A book must be the axe for the frozen sea within us. 

~ Franz Kafka

 

Today Jennifer Firestone's dark & luminous Gates & Fields is just that. A book of grieving that shows you joy. 

 

Yesterday it was Louise Penny's latest, A Better Man, who writes about kindness & community in the face of anger & evil. 

 

Every day, there's a book to make me think, feel, sweat, jump up in amazement or anger. Every day I am grateful that I will never run out of books.

Monday Quote

It is not necessary that you leave the house. Remain at your table and listen. Do not even listen, only wait. Do not even wait, be wholly still and alone. The world will present itself to you for its unmasking, it can do no other, in ecstasy it will writhe at your feet.

~ Franz Kafka, The Zurau Aphorisms

 

What more is there to add.
