I am so longing for something- how should I put it, something *significant* to read. Suddenly I have this absurd feeling that I am wasting my time, reading this and that, books that are nice and easy and shiny and new, but that leave almost nothing behind once I finished them. I start books and they fall out of my hands. The only ones that kindle my interest are biographies, journals, letters (Klaus Mann, Mihail Sebastian, Karoline von Günderrode...) But I also want a story, a fiction that will envelop me- well, I guess what I want is evasion. Significant evasion, hm...
