Welcome to Litsy!

I have known for years that my favorite band‘s name is based on this play. I finally took the time to listen. It is a very emotional, moving story. A character knowingly sends faulty airplane parts from his factory during WWII. It causes the death of twenty-one pilots. The character tries to justify his decision. Twenty One Pilots explains their name is a constant reminder to make the right decision even though it might be the hard decision.

This play is touching on so many levels. A son MIA; war crimes; a tricky romantic relationship. This one is devastating but poignant. I‘m a little embarrassed I haven‘t read any Arthur Miller until this year.

Mi gran problema con el psicoanálisis es la idea preconcebida de que el sufrimiento es un error, o una señal de debilidad, o incluso señal de enfermedad. Cuando, de hecho, tal vez las mayores verdades que conocemos proceden del sufrimiento personal.

Played George in my college‘s production junior year. Perhaps the most tragic of Miller‘s canon.

#Movie2BookRecs #emmawatson 28. So apparently Emma Watson was in this movie. I thought the movie was blah, but the book was pretty good. I‘ve heard it‘s not really true but oh well.

5⭐️

I‘ve always been fascinated by the idea of Marilyn Monroe.This book really made me see her in a whole different light. Future MM reading/audio will definitely be done later.

So this week in #bfc @wanderinglynn I managed to hit my books, swimming and home lunch target but a day working at home but me under my steps at only 64k ! bUT came out stronger with a lovely walk through central London‘s last night after seeing the fabulous All My Sons at the Old Vic

This play rocked me. The phrase 'I was shook' has never been more apt. I felt like I was discovering a story no one had ever read before, simply because I was rather surprised that I! had never read it before, and it was SO GOOD. Heartbreaking and shocking but an amazing story.
