New Arrival - The Calculation Of Volume 1 - Solvej Balle

Saw someone post this a little while back and I was intrigued by the cover and the synopsis. This may have to bumped up my TBR list.

I’m loving it. But I’ve learnt that #NĆ”das is an acquired taste. #ParallelStories was one of my favourite reads last year, but I’m in the minority. Personally I think his work is misunderstood, and its extremely graphic nature is not for everyone. So far this one is an easier read than PS.

Made it to the end of #omensettersluck today. ā€˜Finished’ is definitely not the correct adjective, so much still to contemplate and consider. But needless to say, I loved it! šŸ–¤ #Williamhgass

I’ve almost given up on new books, lol… but two I can think of: ā€˜The Mysterious Disappearance of The Marquise of Loria’ (which is actually a new ed. rather than new book); and the English translation of ā€˜Schattenfroh’… which I think you’ve read in German?

Marie-Antoinette by Charles-Ɖloi Vial | Book review Though marred by heavy rainfall, the opening ceremony of the 2024 Paris Olympics was a wide-ranging, often provocative celebration of high and low French culture. There were several allusions to films...

Interesting article and review of new bio on #marieantoinette. Sadly my French isn’t quite up to Charles-Ɖloi Vial’s new book just yet. Any plans for an English translation?!
