“I run through the night. I am alone now except for the crow and hunger. Unfed, the swarm shapes and reshapes inside of me. The world is big and empty, but inside of me is even bigger, even emptier. Hunger makes me vast and bottomless. I run and I run and I run. I eat the road. I devour it.”

“A town is a thing like a colonial animal. A town has a nervous system and a head and shoulders and feet. A town is a thing separate from all other towns, so that there are no two towns alike.”

“Sometimes I wish I could photosynthesize so that just by being, just by shimmering at the meadow’s edge or floating lazily on a pond, I could be doing the work of the world while standing silent in the sun”

“Sometimes I just have a feeling. Like a sense of being loved by God, almost. But it's not really something that can be explained.

She lets out a trembling kind of laugh. Well, if there is a God, she says, I'm sure he loves you very much.

He lowers his eyes. Yeah, I can feel that sometimes, he says. Like when I'm with you, I can. If you don't mind me saying that.”

Himadri ॐ ˚꩜ is starting Mirabai: Ecstatic Poems
“I would like my own body to turn into a heap of incense and sandalwood and you set a torch to it.
When I’ve fallen down to gray ashes, smear me on your shoulders and chest.”


Other than some discrepancies in the translation, this was beautiful.

Crime and Punishment

Himadri ॐ ˚꩜ is 9% done with The White Book
“Each moment is a leap forward from the brink of an invisible cliff, where time’s keen edges are constantly renewed. We lift our foot from the solid ground of all our life lived thus far and take that perilous step out into the empty air. Not because we can claim any particular courage, but because there is no other way.“

I’m smitten. The world building and the magic structure of this is pure science and fiction. It is brilliant and gripping. I can’t wait to read the rest.

“That’s not the point, Milena, as far as I’m concerned you are not a woman, you’re a girl, I’ve never seen anyone who was more of a girl than you, and girl that you are, I don’t dare offer you my hand, my dirty, twitching, clawlike, fidgety, unsteady, hot-cold hand.”

Himadri ॐ ˚꩜ is 76% done with The Summer Book
“She turned on her side and put her arm over her head. Between the arm of her sweater, her hat, and the white reeds, she could see a triangle of sky, sea, and sand—quite a small triangle. There was a blade of grass in the sand beside her, and between its sawtoothed leaves it held a piece of seabird down.”

“Yes, tomorrow Gore will go out hunting again. One thing God has granted him is an excellent aim. He is very good at killing things. Things, sometimes people. He pulls a trigger and knows himself loved.”

I’m enjoying this book thoroughly, other than the random complex vocab every few pages (which is also fun to look up tbh), it has a unique premise. Can’t wait to see how it ends.
