Interviewer: There's one thing that's interesting about your books. I noticed that you write women really well and really different. Where does that come from?

Yup no one's going to care about this post
but I just searched the “Vera Chytilova” tag on tumblr because I was looking for a very specific image from her film Daisies (wonderful movie) and the tag “daisies” was way too vague, and I found the EXACT image that I was looking for, and as I went to reblog it I saw that - THIS IS THE MIND-BLOWER - I personally know the girl who posted it. Not only does she live in my...
