The way to love anything is to realize that it may be lost.（何ごとも愛する方法は、それをいつかは失うかもしれないと認識することである。）---- Gilbert K. Chesterton

Alice Through the Looking Glass アリス・イン・ワンダーランド／時間の旅

With stellar cast and Wonderland without wonder, it seems to be simply impossible for this sequel to go wrong. The master of oddness and eccentricities himself, Johnny Depp（ジョニー・デップ）, the ethereal, apt bride of Tim Burton（ティム・バートン）, Helena Bonham Carter（ヘレナ・ボナム＝カーター）, and the charmingly mischievous Sacha Baron Cohen（サシャ・バロン・コーエン）gave us unmemorable performances. Not to mention that Anne Hathaway（アン・ハサウェイ）'s bizarre White Queen.

The Brand New Testament 神様メール

The storytelling is exquisite. Elaborately constructed frames of short bursts of gorgeous, surreal elements pepper the action to ensure that this movie is a very rare delight. Each character in this film is unique and forms pieces of the brilliant display. Benoit Poelvoorde（ブノワ・ポールヴールド）superbly plays the mischievous and despicable portrayal of God. Pil Groyne（ピリ・グロイン）, who plays 10-year-old Ea, was memorable as well. David Murgia（ダヴィッド・ミュルジア）is also charming yet hilarious as Jesus Christ.

The Huntsman Winter's War スノーホワイト／氷の王国

It is a fun ride with plenty of action, plenty of humor, and a great cast. Seeing "three" of the most gorgeous actresses appear together, Emily Blunt（エミリー・ブラント）, Charlize Theron（シャーリーズ・セロン）, Jessica Chastain（ジェシカ・チャステイン） in a movie is surely a feast for the eyes. The dialog is lighthearted, and the story is easy to follow and is enough to keep you engaged, and the love story believable.

Where is My Home? ぼくの おうちは どこ？

"Where is My Home?" with my translation (revised edition) has been published this week. This is a story about a boy named Terry. Everybody called him Terry Treetop because he loved climbing trees. Terry follows a butterfly one day and finds himself lost. Terry wants to go back home. But where is Terry's home? Does the rabbit in the borrow know? Does the beaver in the lodge know? Maybe the fawn's mother knows? Or can Suzanne the squirrel help him? I sincerely hope both children and adults will enjoy this little gem in English and Japanese. Please recharge your souls with the full-color illustrations of energetic Terry and the adorable animals he met.
今週、翻訳いたしました『ぼくの おうちは どこ？』の改訂版が出版されました。木登りが大好きで、みんなからテリー･ツリートップと呼ばれている少年のお話。ある日、テリーは、きれいなチョウを追いかけているうちに迷子になってしまいます。家に帰りたいテリー。でもテリーの家はどこでしょう？巣の中のウサギなら知っているかしら？小屋に住むビーバーなら分かるかしら？小鹿のお母さんなら知っているかも？それともリスのスザンネが助けてくれる？英語と日本語のバイリンガルで、親子そろってお楽しみいただければ幸甚です。元気ハツラツなテリーと、かわいらしい動物たちのフルカラーのイラストとともに、心を充電させてくださいませ。
