Ce sera une histoire qui vient du coeur, peut-être bien un coeur imaginaire, vu que ces derniers temps je ne sais pas toujours où trouver le mien quand j’en ai besoin.

top five authors and books!
top 5 authors in no particular order
jane austen: read all her books and loved almost all of them she earned this spot by writing persuasion
banana yoshimoto: I only read kitchen and moonlight shadow by her but I love love her writing style (especially how she writes grief)
ocean vuong: his poetry collection really made an impact on me and I'm currently reading on earth we're briefly gorgeous so im in my ocean vuong era lol
dostoevsky: he was so gay for writing the eternal husband that's all I have 2 say (also the way I read his work will always be more correct than whatever straight white men project on him)
kafka: only read the trial by him but he's my bestie im in a deep parasocial relationship with him even tho he's very much dead
top 5 books in no particular order as well bc idk how to rank them
persuasion by jane austen I need that book to become her most popular novel we need more acknowledgement for women who don't speak and don't do shit!!
outsiders by howard becker even tho that's a sociology book but anyway it's the book I enjoyed reading the most during undergrad
frankenstein by mary shelley I think abt this one weekly
the sum of our follies by shih-li kow it's like a tapestry of different people's lives I really enjoyed it
the unbearable lightness of being by milan kundera I read that one a long time ago and randomly remembered how much I liked it!!

Pour moi, l’Histoire se situe dans les livres, et les histoires dans la vraie vie. C’est pour ça que ça ne me dérange pas de rater l’école de temps en temps. En classe, on étudie ce qu’il y a dans les livres, des histoires dites et redites, aussi remâchées qu’un vieux chewing-gum. Les bonnes histoires vraiment savoureuses, c’est celles qui se sont échappées des livres.

Je voudrais dire à ceux qui passent, à qui voudra bien m’écouter, que les leçons viennent de la vie et non des histoires. Malheureusement, ce sera en vain, mes paroles balayées par le souffle de ceux qui tiennent à faire entendre leurs propres mots.
