You must know a great deal more about him than me— thank you for sharing this. I did not know you had a connection to Lebanon.

Camus walked in his different worlds with compassion & wisdom— I’ve also read praise & criticism about him

from both sides.

Here is a page from Claire Messud’s book— the literary critic whose article about Camus that I shared. And a picture of my grandfather (I tuck photos in my books)— my grandfather worked in the Steel Mills & I love this photo— he was probably getting ready to go hunting. I still write letters to my older cousin— my grandfather used to take him out & hunt. My grandfather was also wise. My cousin lives out in the wilds of Arizona.

by his colleagues, as well. dunno (and I really dunno). I just feel there’s more than choice out there, and it’s pretty much #theAbsurdOfExistence when/where you’re simply choiceless. that’s it.

I must read more critics, actually. keep on sharing, my kindle is hungry.

good-looking grapa, yours. tucking pics in books is definetely something I’ll start doing. that image caught me. must be some hella feelings, good stuff to work on.

and lebanon… welp. my grandpas are from there. my father and uncles as well — are least, on their birth certificates. I was born in brazil but I also have lebanese citizenship. and my daughter’s mother is also lebanese descendant, her grandma was. first time I fell in love, btw, was with a… belly dancer? I was 7, she was doing a show in this lebanese social club. noice memory, heh
