"I was reading Auster's New York Trilogy, but took a break from it for this book. This far, this is just what I felt like reading. It's chaotic and a bit over the top in just the right way, as well as beautifully written and smart. I hope it continues like this. I do need to look up a lot of things while reading, but I enjoy that type of books." Apr 07, 2026 02:37AM

Mario Rigoni Stern
“Abeti, betulle, paesi, città, betulle, paesi, corsi d'acqua gelati, ragazzi sui pattini, una slitta nella pianura, una casupola, abeti. Allegria portava la vista di una grossa lepre che sbucava spaurita dalle siepi para-neve che fiancheggiavano la ferrovia; stupore e poesia i piccoli branchi di caprioli che dall'orlo dei boschi guardavano passare il nostro treno coperto di ghiaccioli e pareva impossibile che nel mondo ci fosse la guerra e noi armati.”
Mario Rigoni Stern, Il bosco degli urogalli

Mario Rigoni Stern
“«E a sera, attorno al fuoco, fumando trinciato forte, ci raccontavamo storie e vicende della vita [...]
Lassù la montagna è silenziosa e deserta. La neve che in questi giorni è caduta abbondante ha cancellato i sentieri dei pastori, le aie dei carbonai, le trincee della Grande guerra, le avventure dei cacciatori. E sotto quella neve vivono i miei ricordi».”
Mario Rigoni Stern, Sentieri sotto la neve

Mario Rigoni Stern
“Quando lo guardavo in viso non mi sentivo di fissarlo a lungo e quando, molto di rado, sorrideva, faceva male al cuore.”
Mario Rigoni Stern, Il sergente nella neve

Joseph Conrad
“And because you not always can keep your eyes shut there comes the real trouble--the heart pain--the world pain.
I tell you, my friend, it is not good for you to find you cannot make your dream come true, for the reason that you not strong enough are, or not clever enough. . . . Ja! . . .
And all the time you are such a fine fellow too! Wie? Was? Gott im Himmel! How can that be? Ha! ha! ha!"
’The shadow prowling amongst the graves of butterflies laughed boisterously.”
Joseph Conrad, Lord Jim

Ben Aaronovitch
“Being a seasoned Londoner, Martin gave the body the 'London once-over' - a quick glance to determine whether this was a drunk, a crazy or a human being in distress. The fact that it was entirely possible for someone to be all three simultaneously is why good-Samaritanism in London is considered an extreme sport - like base-jumping or crocodile wrestling.”
Ben Aaronovitch, Rivers of London
