‘Translation means doing violence upon the original, means warping and distorting it for foreign, unintended eyes. So then where does that leave us? How can we conclude, except by acknowledging that an act of translation is then necessarily always an act of betrayal?’

LOVEEE THIS BOOK SM

"Every portrait that is painted with feeling is a portrait of the artist, not of the sitter. The sitter is merely the accident, the occasion. It is not he who is revealed by the painter; it is rather the painter who, on the coloured canvas, reveals himself. The reason I will not exhibit this picture is that I am afraid that I have shown in it the secret of my own soul." –Basil Hallward

I'M IN LOVE WITH THIS BOOK!!!

i read this book while listen to So Long, London, and now i can't stop crying

I'm super confused rn. all the characters in this book are suspicious

it's so confusing yet so intense. i could not put it down (really)

it's so boring yet so intense that i could not put it down (*confusing)
