Yet it has occurred to me that there may be more wisdom in birds than appears at first sight, a wisdom that reveals itself only obliquely and intermittently.

The Barbie Movie (2023, dir. Greta Gerwig) and Piranesi (2020, wr. Susanna Clarke) are spiritual siblings. To me

#just because i had this revelation halfway through Barbie and half a bottle of rose deep doesn't mean it isn't true #it's the journey from innocence to disenchantment to embracing of what it means to be human. for me #it's the being lost and being found and known #i'm here for my gynecologist appointment AND the beauty of the house is immeasurable. its kindness infinite. okay? #this post is for an audience of no one #piranesi #barbie #the barbie movie

i love comparing severance to everything it just ties everything together. severance is like house of leaves. its like control. its like portal/aperture science. which means all of these are haunted places in and of themselves. they are ghost stories. but its also love stories. do you get it.

#do you get it. do you. its so so. oh my god. #angel.txt #EDIT IT ALSO TIES INTO PIRANESI. #'The Beauty of the House is immeasurable; its Kindness infinite' YEAH.

The beauty of the House is immeasurable, its Kindness infinite.

Had a frustrating day yesterday, but sitting down to cut and paste pictures from Smithsonian magazines into a collage inspired by Piranesi by Susanna Clarke made me feel better.

I read Piranesi in little over a day. Absolutely ate it up. The most nourishing of books.

Of all the things I love about this gorgeous, grounding story, my favorite is that the protagonist sees the House through the eyes of a mystic gazing upon their Beloved. It’s a story not of breaking from captivity to freedom, but of the loss of innocence and the life beyond. At the end, the protagonist holds both realities in his hands. There’s something beautiful about that.

I read somewhere that this book, with its concept, with any other character would 100% be a horror-thriller-cult story. But it’s this character, and all he sees is beauty. He takes a truly awful situation (that he doesn’t even realize is that bad half the time) and sees the beauty in it. When he leaves, after realizing the terrible card he was dealt, he still can look at the world and say, “The Beauty of the House is immeasurable; its Kindness infinite.”

The poetry of it all. The gratitude of it all. The complete and utter acceptance that “I am the Beloved Child of the House.” I learned more about God from a book about a house with 7,000 (and counting) rooms than I have in the past eight years. This book is tattooed on my heart, and I don’t think I’ll ever be the same.
