"We must mend what has been torn apart, make justice imaginable again in a world so obviously unjust, give happiness a meaning once more..."
from Lyrical and Critical essays by Albert Camus
i wish albert camus had a merch
finished 'infocracia' and byung-chul han is really amazing. since i was at my first graduation, he's been a great deal in my way of seeing things. i'm really glad my adviser told me start reading han.
have you all a great week. 🌧🤍
1am, i'm reading 'hiperculturalidade', and it's so good. probably, i'll be finishing it on thursday or friday.
also, i read today 'blue horses' by mary oliver and liked it. wasn't too invested tho, but it's great.
and in the morning, i was able to read a lot of 'the idiot' by elif batuman. this book is making me so happy! her writing is amazing and just to be in selin's mind is fascinating.
be kind to yourselves 🤍🌧
started 'água viva' today. my first clarice! her writing is wow, i've been annotating a lot. so many thoughts already. just wild!
i was gonna go for run today, but gave up, it's been one of those lazy days. probably do some yoga before go to bed.
tomorrow i feel like it's gonna be a good day. (probably won't though) - let's keep it positive.
that's a goal: be more positive! 🤍🌧
i feel like clarice lispector broke me and saved me at the same time. viscerally affected by each sentence from 'água viva'.
i've been feeling down today and it's been too hot lately. i tried to read a bit more of 'infocracia' with willow as a friend support, but i had to rewrite an essay for one of my classes. unfortunately, i didn't do that either. i just existed and that was it.
finished chouette tho, and i loved it. i'm very much into magical realism. the writing was definitely an experience!
and i decided to treat myself with a skincare night, maybe i'll try to finally watch aftersun. or just read a bit more. 🤍🌧
