I will take a break from this book because I need to process and I have finals so have to space it out more

I feel like I’ve learned so much through this book tbh

“It’s why slave revolts succeed. They can’t fire on their own source of labour – it’d be like killing their own golden geese.”

“Photography, he thought, was also a kind of translation, and they had all come out the poorer for it.

Violets cast into crucibles, indeed.”

This book makes me so sad, I couldn’t say why tho
