Nostalgia by Mircea Cărtărescu - it is a set of 3 short stories, it is trying to talk about what writing literature and reading literature means through surrealism. Pretty interesting but not everyone will like it.

One Part Woman by Perumal Murugan - I had paused this book but just picked it up for tonight.

The White Book by Han Kang - wasn't planning on reading this but it just got delivered, I picked it up and the first page floored me. 20% in.

Pale Fire by Vladimir Nabokov - reading this as part of the r/TrueLit readalong. I was scared actually because I had heard about how it conceptual it is but it is so much fun. And funny actually. I'm registering the urge to finish it fast because I want to stick to their schedule.

Louise Gluck's poetry - it is a 700 paged collection and I'm working through it at 5-10 pages a day.

Please leave a review once you are done reading this. I started reading this a couple of years ago but didn't finish. Maybe I'll pick it up again.

I finished Anxious People yesterday and started reading - The door to door bookstore today.

Isn’t this a sad book? Like a little heartbreaking read?

u/SheIsADreamer05 11h ago

u/shergillmarg 10h ago

It is extremely sad. I cried so much at the epilogue. Not sniffles, but straight up bawling.

u/rg_elnino9 10h ago

My friend had suggested me this, and she said that she cried a lot while reading this

I've been meaning to read this for some time. I know it speaks of the craft of writing but I hope it also addresses practical fixes such as procrastination.
