I picked up this book from Borders on one of those fingers trailing along book spines days and this tale of suburban despair turned out to be much more depressing than I imagined. Revolutionary Road, according to The New Yorker, is Richard Yates' masterpiece, because he "never published a novel half as good again".
A while after I finished the book, I found out that it had been made into a movie starring Kate Winslet and Leonardo DiCaprio. Oh, I love Kate Winslet. And I like Leonardo DiCaprio. And to be honest, the both of them together. Because who can forget Titanic? Jack and Rose? This is as un-you-jump-I-jump as you can get.
According to David Denby of The New Yorker, it's one of the 10 best films of 2008. Unfortunately for us, Yahoo SG says it will open on 19 February. In the meanwhile, you can check out the trailer - which I love - and read the book.
