Status Updates From The Rainbow

There’s plenty of great reasons to read classics, but I find the reminder that humanity has hardly changed to be the most gratifying.

“A shiver, a sickness of new birth passed over her, the flame leapt up him, under his skin. She wanted it, this new life from him, with him, yet she must defend herself against it, for it was a destruction.”

This book continues to amaze me. Just when I think I know where we are going lawrence hits me with such profound and beautiful sadness and passion. Odd I find mysrlf thinking of 100 years of solitude a book I have never been able to finish. I think Marquez wanted to create this sense of passion and depth and magic across the generations but he lacked the depth and subtle beautywe find here. Beauty like a Rainbow.
