yes, Cavafy, destroy me once more! at least now I understand

here we go again… I’d feel lost in this world without Cavafy and Duras

“Now that I’m dying it seems much simpler than it ever did before. Living, I mean. There is no parallel universe. There is no “what could have been if only.” In some ways this has brought me a great deal of peace. In other ways it is bitter. How cruel life is only this long. Now that I see clearly, I’d like more time.”

“From high up on the shoulders of a squire, the six-year-old Katherine looked around her in wonder as her elder sister, Elizabeth, slipped off her shoes.” why am I emotional 😭

Marguerite please destroy my soul once again 🙏🏻

“No pomp, no ceremony, just a dawn meeting of lovers. As the sun rose, and the month of May began, a union was forged that would remain unbreakable for the next nineteen years.” 😩🙏🏻🌿

what’s the plot? 😭 I feel like the only interesting character is Wenzhi and even he’s a bit washed up, at least at the moment

it’s gonna take a while for me to finish this if I don’t hurry up because why is it so depressing? 😭

We’re still in August…

Girls what 😭 this book starts in August!!

Girls I’m reading again 😭🙏🏻
