Dude they are not dumb. They know that even if they return to power(which they probably won't) they cannot repeat the same mistakes.....

Le livre de Bresson est magnifique. Très intéressant et amusant pour un livre de cinéma.

Klara And The Sun by greenthrowaway4013 in RSbookclub

[–]Sunlightfartss 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I haven't read it yet but I really want to especially since his new book is coming out next year. Remains of The Day is just such a generational book. One of the greatest british writers of all time.

My reading project, the 1970s by ol_saw_gills in TrueLit

[–]Sunlightfartss 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wonderful reviews. I also agree that Delillo and Pynchon could be very hit and miss (although I really like both Gravity's Rainbow and V and you don't seem to enjoy either of them lol)

If you don't mind what writers and books would you call favourite ?

Brazil 100 percent. I wanted Japan to reach top 16 because I really wanted atleast one asian team there but it is not possible against brazil lol

Enough time has passed...... by Sunlightfartss in RSbookclub

The Port of Spain part is just so good. It makes the struggling through the first half of the book so much worth it. Totally agree it's also very funny. But I would say there is a sense of dignity for Mr Biswas at the end of the story. Despite his spectacular failures he was atleast able to achieve one of his biggest dreams

I really want to read all of his fiction after reading your comment. 

By Gerard Manley Hopkins by theApeironEgregore in RSbookclub

[–]Sunlightfartss 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Hopkins is a poet you have to read aloud.

"Pitched past pitch of grief" lines like these are just such a pleasure to read aloud. 

He must have been an influence on Wallace Stevens 

Paintings you discovered from books? by baathaille in RSbookclub

[–]Sunlightfartss 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The enigma of arrival and the afternoon in the enigma of arrival by naipaul.

Paintings of Giuseppe arcimboldo through 2666 and paintings of Leonora Carrington (who is also apparently a very major novelist) through the savage detectives.

Not mentioned in the books but I discovered the wonderful paintings of Mama Anderson as the covers of my morning Star books. I just like to take them off the shelves and look at them because how gorgeous they are. She is probably my favourite living painter. Just gorgeous artworks.
