One translation and one horror

 The Housekeeper and the Professor, by Yoko Ogawa, Stephen Snyder (tr.). Fantastic book. If you like baseball and math, you'll love this book. If you don't, you'll still love this book. I don't know didley-squat about baseball (my math isn't too shabby), but loved this. The housekeeper re-meets the professor every single day, due to his accident years earlier leaving him with only 80 minutes of present memory; everything else is 1976 or earlier. (Knowing that won't spoil the book.) The housekeeper manages to stay on, unlike her nine predecessors, and develops an interesting relationship with the professor, which includes her baseball-obsessed 10-year old son. Quick read (180-ish pages).

Rosemary's Baby, by Ira Levin. Recently read his The Boys from Brazil which was awesome. This one? Even better. Rosemary and Guy move into a new apartment, in a building highly sought after. For those who don't research these buildings to find out if they're evil! Well, the building isn't evil, but its occupants sure are. In moves the young, fertile couple. Target for satanists! Wife and I are watching the movie tonight. Can't wait!
