"Did not expect to like this, as usually I hate this kind of “vague” writing and I couldn’t get through Orlando…. But this is GORGEOUS
The perfect book to read in a summer garden, half dozing off, as the entire prose feels like a daydream unspooling before your eyes. Very excited to keep going" — Mar 24, 2024 05:12AM

“Every fall into love involves the triumph of hope over self-knowledge. We fall in love hoping we won't find in another what we know is in ourselves, all the cowardice, weakness, laziness, dishonesty, compromise, and stupidity. We throw a cordon of love around the chosen one and decide that everything within it will somehow be free of our faults. We locate inside another a perfection that eludes us within ourselves, and through our union with the beloved hope to maintain (against the evidence of all self-knowledge) a precarious faith in our species.”
