34 stories exploring the themes of memory, loss, identity, politics and human connectionโ€” loved the diversity in its literary styles, most having hue of quietness and bit melancholic to me, less twists and nothing that happy ending

An unbelievable ride. I donโ€™t watch many movies but this was a Statham summer action flick w sneering leftist French wit exploding off the pages. Machette describes Gerfautโ€™s wife as having a โ€œbig creamy assโ€ and no one writes a better gunfight scene. Wet hot Machette Summer!!!

'I was a Flower of the mountain yes when I put the rose in my hair like the Andalusian girls used or shall I wear a red yes and how he kissed me under the Moorish wall and I thought well as well him as another and then I asked him with my eyes to ask again yes and then he asked me would I yes to say yes my mountain flower and first I put my arms around him yes and drew him down to me so he could feel my breasts all perfume yes and his heart going like mad and yes I said yes I will Yes.' I have read this passage countless times, and I confess I have never been able to do so without getting goosebumps and feeling on the verge of joyful tears.

Happy Bloomsday! Finished the reread last week, after rereading individual chapters. What a monument of language set starkly against a rapidly atomizing world, carried by the prophetic voice which possesses each soul. Cyclops and Oxen of the Sun were this reread's highlights.
One of my students wanted to join the Ulysses reading group, but tapped out because of its difficulty. That's completely okay! We have entire lifetimes to return to art and engage ourselves once again. Instead, they asked for a list of books influenced by Ulysses. Try them too!

"Kami mau melapor ke polisi, polisi punya dapur SPPG. Kami mau melapor ke TNI, tentara punya dapur SPPG. Kami mau melapor ke DPR RI, anggota DPR banyak yang punya dapur SPPG," kata Iman Zanatul Haeri, seorang guru, di hadapan Mahkamah Konstitusi.

Buku sastra apa yang sering kamu baca ulang, meskipun kamu sudah hapal alur ceritanya?
Jangan alpa juga dalam membaca karya fiksi atau sastra. Terutama karya-karya sebelum era akal imitasi. Kalau sering membaca buku, keberanian kita sebagai manusia akan muncul dengan sendirinya. Jika diperhatikan kebanyakan karya sastra adalah cerita tentang, perjuangan, kegagalan, atau jatuh dan bangun lagi. Umunya selalu kisah orang-orang yang bangkit setelah hancur oleh kekecewaan dan peristiwa menyedihkan, atau kisah tentang mereka yang tetap melanjutkan hidup meski luka itu menjadi trauma seumur hidup. Ketika kita sering membaca kisah-kisah seperti itu, tanpa sadar kita jadi ingin menyemangati tokoh utamanya. Lalu kebiasaan itu merembet: kita pun ingin menyemangati orang lain, dan akhirnya menyemangati diri kita sendiri. Dari situlah lahir keberanian yang bisa sederhana tapi kuat: seperti bisikan di hati kita sendiri: aku pun harus berusaha hidup lebih giat.

To be loved is to be changed but itโ€™s my battered copy of East of Eden that bears various traces of life (used to carry it around as if it contained half of my soul).

Some days I love bookshelves that look like a rainbow. Other days, all I want is a shelf full of earthy, muted tones that feels calm and comforting. Being a book lover means constantly falling in love with completely opposite aesthetics and somehow wanting both at the same time. โ€จWhich one are you: Team Colorful ๐ŸŒˆ or Team Earth Tones ๐ŸคŽ?
