"hers was an economics of love" OOGH when the king lear hits. anyway i got bogged down in part 3 because i shouldn't have tried to read two books with very dense beautiful prose at once and i've been prioritizing war and peace, BUT i'm finishing war and peace this weekend so then i can actually get back to this dkfhsfs

...they did it

mike wazowski boy he bout to do it dot jpeg

CRYING CAT IMAGE,

am i very much enjoying this. yes. do i have vague unformed thoughts about how the tox’s effect on men vs women feels kind of uncomfortably bioessentialist. also yes

v4p3 down and guys i’m so close. i’m so close i can FEEL it i can TASTE it i have ~140 pages left so like half a normal book!!!

DOLOKHOV MY WORSTIE DOLOKHOV!!!!!

well. v4 p2 sure was. a part. can’t believe pierre cured all his mental illnesses by becoming a prisoner of war

“I’m doing this for Byatt, and Reese is doing this for me.” AIEEEEEE

“I guess you know a different Byatt than I do. Because I’m not sure she ever missed anything in her life.” oh i could froth

another day, another 20-page interval of tolstoy ignoring his own ocs to write napoleonic war rpf

thinking about... the way the three mains’ mutations reflect on them as people... hoogh

well. v4 p1. well. andrei my best friend andrei also maybe every story ever is about love also :(

lev and i just fundamentally disagree on so many things about the world in general but at least we can shake hands on nikolai gay because jesus this is comphet all the way down... LITERALLY saying marya makes him feel sick and afraid and he can’t picture their married life except as “incoherent and false” ok

well. there it is, boys, let’s pour a final one out for one of the most mistreated literary woman of all time

beyoncé image IPPOLIT????? MY FUCKING BELOVED

hetty. hetty she just said she didn’t want to be friends. hetty. girl

“Reese doesn’t do shy. Even when she came out to me, it was like a weapon.” reese 😳

virgil cancelled for bury your gays

finished volume 3 and for future reference this is where i caved and bought a copy bc the library wants their book back 😔

why doesn’t pierre understand this french guy is trying to fuck him. where’s the version of v3 p3 in which they have sex in the dead freemason’s apartment where pierre has been losing his domesticity and sinking into an obsessive haze. when do they make out on top of his plans to kill napoleon

tolstoy 🤝 virgil
🐝

the anticapitalism briefly leaving my body so i can sympathize with these rich people while i read this

“She’s never liked us much, not since she complained that there were no boys on the island, and Reese gave her the blankest look I’ve ever seen and said, “Plenty of girls, though.”” SCREAM...

literally name a literary woman more mistreated by her author than helene kuragina bezukhova

HELENE POV. AT LONG LAST. LIKE WATER IN THE DESERT OF TOLSTOY’S POLITICAL TREATISES

WHY IS HE MAKING CALCULUS REFERENCES WHY IS HE MAKJNG EXPLICIT CALC METAPHORS IM GOJNG TO DIG HIM UP AND KILL HIM AGSJN

glad we can all agree regan does coke

v3 p2 aka 90% elaborate replays of russian battles i did not and do not care about & 10% my having mental illness about andrei bolkonsky

andrei reminds me that i'm mentally unwell
