But my favorite Blake piece was used in a popular novel to motivate and adorn the bad guy. The book is 'Red Dragon' by Thomas Harris and it is when we first meet Hannibal Lector. (He was not the 'bad guy' in this book.)

The piece is called 'The Great Red Dragon and the Woman Clothed with the Sun'. Here is an image of it.



It has faded over time, but I find it very powerful. (Not like Dollarhyde did, of course.)
