“She wanted to go for a walk in the woods with her dog. She wanted not to return. Her hand on Ash’s back quivered, and the tall dog turned her head to gaze up at her person’s face. Whatever it is, I’m here too.” her relationship with ash... everything reminds me of laura palmer. “When I was just about your age, I had a cat who looked just like yours. I called him Jupiter, and he was probably the best friend around.”

“She thought that if she could not see over his shoulder, see that there was more of the world than his encircling arm, she would yet go mad.”

“She looked briefly into his face and saw there the look she had spent the last two years eluding; the look she found treacherous but with no word for the treachery. She had the sudden thought that these last two years of her life had been pointless, that she had learned nothing that was of any use to her, if she still could not escape that look in her father’s eyes.”

“Had Ash not come to her, she might have discovered greed instead, for her world as she understood it had ended with her mother’s death; and what she had learned by that death was that she was alone, and had always been alone, and had grown accustomed to it without knowing what she was accustoming herself to.” “She was fortunate, for Ash happened to her before the minister or his kind did.”

it's indeed a horror story to lose a female loved one to marriage.

“He will be convinced that male power can only be maintained by an absolutely cruel and ruthless subjugation of women.” [...] “The penis causes pain, but the pain enhances the pleasure. It is as if the ability of the penis to cause pain were an intrinsic quality of the penis, not a use to which the penis is put. The pain also authenticates the power of the penis— its size, the force behind it.”

so far the ~vibes~ are immaculate

“I’m so afraid of death. I’m so afraid that no one will believe me until after I have taken the seat that I fear has been saved for me in the darkness.”

“I told him I had been having awful nightmares. All of them about the woods, the paths, the tree, footprints, the sounds of an owl. . . . I felt death in these dreams and I also felt lust. Lust like I had known when it was fresh to me and it wasn’t tired and worn-out and bettered only by violence.”

“My life, I mean. Just hours before the dancing, I was in my room buried deep in a very, very different world. I hope I never have to choose between the two. Each one makes me happy for different reasons.” demian core

The relationship of the men to the woman in the photograph is not fantasy; it is symbol, meaningful because it is rooted in reality. / She is a fantasy, as opposed to a symbol: the power attributed to her nowhere resonates in the real world.

this book is breaking my heart in unprecedented levels, it's crazy to think jennifer wrote this... it does feel like laura herself, it feels like she's real

i think the author probably believes (like most people in the world) that heterosexuality is natural, her sexuality would be more nuance otherwise, because she rejects everything the other women say but that lol

surprised we didn't get a film adaptation for this one

wow.

sunset caroline polachek the devil is human aurora HEATHENS AURORA let me make this spotify playlist

i'm too woke for this shit 😂

her father is disgusting, poor girl

i hate ulisses so i tell myself that this is just her internal dialogues; the proof being clarice's dog, that's her wish to have an external self trying to move her forward. i'm very intelligent.
