so-soJodorowski's fanciful retelling of his family's history mixes the lofty with the loam. Beautiful stories about lion tamers learning to read by ordering letters around like beasts sit next to blasé recountings of sexual abuse, incest, assault, and mass killings. There's value in stories about tarot cards that preach worker solidarity, provided you can tolerate Jodorowsky's instinct to build a nest feathered with mysticism, pubic hair, and trauma.
pick?/ ⭐️
Penso che lo dovrò rileggere
Fino alla fine ho aspettato mi spiegasse qualcosa, ma quel qualcosa non è mai arrivato
Un libro che ti lascia senza fiato e piuttosto perplessa, con passaggi straordinariamente toccanti e profondi e altri che ti fanno dubitare di quello che stai leggendo
Ho la sensazione di non aver recepito tutto quello che il libro voleva dirmi, e per questo ci vediamo alla prossima lettura per una recensione finale
pickThis has been on my shelves since I went to an exhibit about Miller and Man Ray. I think the cover should read “Her Many Lives” instead of “A Life” because this book shows that she was not someone content to stay within the boundaries of expectations. She was a Vogue model, a muse, a photographer, a war correspondent; over and over she reinvented herself and pursued her desires. An interesting look at a complex but important figure. #24in2024

Well now:
1. Samantha Heather Mackey , because she is me. She is.
2. Hmmm... Dracula? Walter Hartright?
3. Done. I just finished the #Netgalley ARC and while I didn't like the last two chapters and Epilogue too much, I really really liked this insanely twisty book. It often went directions that had me literally gasping out loud.

My heart is full. ❤️ Got to travel to Kansas City this past weekend where I lived for 10+ years. I was spoiled by my girlfriends there AND I had the immense pleasure of spending an afternoon with @vivastory. After being friends on Litsy since 2016, it was so great to finally meet Scott in person. ☺️ The two cool books are from him. So thoughtful! My only disappointment was that I missed seeing Taylor Swift. Next time! 😀
