"This is one of a few books by Latina authors given to me by a fellow writer/lover for Christmas a couple years ago.

So far, it's interesting in that the book takes a deep and immediate dive into the boundaries--or lack thereof--between food, the body, sex, and the mind and the Latin American understanding of them, which is somewhat alien to me."

"During the time I'm taking away from the monastery for reflection/discernment, I'm reading the Psalms and other poetical books of the Bible. The first six Psalms seem to have a theme of "fear the Lord," which is slightly dispiriting." Jul 18, 2016 06:24PM

"In what feels like another life, I was a philosophy student at Berkeley. I've been meaning to read these books for several years due to both the basic mission of the work and the fact that one of my former professors edited it.

And I am disappointed in myself that I put it off so long. The preface by Parfit is fucking hilarious. It makes me wish his fellowship at Oxford required him to teach."

Carson McCullers
“She wished there was some place where she could go to hum it out loud. Some kind of music was too private to sing in a house cram fall of people. It was funny, too, how lonesome a person could be in a crowded house.”
Carson McCullers, The Heart Is a Lonely Hunter

Alice Munro
“There is a limit to the amount of misery and disarray you will put up with, for love, just as there is a limit to the amount of mess you can stand around a house. You can't know the limit beforehand, but you will know when you've reached it. I believe this.”
Alice Munro

Robert Penn Warren
“All items listed above belong in the world
In which all things are continuous,
And are parts of the original dream which
I am now trying to discover the logic of. This
Is the process whereby pain of the past in its pastness
May be converted into the future tense
Of joy.

I Am Dreaming of a White Christmas: The Natural History of a Vision (1974)”
Robert Penn Warren

George Eliot
“What loneliness is more lonely than distrust?”
George Eliot, Middlemarch

Nathaniel Hawthorne
“It is a curious subject of observation and inquiry, whether hatred and love be not the same thing at bottom. Each, in its utmost development, supposes a high degree of intimacy and heart-knowledge; each renders one individual dependent for the food of his affections and spiritual life upon another; each leaves the passionate lover, or the no less passionate hater, forlorn and desolate by the withdrawal of his object.”
Nathaniel Hawthorne, The Scarlet Letter
