“Each individual of this species is locked up inside his own skull, his
own personal experience"

Whenever I look at my currently reading and see this book I get angry at myself for starting it. Don't judge a book by its cover is a handy adage when the most boring book ever has a sickass cover like this one

slump inducing 😔

Nope, Lessing and I still don't get on. I really need to accept this.

"The shimmer is strong. Light. Different textures of light. There is the light we know. That is, the ordinary light let’s say of a day with cloud. Then, sunlight, which is a yellow dance added to the first.
Then the sparkling waves of heat, heat waves, making light when light
makes them.Then, the inner light, the fast shimmer, like a suspended snow
in the air.Shimmer even at night when no moon or sun and no light."
