April is the cruelest month, breeding lilacs out of the dead land, mixing memory and desire, stirring dull roots with spring rain.

“April is the cruelest month, breeding lilacs out of the dead land, mixing memory and desire, stirring dull roots with spring rain.”

― T.S. Eliot, The Waste Land

so I finally picked up The Secret History... When it came to April I wrote in the margins 'April is the cruellest month' and later realised they murdered Bunny in April. I really hope Donna Tartt wrote the book with 'The Waste Land' in mind and it's not just my brain reading too much into it.

Also, 'Winter kept us warm, covering / Earth in forgetful snow'. 'Forgetful snow' can be prescribed to the farmer's death which was soon forgotten. And 'Winter kept us warm' - Henry's last name is literally Winter and he did keep Richard warm after he returned from Rome, and it was during winter he became a lot closer with the gang and the friendship deepened after he knew the circumstances regarding the farmer's death.

My 4am thoughts are really all over the place.
