Roth was a writer who fled Germany. Owada once asked him, when in his LA home, how come his books were all over the place, not following any obvious order. He said that all his books had fallen on the floor after an earthquake, and he’d just put them back like that. I like the comparison w/ war: “books that had lost their place during a disaster had been randomly put back on the shelf wherever there was room”

kuang should stick to historical fantasy. please and thank you.

je vais lire cette roman au français… je meurs😵‍💫😵‍💫😵‍💫😵‍💫

i’m starting to think i got the wrong epub because a booker prize winner can’t possibly be this bad?

what a shitshow

“Power is the capacity to terrorize, to use self and strength to inculcate fear. The acts of terror run the gamut from rape to battery to sexual abuse of children to war to murder to maiming to torture to enslaving to kidnapping to verbal assault to (...). The symbols of terror are commonplace and utterly familiar: the gun, the knife, the bomb (...). Even more significant is the hidden symbol of terror, the penis. ”

no entiendo nada... es una historia diferente de la posguerra española, entiendo la crítica y alegoría, pero es que las escenas de intenso son tan asquerosamente explícitas que no llego a entender qué pretende el autor con esto????

Traumatiz-hada

Vamos a partir la guardia pero me voy a meter por el culo el resto del libro

I never realized one of my favorite movies as a kid was based on a book. This is KMS material. Can't wait to devour this, I used to watch that movie on loop.

bfff me lo acabo de empezar y ya he aprendido una palabra nueva ''alambicado/a''
necesito ponerme a tope con el francés para leerle en su idioma original chiques

I feel like this should have been a take notes kind of book but I'm still enjoying learning stuff about languages without necessarily jotting everything down
