Hill by Jean Giono published by NYRB. Impressionist painting of a few white dwellings on a mountainside. The house off to the left has a bright red door.

Giono's debut novel. Although in its original french it wouldn't fit the criteria...

1st one that popped into my head!

One of my favorite warblers to watch forage!

There are albums that shimmer with impossible ambition -- beamed in from some parallel dimension where pop music never surrendered its claim to sophistication.

A collection of six ominous bird valentines set against a background of pink hearts. In the first one, a Canada Goose looks angry and hisses and the text says "Baby, I'll make you fall head over heels if you approach within 10m of my nest." In the second, an American white pelican opens its mouth to eat the reader and the text says "There are plenty of fish in the sea, but I want this one." In the third valentine, a Black Vulture looks suspiciously at the reader and the text says "I will love you until you die. And after that, I'll love you even more." A Southern Cassowary stands proudly against the heart-covered background. The text says "My wattles are red. My head is blue. My deadly reputation has been somewhat overblown, but I'd kill for you." In the fifth valentine, a Northern Giant-Petrel stands open-billed next to a large brown furry object, and the text says "Let's seal the deal by sharing a 3000 kg elephant seal carcass." In panel 6, a happy-looking Bearded Vulture holds a bone in its beak, and the text says "I love every part of you, especially your bones."

Ominous bird valentines.

Two edited stills from the animated film "Porco Rosso" 1: A portly human with the head of a cow pours a drink for themself while standing beneath an umbrella on a beach. A phone, a radio, and 4 crudely made tools are scattered about. 2: the cow-person is gearing a long single-lense flight goggle and giving a thumbs up to camera from the open cockpit of a plane they are flying

better a cow than a fascist

SPLEEN The roses they were all so red, and the ivy was all black. Dear, if you merely turn your head, all my old despair comes back. The sky was much too blue and clear, the sea too green, the air too bright. I must expect, and always fear, you’ll make some wild atrocious flight. I’m tired of the varnished holly-tree and of the shining boxwood too, tired of the field’s monotony and of everything, alas, but you!

everything, alas,
