Welcome to Litsy!

This book is STUNNING. One of the strangest stories I‘ve ever read, but it approaches love and loss with unflinching rawness and honesty. If you would have told me a book about a man mutating into a shark would be one of my favourite books of the year, I would have laughed at you. But, here we are. It‘s poetry. It‘s prose. It‘s art and paint and canvas. It‘s a love story. But mostly about self love and selfless love. Read it. Five stars.

This is a book with very little plot and lots of stream of consciousness. A woman is intrigued by a couple she doesn‘t know but meets every day in a breakfast place in Madrid. One day the husband is killed and she can‘t stop herself from talking to the woman.
Not much more happens yet it is an engaging read with some interesting thoughts.

Things take the time they take. Don't worry.
How many roads did St. Augustine follow
before he became St. Augustine?

There are a few collections out there that you can never read enough times, that you open and immediately it‘s like coming home.

For the last two hours, I've been asleep, sitting on a fashionable novel. It's the only part of the body you can read it with.

Première lecture sur le balcon cette année, accompagnée de chocolats et réchauffée par les derniers rayons. Mon moment lecture a été interrompu par le coucher du soleil m'indiquant que s'en était assez pour aujourd'hui!
