Welcome to Litsy!

Really enjoyed this at The Limetree on Friday night 📜

A great little read for my time in Dublin☘

'It is not the literal past, the 'facts' of history that shape us, but images of the past embodied in language.'

Felt fitting for my weekend in Dublin☘☘☘

Translations at the National! Feeling so lucky to be here. I loved this play so much when I first read it, incredible to think that must have been like ten years ago now when I was thirteen or fourteen, and I‘m so happy to finally be seeing it live. Interval now and I can‘t remember at all what happens in the second half so excited to see

Along with my #FeedAReader package, I also received some other good bookish mail! 📚❤️

It's hard to believe that a whole week has gone by since the first #CentralPALittens (I'm taking liberties in creating the hashtag) meetup! These are the books I picked up at Winding Way Books; I hope to read a few of them in June:
•GOD WENT TO BEAUTY SCHOOL by Cynthia Roland (poetry)
•IT CAN'T HAPPEN HERE by Sinclair Lewis (fiction)
•TRANSLATIONS by Brian Friel (play)
•THE HEIDI CHRONICLES & UNCOMMON WOMEN AND OTHERS by Wendy Wasserstein (plays)

This story revolves around English officers sent to Ireland to rename cities and landmarks with "more recognizable" names. It's short and sweet, with a tragic ending, but has a few funny moments when two people who don't speak the same language say the same thing and the other doesn't understand. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ #litsyreadingchallenge #set150yearsago @jessica #LitsyAtoZauthors @BookishMarginalia

More book mail, friends! Just waiting on one more book from Amazon and I'll finally have all the books I need to read this term 😍🎉

Amazing postcolonial literature. Definitely will read again in the future.

Assigned reading afternoons 📚
