Welcome to Litsy!

My score at the 10¢ / item at the library sale today. Anyone familiar with Frank Bidart? I know nothing about him, but a skinny book of poetry is worth a try.

Compelling, paradoxical in its writing, in its communication, in its digressions, in the narrator's comments during the story, in the story itself.
If you read with the right eyes, with a look that goes beyond reality, you can understand the author's denunciation of the materiality of modern man, the church and politics. And he does it with biting sarcasm (which I personally love).
Definitely love it

This book is disturbing, exciting and complex. It makes me think. It‘s HARD to read did to the structure and style. So I am both reading and listening at he same time and it helps a lot. #JoseSaramago #audiobook

Last week was TKmaxx opening day at CentrO. I managed to drive there today with my mum... I know... I own too many notebooks, but this one was too cute to resist. 😍

In this work, "Pequenas Memórias", José Saramago brings us a piece of his young himself.
In spite of his characteristic and pleasurable prose, and due to an intentional rigor non chronological, I missed a leading thread in the author's memories. #josesaramago #portugueseauthors #nobelprize #bookreview #smallnemories

Because, sir, in case you don't know it, words move, they change from one day to the next, they are as unstable as shadows, are themselves shadows, which both are and have ceased to be, soap bubbles, shells in which one can barely hear a whisper, mere tree stumps. #death #dark #josesaramago

Another novel by #JoseSaramago on the "read" list!

This week I am returning to one of my all time favourite authors, #josesaramago. I haven't read this book of his before, but I am a huge fan so far, and of all his work. #discoveringwritinglife #greatbooks #writinginspiration
