The Aesthetics Of My Insomnia:

i am so sorry i am only reading the secret history for the first time because i feel like i am missing a lot of details that can only be noticed by re-reading the book. i'm on chapter three and so far every chapter talks about immortality and "living forever." i am wondering if this will last longer and how it will be mentioned in the chapter with bunny's murder. if it will be mentioned at all?

and the whole third chapter can probably be considered the character's first test of the idea of ​​immortality. and already here he faces reality - the proximity of death for any person, the fragility of life (and btw, it is significant that he does not fully realize that he can die, since life among his Greek circle makes him not think about it, they constantly repeat to him 'live forever' no one discusses death).

Fellow "The gray house" enjoyer yay 👊😊

yeah! I even have fanarts for this book!

Corpse

And my fav one!!

" <...> Skull himself sat on a simple bench. Not in a hundred years would you suspect that he ruled this place, except everyone knew that he did.

When Grasshopper looked at him, Skull seemed to radiate an invisible halo. It was not apparent to the eye, but it separated him from the background, made him brighter. Like they do with light in old movies. And the fact that he was just sitting there, lost in the sea of mere mortals, only strengthened the effect."

my theory for what henry whispered to camilla is "kitten, i'll be honest. daddy's about to kill himself"

he is like a babygirl and punching bag to me

the three genders:

Judy Poovey — Fancast + Moodboard

Rachel Sennott as Judy Poovey

“I found her lying in her bed, watching a Mel Gibson movie on a VCR she’d borrowed from the video department. She was managing somehow to polish her fingernails, smoke a cigarette, and drink a Diet Coke all at the same time.”

So I just recently finished The Secret History by Donna Tartt and let me just say, Judy Poovey is my baby!!! Anyway, just was thinking about actors I would want to play her, and I just thought, ‘Oh my god, Rachel Sennott!’ you cannot tell me that she wouldn’t be a perfect Judy I mean come on!!!

you probably wouldn’t like me at all
