Welcome to Litsy!

I finished A Heart so White on Friday. It wasn't bad by any stretch, but it didn't speak to me. A shame because the main character is an interpreter & I love reading about linguists 😑
Today, I made fideuà, a Catalan dish similar to paella, but with pasta instead of rice. I first ate it on holiday in Sitges, and have been making it from time to time ever since: it's a good Sunday lunch option for us!

The truth never shines forth, as the saying goes, because the only truth is that which is known to no one and remains untransmitted, that which is not translated into words or images, that which remains concealed and unverified, which is perhaps why we recount so much or even everything, to make sure that nothing has ever really happened, not once it‘s been told.

You can't read whole day. If you don't start in the morning. (March 30th, 2016)

The whole story is interlaced with few ideas, in particular, all ideas are derived from the concept of obligation. The parallel theme to the metaphysical themes is language, use of words and interpretation of them. I have some minor issues with the story, but despite that, this is an excellent book for all of those who like to read/contemplate about relations on Proustian way. And-this is the book with the best opening chapter that I can recall‼�

Sunday breakfast - sun, good book, English tea with cream, and pancakes with steamed apricots in spices 😋

A few necessary and unpleasant errands ... and my reward - visiting #library ♥�

Last weekend, I didn't have time to read ... but despite that - life is still good ��

Just went to put some books away at the beach-house and found this rather hefty 'to read' shelf 😳 . It'll be a busy holiday! 📚

I love Marias's long looping sentences.
