Slimmer met de dag

De mensen worden nu genoemd naar hun activiteit zoals we al eerder aangaven. De Wever. De Volder. Bijnamen die preciseren wat de mensen doen in het leven. Het valt op dat de bijnamen die verwijzen naar de textielnijverheid minder talrijk zijn in de steden dan op het platteland. De lakennijverheid in de streek van Arras moet dus aanvankelijk een landelijke bedoening zijn geweest. De lakens die…

Riksja, Oil on Canvas, 60x100cm. The Artist transports us into a dreamlike world where cities and villages become accessible through the use of 'Riksha.' These surreal entities, depicted as almost frictionless, one-wheeled or ball-based vehicles, move faster than the wind. The rich, intricate details and imaginative elements of the painting create a sense of mystery and wonder, inviting viewers to delve into the fantastical narrative where human ingenuity and mythological enchantment converge. The use of whimsical design and decoration elevates the mythological theme, making the painting an enchanting piece that stimulates both thought and imagination.

30.08.2023 ~ Vacation Reading

I'm finally on vacation! So of course it had to rain for three days straight! I got snuggled up in our house and managed to read all of this book in one day, a great feeling that I wish I could get more of during the year!

Book: DUTCH Lampje (original) IT Lucilla ENG Lampie and the Children of the Sea by Annette Schaap

My September, October & November Reads

The City and the House, Natalia Ginzburg - An all-time favorite. An unexpected beach read. An epistolary novel! Twitter is still good sometimes, mainly for basketball tweets and unusual book recommendations; I checked this out of the library after a college professor tweeted that he taught The City and the House and his students became obsessed with one of the female characters, couldn't stop talking about her. On an 80-degree September day, I left work early and read this on the beach—it's a total pageturner and I can't recommend it enough.

The God of the Woods, Liz Moore - A summer camp murder mystery. Well written and engrossing, and I loved the way it ended. A fun coincidence that added to my experience: at the time of reading, I was traveling back and forth to Albany and the Finger Lakes region of NY, which is where parts of the novel are set.

The Slow Road North: How I Found Peace in an Improbable Country, Rosie Schaap - I keep track of Rosie Schaap's writing because she's talented and interesting, of course, but also because we lived in the same Brooklyn neighborhood for many years and she tended bar down the street from my apartment. Anyway! Rosie is great and I think this memoir is ideal for anyone who's contemplating a life change and could use some inspiration. The synopsis is that after Rosie's husband and mother both passed away, NYC no longer felt like home and she wanted a fresh start. During a research trip for a writing assignment, she fell in love with a small seaside town in Ireland, and she figured out a way to relocate. I love the storytelling in this book, the way Rosie writes about the history of her new home and her neighbors, the way she confronts grief and regret and uncertainty, and the way she builds herself a beautiful life there completely from scratch. Like I said, it's inspiring! Plus I'm now itching to plan a visit to Ireland.

Loved and Missed, Susie Boyt - Another favorite book discovered via Twitter recommendation, in this case because Rumaan Alam tweeted about it enough times that I had to know why he felt so strongly. Well well well: it's one of the best books I've read in years, so sad but SO funny. It made me cry on the train, it made me laugh out loud, it sent me down a Susie Boyt google rabbit hole (I was like, "Ooo who is this newbie, I've never heard of her".......only to discover she is Freud's great-granddaughter), it had me at Community Bookstore on a recent Friday night to hear Rumaan and Susie in conversation (amazing). READ IT.

having very little self-awareness was obviously bad but at least as a teen i would try to figure out how to play a song even if i didn't get it 100% right the first time (or the first twenty times), now instead i'm like I CAN'T MAKE THE ATTEMPT WHAT IF I CAN'T DO IT RIGHT. i cannot stress enough that i don't even play music with other people.
