"La primera mentira que Julio le dijo a Emilia fue que había leído a Marcel Proust. No solía mentir sobre sus lecturas, pero aquella segunda noche, cuando ambos sabían que comenzaban algo, y que ese algo, durara lo que durara, iba a ser importante, aquella noche Julio impostó la voz y fingió intimidad, y dijo que sí, que había leído a Proust, a los diecisiete años, un verano, en Quintero. Por entonces ya nadie veraneaba en Quintero, ni siquiera los padres de Julio, que se habían conocido en la playa de El Durazno, iban a Quintero, un balneario bello pero ahora invadido por el lumpen, donde Julio, a los diecisiete, se consiguió la casa de sus abuelos para encerrarse a leer "En busca del tiempo perdido". Era mentira, desde luego: había ido a Quintero aquel verano, y había leído mucho, pero a Jack Kerouac, a Heinrich Böll, a Vladimir Nabokov, a Truman Capote y a Enrique Lihn, que no a Marcel Proust."⠀ ⠀ "The first lie that Julio told Emilia was that he had read Marcel Proust. He did not usually lie about his readings, but that second night, when they both knew they were starting something, and that that something, no matter how long it lasted, was going to be Importantly, that night Julio imitated his voice and feigned intimacy, and said that yes, he had read Proust, at seventeen years old, one summer, in Quintero. At that time no one was spending the summer in Quintero, not even Julio's parents, who They had met on the beach of El Durazno, they were going to Quintero, a beautiful spa but now invaded by the lumpen, where Julio, at seventeen, got his grandparents' house to shut himself up to read "In Search of Lost Time." It was a lie, of course: I had gone to Quintero that summer, and had read a lot, but to Jack Kerouac, Heinrich Böll, Vladimir Nabokov, Truman Capote and Enrique Lihn, not Marcel Proust."⠀ ⠀ Alejandro Zambra⠀ Bonsái⠀ & Aimei Ozaki (artist) https://www.instagram.com/p/CRVrBqnL-GQ/?utm_medium=tumblr

“Japanese artist Aimei Ozaki has created 'Baudelaire' illustration series. These surreal cactus and succulents seem to have humanistic features of there own, each one with their own personality.”

"Comprendió que la memoria es frágil, evanescente, y que cuando alguien evoca su pasado deforma la realidad para justificarse o encontrar alivio / He understood that memory is fragile, evanescent, and that when someone evokes his past, he distorts reality to justify himself or find relief."⠀ ⠀ Irene Vallejo⠀ El infinito en un junco / Infinity in a reed⠀ ⠀ & Aimei Ozaki (artist)⠀ ⠀ ⠀ #surrealportrait #surreal #surrealart #surrealism #popsurrealism #popsurreal #popsurrealist #portraitpainting #contemporaryart #contemporaryartist #contemporarypainting #contemporarypainter #contemporarypaintings #contemporary_art #contemporarypainters #contemporaryfigurativeart #contemporaryoilpainting #modernart #modernpainting #artgallery #contemporaryartgallery #figurativeart #figurativepainting #surreal_art #surrealisme #surrealismo #jesuislesurrealisme #vagabondwho #marcopolorules #aimeiozaki https://www.instagram.com/p/CSSRhJADYuh/?utm_medium=tumblr
