From what book is this opening line?

 

It was a queer, sultry summer, the summer they electrocuted the Rosenbergs, and I didn't know what I was doing in New York.

"The Bell Jar" by Sylvia Plath.

 

For those curious about what comes next: " I'm stupid about executions. The idea of being electrocuted makes me sick, and that's all there was to read about in the papers-goggle-eyed headlines staring up at me on every street corner...It had nothing to do with me, but I couldn't help wondering what it would be like, being burned alive all along your nerves. I thought it must be the worst thing in the world."

OK - here's one for you - from what movie is the following dialogue exchange?

 

He: (Trying to get a date) "What's your phone number?"

She: "It's in the book"

He: "OK, what's your name?"

She: "That's in the book too"

Sounds like dialog from "Chastity" to me, though I've only seen it once so I'm not sure.

] Oh I know the movie--just don't know it's name :(

 

BUT, the girl works in a book store and has written down the name and number on the inside of the book and he thinks she means phone book and somehow loses the book and years later after their lives have moved on and and turned full circle (like that phrase:) he hunts her down by trying to find the book for starters......right??? tell me--tell me!!!!
