photography's thread is not enough i decided to create this one to post her work. biography : Diane Arbus (March 14, 1923 – July 26, 1971) was an American photographer and writer noted for black-and-white square photographs of "deviant and marginal people (dwarfs, giants, transvestites, nudists, circus performers) or of people whose normality seems ugly or surreal." A friend said that Arbus said that she was "afraid... that she would be known simply as 'the photographer of freaks'"; however, that phrase has been used repeatedly to describe her. In 1972, a year after she…

Hello friends! Here is my 1st tribute to one of our members, Vanja. Although I sent you a request directly asking permission to use one of your images as a reference I could not wait for a reply. I was too excited by the concept. And started painting. In any case this piece is a direct tribute to Rembrandt and the phenomenal beauty that is Vanja. You are immortalized here as I believe Rembrandt would have seen you through his eyes. This draws directly from Portrait of Saskia 1633 and a ton of pictures I found online of you. I had no idea you were so published! That made painting you much easier than I had thought as I had many many good angles of your beautiful…
