movies recently on video

Turn off TV? Easy. Walk out on a movie? No problem. Why, then, can’t we abandon books without feeling guilty?
The prospect of tucking into Hilary Mantel’s “Wolf Hall,” indisputably the Big Book of 2009, made me shiver with anticipatory delight. Awaiting me within its 532 pages was, I felt sure, Mantel’s usual blend of arch humor, shrewd observation, sharp dialogue and cascading narrative.
