scans_dailyThe Canon's one of those curated by Russ Kick - it's two volumes.
The Psycho excerpt's from the second one - it's not from Alfred Hitchcock's movie, but Robert Bloch's original novel. The woman who shows up at Norman Bates' motel is Mary Crane, and the physical part of Norman's deceptive mildness doesn't come from looking like a 28-year old Anthony Perkins.
The excerpt starts where the book does - Norman reading.
( His book's anthropological. )
