Ingenioso cortometraje de Jacques Rivette, considerado por muchos como el pistoletazo de arranque del movimiento conocido como la nouvelle vague. Inspirado en un cuento de Roald Dahl cargado de ironía, sigue a Claire, que es infiel a su marido y tiene un amante. Éste le regala un abrigo de pieles, pero como no podría justificar su propiedad, inventa una argucia, el supuesto hallazgo casual del resguardo de una consigna de estación, donde han depositado el abrigo.

Damian Barr on reading for the Big Scottish Book Club, his love of Jackie Kay’s latest poetry and being inspired by James Baldwin. The first book I remember reading:The answer to this shifts – like so many memories. Beyond Peter and Jane…it would be a memory of being read to. At primary school, if we all finished our work early, our teacher would read aloud to us until the bell. I remember helping others finish their work so that I could find out what happened next in the Witches by Roald Dahl.

Bite-sized fantasy reads under 300 pages offer intuitive storytelling with original elements. Standalone works by Neil Gaiman and Terry Pratchett deliver impact in short lengths by using established tropes. Anthologies like Vampires Never Get Old provide fresh takes on classic fantasy themes, also within a reasonable number of pages. There are plenty of lengthy fantasy book series worth committing to, but readers are sometimes in the mood for a bite-sized fantasy experience of 300 pages or less.
