Welcome to Litsy!

A nice collection of Oscar Wilde's plays. The Importance of being Earnest is so funny, I laughed out loud more than once, the concept of Bunburying absolutely brilliant.Lady Windermere's fan was probably my favourite, less funny but the characters have a bit more flesh. Some characters and dialogues of A woman of no importance reminded me a bit too much of The Picture of Dorian Gray and felt like a re-read at times, but I really enjoyed the plot⬇️

#WDNCW that we don‘t celebrate the 4th. We never really have…Autistic child that hates fireworks. Also I do not feel very festive. I do not want to celebrate our forefathers (that came from immigrant families) as we are a nation of immigrants & we are currently deporting immigrants. None of the signers of the Declaration of Independence are Indigenous. Plus that the oppression & exploitation of others was used to build this country. No thanks

Hey Littens,

I hope the motivation to read some classics is not affected by the heat (at least over here in Germany it is very, very hot). 🥵🌴

For the 3rd quarter, we'll tackle some stage writing!

Grab some lemonade, enjoy and tag me in your posts!☀️🏖

The setting for this historical fiction novel was the Richmond, VA theater fire of 1811, which was the biggest tragedy of its day. I appreciate the author‘s research and her efforts to bring to life real people who were present at the time. Where she lost me is when she wrote characters from 1811 as if they had the opinions of people living in 2020. Even though I agree with their opinions, women in 1811 would not have talked or behaved that way.

Definitely displays what life can be when someone is not in tune with what is important in life. It‘s not about how much you make, or the prestige that one has, it‘s not about what others think about you, it‘s about close relationships with the people you love and fulfilling quality time and memories with them. Call off, turn off the television, go to the beach, and read a good book. Don‘t dwell on the past and enjoy the present.

I picked up this short play for a reading challenge on Goodreads. I‘ve never read any Sartre before but this was compelling. Three individuals wake up to find themselves in hell. I‘ll post my favorite quote from the end of the book below, with spoiler tags.👇🏻 I think it sums things up pretty accurately. 4⭐️

#JuneSpecials Picnic. When I looked up songs that deal with picnic, thus song was included. I don't see it, but since Led Zeppelin is the best group ever! I'll take their word for it. Ha! Dwyer Mak'er @Eggs @Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks

So good. Took me way too long to get into but that was all me and too many freakin‘ mundane things to attend to (like cleaning and j-o-b). Gotta love a book that upon finishing the very last sentence, tears threaten and so I must laugh instead. Pick! Stack it!

Grand so.

“It‘s hope that makes us afraid, and I remind myself that a man should be grateful for his fears, ‘cause it means he has something to lose and to win.”

“Directors without a producer are like a ship without a sail, the medium of wind to endeavors nautical being equivalent to coin in all theatrical,…”

Some really great sentences in this! 🌟 #debut #drama #ToF
