Status Updates From L'amour courtois ou Le coup...

now that I’m out of the first chapter, I’m enjoying this a bit more. he’s referencing, he’s sourcing, he’s not just talking out his ass (though there’s plenty of that too).

my waitress blessed me cuz I stifled a laugh at this book and she thought I’d sneezed. it was just Markale calling water in a tale reminiscent of amniotic fluid, that crossing the river is a kind of second birth. sure bud.

fucking weird. reads like quack uncle rambling. it’s easier when I think of it as one big opinion piece, as opposed to scholarly work. I’ve read that the author isn’t respected in the academic field and I get why. also, typo on the back cover? was this book even edited?

“Roma is amor backwards. really makes you think!” reminds me of that “the lifekind. perchance” meme lol

probably will not finish
