Ethel Wight Collection – Part 108

This week, I identified five of sus people in my photo sets: Nides, Doris Niles (later Strout), Nellie Norton, Margaret Nugent, Virginia Nutter (later Reedy, later Gierman), Strout, #genealogy, #PhotoID

Photo Friday – Nides, Niles, Norton, Nugent, & Nutter. By Don Taylor This week, for Photo Friday, I identify the people in five more envelopes from the Ethel Wight Studio Collection[i]. The envelopes typically contain the name of the person who paid for the photos, not necessarily of the individual portrayed in the image. As such, it is vital to analyze the pictures and information to identify…

You are wasting time by suffering twice. I mention this only to show how many things the mind cannot will itself to do, even if it wants to.

New book stickers have arrived!

I was thinking of which book opinions I needed represented in sticker form before drawing these, the books that first came to mind for each are as follows (all opinions entirely my own):

Either Adored or Loathed This, Not Sure: The Magicians by Lev Grossman- what a brilliant story filled with such unreadably unlikeable characters!

I Need to Read the Sequel Immediately: I have so far started all of the next Robin Hobb books the minute after finishing the previous one. I can't actually sustain that pace unfortunately because they're all 900 pages long.

Extremely Sad, But in a Good Way: All of my favourite books are this- most particularly the Elizabeth Strout's Olive Kitteridge books and Marilynne Robinson's Gilead books

Loved, Loved, Loved This Book: The last book I immediately decided was my favourite before I even finished it was The Fortnight in September by RC Sheriff, in which nothing happens except an English family goes on holiday in the 30's. Fucking brilliant.

So Good That I Bought a Fancy Special Edition: The only fancy special edition I own is His Dark Materials, it is indeed very good and important and wonderful.

Shouldn't Have Bought This, Never Going to Read it: 90% of the non-fiction books I buy that aren't about the Beatles sit unread and unloved. I have been meaning to read SPQR by Mary Beard for several years..

Didn't Understand a Word of This: I read 200 pages of Darkmans by Nicola Barker when I was at university and tried to reads the whole Booker longlist once. It made me feel like I'd forgotten how to read English

Relevant to All of My Very Specific Interests: I read Piranesi by Suzanna Clarke in one sitting, slack jawed in surprise at how exactly 'for me' it was. Unreliable narrator! No real explanation as to what is going on! A fantasy about characters rather than medieval England-ish settings and magic systems! So so fantastic.

This Has Not Aged Well: I pushed my way through to the end of American Pastoral by Phillip Roth, but my word.

How about you?

"We all love imperfectly." — Elizabeth Strout, My Name is Lucy Barton

Poi una mattina sono uscita a camminare e ho visto un bel dente di leone giallo sul ciglio del vialetto verso il fondo della discesa. E l'ho fissato; non riuscivo a staccare gli occhi da quel fiore. Mi sono chinata e ho appoggiato le dita sulla corolla soffice. Ho pensato: Oh mio Dio! Da lì ho cominciato a vederne altri, denti di leone, durante le mie passeggiate. Ne crescevano tanti al margine della strada sterrata sulla quale avevo vissuto da bambina, e un giorno, quando ero ancora molto piccola, ne avevo fatto un mazzolino da portare a mia madre, e lei si era infuriata perché i fiori avevano macchiato il corpetto del vestito nuovo che mi aveva fatto da poco. Eppure - dopo tutti quegli anni - vederli continuava ad allargarmi il cuore di meraviglia.

Creo conocer muy bien el dolor que de niños apretamos contra el pecho, que dura toda la vida, con una nostalgia tan profunda que ni siquiera eres capaz de llorar. Lo agarramos con fuerza, sí, con cada latido del corazón convulso: esto es mío, esto es mío, esto es mío.

Me llamo Lucy Barton, Elizabeth Strout.

And remorse, well, to be able to show remorse — to be able to be sorry about what we’ve done that’s hurt other people — that keeps us human.

e capí che non bisognava mai prenderla alla leggera, la profonda solitudine della gente, che le scelte fatte per arginare quella voragine di buio esigevano molto rispetto
