The weight of the book sinking in your palms as you read, cold lemonade, breeze.
To be finished by August:
All books by Oliver Sacks
All books by Francoise Sagan
Virginia Woolf's diaries
Madness and Civilization: A History of Insanity in the Age of Reason - Michael Foucault
Anything on Philosophy of Science
The Selfish Gene
The Middlesex - Jeffrey Eugenides
Poetry by Philip Larkin, Ted Hughes, Charles Bukowski (!), Auden
The Real Van Gogh: The Artist and His Letters
Such lavish joy of savouring the remnants of trees and ink, of absorbing past knowledge and intellect and emotions and milieux.
You're going to read Middlesex! I loved that book... not because of the condition he has but the journey of self-discovery he went through from being a girl to the man he is at the end.
RépondreSupprimerI'll try Foucault's book soon... it might just be helpful for next year ;)
