Catching up from yesterday‘s #austere prompt. I‘ve have still not read this one yet.
“On any other day she would have stood barefoot on the wet grass listening to the mockingbirds' early service; she would have pondered over the meaninglessness of silent, austere beauty renewing itself with every sunrise and going ungazed at by half the world.”
“She looked like a woman of narrow experience and rigid conscience, which she was; but there was a saving something about her mouth which, if it had been ever so slightly developed, might have been considered indicative of a sense of humor.” #austere #QuotsyJul21
#QuotsyJul21 Day 12: #Austere
Austere: severe or strict in manner, attitude, or appearance.
Everything about this novel is austere: the setting, Ethan‘s wife Zeena, forbidden emotions, and despair.

#SpringSentiments Day 25: The book cover does look slightly #Austere - but the cheesecake baklava is the shiznit.
