    James Joyce is one of my faves but only for his short fiction (the short stories and the novella you have). Ulysses was a long and arduous journey, but I guess now I can say I've read it! Happy reading!

    3:04 this mug is so romantic....
    I mean in a Early Romantic era way.
    The beauty in the pain of love. That mug meant the world to somebody it was a token of devotion a way to express a love so strong that it was countless.
    And now what is left? What is left of that love that it was strong as all the multiverse put together...
    A cheap lonely mug waiting to be love to somebody again. But whom is going to love something so personal that now is impersonal?

    It's true: The English Patient did have an Oscar-winning movie from 1996. But (as always), the movie omits a lot; the book is better.

    • @jennifermanian1420

    That is a cool collection of books from the thrift store. There are a lot of neat books there. I did see the movie of 'The English Patient'. It hit me hard. I think everyone should see that movie. But - I have never read the Novel. Maybe I should change that.

      The part where you talk about The Bone Season; I really felt the same way about Priory of the Orange Tree, which I hated because it tried to come across as such a great story with great writing but all Samantha Shannon does is throw information and fancy character names at you and no, just no.

    7 dollars for 7 books?! So cheap! There's no thrift book store around here. So I buy them online and the price is sometimes half price and sometimes only 20% or 30% off. But still most of them have fixed price and no discount 🤧

  • @EllenChernevich
    @EllenChernevich Před 3 lety +2

    What a great purchase! ☺️ I wish I had such thriftstores where I live.
    Portrait of the artist as a young man is a perfect way to start. Stephen Dedalus is also one of the main characters of Ulysses. So knowing his background helps to tackle and enjoy this gorgeous brick of modernist literature

  • @FaeryLaume
    @FaeryLaume Před 3 lety

    I had to run an errand into the city twice in the last two weeks and piggybacked those tasks with trips to a large thrift store as well. Came home with a small bag full of new clothes and a BOX of new books. And a tea cup. Getting out and about, and the new treasures, were such a mood lifter! Also, I laughed when you talked about needing to get away from the sadness in your books and then you went for a walk in the cemetery - LOL, I would have done the same thing.

    An Irish novel I’d definitely recommend is History of the Rain by Niall Williams 🌧🐟📚 - pretty much a love letter to storytelling and community... lots of literary references (esp. Dickens!) and plenty of humour but absolutely devastating too... 😭😭😭 I was bawling by the end but absolutely loved it

    I love thrifting books so much! Only problem is that there is only one shelf for english books in my favourite thrift store, and most of them are religious, so finding anything good in English can be a real struggle. The selection in norwegian is huge though, i purchased so many books just the last two weeks alone, 13 i believe. And pocket books are so cheap at 10 NOK, it's so beautiful 😌😌

    Even though I love The Bone Season series, I understand the problems some people have with it, it is pretty info-dumpy and Samantha Shannon herself has said that if she could go back and rewrite it, she would change a lot, including the info-dump. That said, the series gets better with every book (though the 3rd one is my least favourite) and you can really tell how much Samantha Shannon has grown as writer in the last book. I really think it's worth it to push through the first book but then again I am biased because I love it so much hahah I hope you enjoy it more this second time
    Love from Portugal 🧡
