Only a fraction of a percent of our planet's water is drinkable.
This number hasn't seemed to be a major concern for Americans,
since advertisers continuously bombard consumers with brand-name
waters, selling the idea that one specific sort is actually better

third-world families and children around the globe. Each day,
millions of people in underprivileged countries are affected by
waterborne diseases, which are threatening the lives of young
children. Can you even imagine living in a world where finding
drinkable water is a daily struggle?

Lorrie Moore's third collection of short stories begins with an
epigraph, ""It is not news that we live in a world / Where beauty
is unexplainable / And suddenly ruined / And has its own routines.
We are often far / From home in a dark town, and our griefs / Are

Streep and Philip Seymour Hoffman, respectively, engage in tense
verbal exchanges that conceal an underlying web of unspoken
controversy. As the title suggests, the film is a dissection of
human suspicion, our internal compass that wavers between doubt and
certainty.
