“Then Stephen must tell her the cruel truth, she must say: ‘I am one of those whom God marked on the forehead. Like Cain, I am marked and blemished. If you come to me, Mary, the world will abhor you, will persecute you, will call you unclean. Our love may be faithful even unto death and beyond—yet the world will call it unclean. We may harm no living creature by our love; we may grow more perfect in understanding and in charity because of our loving; but all this will not save you from the scourge of a world that will turn away its eyes from your noblest actions, finding only corruption and vileness in you. You will see men and women defiling each other, laying the burden of their sins upon their children. You will see unfaithfulness, lies and deceit among those whom the world views with approbation. You will find that many have grown hard of heart, have grown greedy, selfish, cruel and lustful; and then you will turn to me and will say: “You and I are more worthy of respect than these people. Why does the world persecute us, Stephen?” And I shall answer:
“Because in this world there is only toleration for the so-called normal.” And when you come to me for protection, I shall say: “I cannot protect you, Mary, the world has deprived me of my right to protect; I am utterly helpless, I can only love you”."
The Well of Loneliness, Radclyffe Hall. The first lesbian book in English.

Scout is helping me model my new ring. 🐾🐚🐬I don’t wear much jewelry, but I do love rings that have a special meaning. When I’m touring the world, I like to find a ring from each country/city. The only rule is that it has to be made by a local artist. I have a lovely little collection of rings now— from Sweden, Australia, Brazil, Italy, the UK, to name a few—and they act as little talismans and time capsules, immediately transporting me back to where and when I found it. 💫🚀✨ This particular one reminds me of a special person and a special place, and it’s also symbolic of the new book I’m working on... 🤭🤫✍🏻 Thank you to @gogojewelry for creating this beauty. I love it with all my heart! ✨💙🦀 #gogojewelry #seaurchin #ring #seaurchinjewelry #allthebrightplaces #polydactylcat #talisman #scoutfinch #gogoferguson (at Los Angeles, California)

Harper Lee'nin unutulmaz romanı Bülbülü Öldürmek.1960 yılında yayınlandığında sanaasyon yaratan ırkçılığın nasil bir sey olduğunu bir çocuğun gözünden anlatan kitap. Haksiz yere suçlanan siyahi bir adam ve delillere rağmen toplum baskısını aşamayan bir mahkeme. Güneyin bağnazlığı, toplumsal önyargılar gibi konuları dönemi için ilerici bir ailenin gözünden anlatan kitap bir kaç kez okunmayı hakediyor. #harperlee #bulbuluoldurmek #tokillamockingbird #kitap #kitaptavsiyesi #book #buch #libro #livre #scoutfinch #atticus (Bursa) https://www.instagram.com/p/CFO-j98ldqE/?igshid=1nuy3vdlua2gp

My favorite book of all time. I read it every summer. I’ve often said that I don’t want an engagement ring, I want a first edition copy of To Kill a Mockingbird. When someone gifts me that, I will have found my person. ❤️ My first copy finally broke down last year. I got this copy at a used bookstore in LA last year. It was one of the few books I’ve read that I brought to Denver. (I left or gave away hundreds of books in Cleveland). 📚 No matter how many times I read it, I love Scout’s voice. She is so funny and self-aware. She’s adventurous and stubborn. She loves being outside and her brother. She’s precocious and kind. She defies social norms for young girls in her era and isn’t afraid to speak her mind. She is one of a kind. She’s my favorite character. She’s everything I am. And everything I want to be. And no matter how many times I read this novel, Scout always inspires me to be bold and brave. That’s why I keep reading it. . . . . . #scout #tokillamockingbird #whatimreading #whatimwearingnow #bookclub #readersofinsta #readersofinstgram #bookstagram #harperlee #atticusfinch #scoutfinch #tkam #bookshelf #usedbooks #oldbooks #vintagebooks #vintagebook (at Colorado) https://www.instagram.com/p/B0kDbKBAEkV/?igshid=1i06jrol30jwm

Narrated by the young Jean Louise 'Scout' Finch, Harper Lee's 'To Kill a Mockingbird' (1960) is much lighter in delivery than many works of Southern Gothic fiction. Despite this, the subject matter and many tropes of the genre are still apparent. The misunderstood neighbour, Boo Radley, serves as the figure of the ghost. Race issues are raised in Tom Robinson's storyline - the black man accused of rape, defended in court by Scout's lawyer father, Atticus Finch. And class issues arise in the concurrent arc of Bob Ewell, father of the plaintiff, and attacker of the most iconic ham, as pictured above in the classic 1962 film adaptation. 📸: Photograph for 'To Kill a Mockingbird' (dir.

definitions of heaven
a week ago: a quiet afternoon waiting for your call. today: curry puffs and ube buchi, shared before parting for different countries. a month or so ago: everyone you loved in reach with the catch of stressing over which family member to visit. a beat or so later, you disagreeing, our eyes turned to the ceiling, imagining: impossible limitlessness, colors unseen by the naked eye, loss, exhaustion, grief unknown. our constant agreement: worthy of the supposed cleansing in purgatory. on nights we wonder: a realm we forfeit, as people would like to believe. every day: yearning for you, your body like mine; us, suspended in time, intertwined in bliss.
