Beautiful travel book about my favourite city ✨ would recommend this to everyone who has ever been to/planning to go to/dreaming about Paris. “Paris, for me, had become a kind of inner world through which I roamed in those difficult dawn hours when despair lies in wait for the sleeping walker ... Sometimes we do things, without thinking, that make no sense to us until much later and yet appear to have been prompted by the most alert part of our being.”

“Extreme seductiveness is at the boundary of horror“

“All I ask the haters - and I, too, am one - is that they strive to perfect their contempt, even consider bringing it to bear on poems, where it will be deepened, not dispelled, and where, by creating a place for possibility and present absences (like unheard melodies), it might come to resemble love.”

The light was especially beautiful this morning.

Continuing the early modern literature after a little break.

Stack of medieval and early modern literature - also my syllabus books 📚

My “Medieval and Early Modern Literature” course started yesterday with this classic.

First Ali Smith experience. Liking it so far.

Writing a proposal with a homemade cappuccino is probably the best way to spend this dreary afternoon.
