everything is more beautiful because we're doomed.
befitting today's occasion, on the subject of war. finished reading the song of achilles - a homēra iliāda tak ir balstīta čista geju mīlasstāstā, biju piemirsis. anyway, lieliska, viegla brīvdienu lasāmgabala versija, par visu to pašu: valsti, "slavas", "uzvaras" un "varonīguma" kultu, likteni, utt., un diviem, kuri ir tam visam pa vidu un visu iespējamo veidu un mērogu konfliktos. very greek, very complicated, very tragic - perfect. vislabāk man patīk lasīt stāstus, kuriem es jau zinu beigas - it's like watching an impending trainwreck, morbid and fascinating, and all the more beautiful for that. |
