#FoodandLit This is a book of philosophy and confessions. I don‘t think I was in the right headspace to read about a white, narcissistic, man this week. The writing style felt its 1950‘s. The character is contradictory and I‘ve had enough of that lately but Camus did have several quotes that made me stop and think.
I made Dutch Baby Pancakes and they were delicious. I‘d like to play around with some other flavors and order some stroop syrup 😋
Currently reading the tagged book for my Classic of the Month (CotM) and wanted to update myself on my personal reading goal for the year 📚 A Happy Death is Camus‘ first novel and has the most author insert of all his novels. One of my favorites of all time is L‘Etranger and I‘m determined to read all his novels.
I purchased another Camus book as the first one I read, The Stranger was so though provoking and well done! The title of this one alone is intriguing!

I have listened to this twice in a row now and I have come to the conclusion that I cannot listen to philosophy texts on audiobook. Perhaps it‘s because I can‘t take the time to digest what I‘m reading the same way I can with a physical book (unless I pause it every other minute).
It is no fault of Camus; there is some great stuff here, but even Edoardo Ballerini‘s fantastic voice and impeccable delivery couldn‘t keep me entirely engaged.
