In Praise of Forgetting: Historical Memory and Its Ironies | David Rieff

Forgot to do a #bookmail post this last Monday. Refreshing the readings for my History, Memory, Commemoration grad seminar.

BookishMarginalia These look interesting! 3y

tournevis @BookishMarginalia Tagged and Memory (Tortell, Turin, Young) especially so. Not without problems and should be used as a start to broader reflection, but very thought-provoking (edited) 3y

tournevis @BookishMarginalia I added Memory, tagged as a whole to the readings, plus chapters from all the others, except On the Art of Being Canadian, that would have been too difficult to contextualize in a history seminar (I really like it though). 3y

Another excellent addition in the Pandava Quartet series! Which is apparently not going to be a quartet, I heard there will be a 5th book. 😫 I was kind of hoping next month‘s release would be the conclusion. The cliffhanger endings are getting to me!

Using this for the #pop21 forgetting prompt, since their is a lot of backstory about one character who made the choice to give up many of their memories.

Bk7 & my last for #FabulousFebruary is done. It was an intriguing book, it‘s a very similar style to Laura Purcell & Sarah Perry. They all have a very lyrical way of writing & all are either Edwardian or Victorian or earlier. And they have a very similar sense of despair. #ReadingWomensChallenge #QueerLoveStory #LitsyAtoZ2021 #LetterC #PennyPerPage #437c #Pop21 #Forgetting #PickYourPoison #NeedReading2021 #BookspinBingo #BooklistQueenChallenge

The Notebook | Nicholas Sparks

“We fell in love, despite our differences, and once we did, something rare and beautiful was created. For me, love like that has only happened once, and that's why every minute we spent together has been seared in my memory. I'll never forget a single moment of it.”
