Special moments

"‘Sometimes,’ she said, ‘at special moments like that, people feel a pain alongside their happiness. I’m glad you watch everything so carefully, Klara.’"

Hola,

I finished Klara and the Sun, and I enjoyed every bit of it. It is a beautiful story full of strong emotions. If you look for an easy and light book that uncovers emotional situations with a simple narrative, I can only recommend it.

I think it isn't necessary to go through the quote this time, and I hope it makes you feel something deep in your heart when you read it, same as it happened to me. I find in Ishiguro's style a strong influence from Yukio Mishima's work, especially when it comes to paying attention and finding beauty from small details. I wonder how this admiration has developed my interest in humans' interactions with their surroundings, and my love for documentary films ❤️. After all, we tend to reproduce what makes us feel good.

I found out that Wild Tales was added to MUBI here in Germany, so hurry up and watch it if you can. If it isn't available in your country, I urge you to find it. I know you will enjoy it!

Find here a list of things I found worth sharing from last week:

1. Learn. I found this useful tweet about architectural styles with examples.
2. Reflect. Lately, I have been in several conversations where people bring this idea of intermittent fasting. I found this interesting article about the double standards behind this diet.
3. Aww♥️. Why wasn't I invited to this banquet?

Thanks for reading and have a nice week!
