Marina Yuszczuk || Thirst (La Sed / Dorst)

A few months ago I received a mail from a Dutch publisher asking if I was interested in reading one of the novels Atlas Contact was about to publish. A novel by an Argentinian author, about a vampire. If I had encountered this novel in a bookshop I would probably not have given it any attention. Being asked to read it I said to myself ‘why not? Broaden your horizon!’. So I read Thirst by Marina…

Os problemas selvagens

Eles são mais comuns do que muita gente imagina, e é muito provável que você esteja lidando com pelo menos um deles agora mesmo. Um “problema selvagem” (que não é exatamente a melhor tradução do original wicked problem) é aquele que não se apresenta por completo quando você precisa já dar uma resposta, uma primeira proposta de solução. A cada tentativa de solução, o problema se desenha um pouco…

Kouwenaar Dicht: ik heb nooit

Ik heb nooit Ik heb nooit naar iets anders getracht dan dit: / het zacht maken van stenen / het vuur maken uit water / het regen maken uit dorst ondertussen beet de kou mij / was de zon een dag vol wespen / was het brood zout of zoet / en de nacht zwart naar behoren / of wit van onwetendheid soms verwarde ik mij met mijn schaduw / zoals men het woord met het woord kan verwarren / het karkas met…

🧛‍♂️VAMPIRE for the Dracula ask game!!

(btw I just finished episode 1 and oh my god???? Really kicked us in the teeth there, can't wait for more!!!🖤🖤)

🧛Dracula Daily Ask Game���

Question: 🧛‍♀️VAMPIRE Which book do you think Dracula fans should read next?

Answer:

Gabriel Urbina: Oooh, two come to mind!

S. by Doug Dorst and J.J. Abrams is the first one. A literary mystery that unfolds in the marginalia and annotations of a shifting, mysterious novel. If Dracula is reading an account after the papers have been put in sequence, this is getting to be a part of the story that emerges as the papers are put in sequence. An experience like no other, and it really does make you feel like you become Mina Harker for a little while as you read it.

And then Jamie McKelvie's brilliant, gothic One For Sorrow just released its first issue and I want everyone to read this book. Dark, thrilling, with tremendous characters, set in the same era as Dracula and exploring a lot of the same preoccupations of modernity clashing against the occult and supernatural. Plus, oh my god, it's so beautiful, just look at this thing:

Day 3 of reading S by J.J. Abrams/Doug Dorst:

SPOILERS AHEAD

I've finished the actual text of the novel by V.M. Straka, which was a slog not gonna lie. It's got so much mystery to it that I find it frustrating, and it annoys me that the main character doesn't complete either of his two missions (figuring out who he was and killing Vévoda).

Wish me luck for the first wave of marginalia!

I need to reread S. I think that would fix me
