BOOK RECOMMENDATION SUNDAY! Picking some titles that I have finished but have stuck with me. ♊️ “What was it it? Say. Tell me. No, you won’t- you never do, have, will. It wasn’t fair. They had come from the same cell, had lived nine months curled around one another. They should have already learned each other’s secrets. And he had given his up, all of them. Is that the way it was supposed to be with twins? Gemini, Castor and Pollux? I already told you all my secrets-all of them. But you keep yours, you hide them. Miserly, sly, secretive Holland, angry half the time, indifferent the rest; twins are supposed to be together, aren’t they? Aren’t they?” ♊️ Thomas Tryon (1926-1991) originally pursued acting but turned to writing after suffering legendary cruelty at the hands of Otto Preminger (for more about Preminger’s famous mistreatment of actors listen to the podcast “ You Must Remember This “ particularly the ones focused on Jean Sebring). This an subtly eerie and shape-shifting novel that is perfect reading for October. And yet, it is more then just a psychological thriller set around twins. It’s also a meditation (really a lament) about childhood, lost innocence, regret, pain and memory. I’ll say no more as it’s good to know almost nothing about this book before you get to the twist ending. Happy reading, y’all! ♊️ : #booksrecommendation #spookyreads #october #theother #thomastryon #newyorkreviewofbooks #classiclit #classicliterature #literary #literarycommunity #bookstagram #readersofinstagram #writersofinstagram #🥀 #blackwritersofinstagram #weirdblackgirl #protectweirdblackgirlsatallcost #deadauthors #biblophile #asecondofwhimsy #romanticism #BooksBooksBooks #fallvibes #spookyseason #halloween2020 #🎃 (at Hartford, CT) https://www.instagram.com/p/CGN63CmFtrf/?igshid=mykg1g3xjxht
