The Blue Fox - Sjón

So. ****ing. Beautiful.

Halfway through Red Dragon but EH it's boring so I'm going to go lie on the swing outside and start this:

The world opens its good eye a crack. A ptarmigan belches. The streams trickle under their glazing of ice, dreaming of spring, when they'll swell to a life-threatening force. Smoke curls up from mounds of snow here and there on the mountainsides - these are their farms.

Everything here is a uniform blue, apart from the glitter of the tops. It is winter in the Dale.


Seriously I'm losing my mind for this book rn.

I'll have to get it! I'll put it in my to-reads

Just finished Dan Savage's American Savage

I'm in the middle of re-reading The Great Gatsby, a Sherlock Holmes collection, and I'm thinking of starting The Grapes of Wrath because i'd like to have read the book before i see the move

Never see the movie before you read the book. Everything is Illuminated was everything I'd hoped it would be, and I cried twice, which would've been a dozen more times if I didn't already know what major events were going to happen.

Now, on to:

****ing hell, is this hard to read. McCarthy doesn't use quotation marks, doesn't use apostrophes, doesn't inform you when a character is speaking or who is doing the speaking, and this is just unreasonably hard to follow.

"He looked at him. He smoked, and he nodded at him."

WHOSE ACTION IS WHOSE argh, the whole ****ing thing is like this.

That's weird, I myself just started reading 1Q84.

Kafka on the Shore, among his others, is too good.
