  2. 📚 Ich lese Jahrmarkt der Eitelkeiten von William Makepeace Thackeray.
    Kein einfaches Buch, aber genau das will es auch nicht sein.In diesem Klassiker der englischen Literatur gibt es keine Helden, nur nackte Menschlichkeit: Masken, Stolz, Selbsttäuschung.Manchmal muss ich das Buch weglegen, nicht aus Langeweile.....
    Lesen ist nicht immer Flucht. Manchmal ist es ein Spiegel.

    Beautiful but boring film. I thought the book would be better, but it is awful.

  8. E' morto #RyanONeal ovvero colui che interpretò l'irlandese #RedmondBarry che per un tratto della sua incredibile vita è stato anche il nobile #BarryLyndon raccontato dal film di #StanleyKubrick tratto dal romanzo di #Thackeray , ovvero il film in assoluto più bello della storia del cinema* che qualsiasi essere umano dovrebbe vedere prima di morire 🎦

    #RIP ⚰️

  13. Man standing: "What's the book?"

    Man lying in bed (or woman sitting reading to him?): "'Vanity Fair.'"

    Man standing: "A rather long yarn for a young man these days."

    Still from a #movie whose name I don't remember. And I call myself a cinephile. I can't even pick who the actors are. Maybe this was the only memorable scene & dialogue, though I would like to watch it again to find out.

    Have to say, I've always been partial to long yarns, though I am yet to read #Thackeray.

  18. Probably gonna read #Stendhal soon, never read him despite my deep love for #Thackeray and #Tolstoy who seem to have followed in his footsteps. Maybe also #Dostoevsky? Someone must have written about the influence of #Napoleon on the 19th century novel

  23. Also I think #Tolstoy was reading #Thackeray when he was fighting in the Crimean War? And #Shklovsky was writing literary criticism on the other front from #Wittgenstein. Could be fun to write something on "What we read while fighting." Or even "What pacifists read at war." Not that they all necessarily became pacifists. Just thinking aloud...
