"The moment was all; the moment was enough.”
― Virginia Woolf, The Waves

I don’t always compose. Sometimes I listen—for garden incantations passing through. I capture them in words:

"We are a chord of scattered feathers, our fractures shimmering in the sun; every shifting wind retunes us, composing our unsteady flight into song."

Im Feedreader bewahre ich ja Links auf für die Ewigkeit. Neulich gesehen, dass ich in der Schublade "Später hören" auch schon meterlang scrollen kann. Dort dann das #Hörspiel oder die Romanvertonung "Jacobs Zimmer" von #Virginia #Woolf entdeckt, ziemlich zum Schluss. Habe ich mit Vergnügen gehört und empfehle es daher!

I remember reading a Room on One's Own from Virginia Woolf in 2017 for the first time (and in English!!) and feeling absolutely bewildered. I was frantically taking notes and everything - I had never done that about a book, even for classes. It was the summer of my first year of uni, right after came a vindication for the rights of women. #feminism #feminist #virginiawoolf #english #englishliterature #essays #woolf #marywollstonecraft #books #bookstodon
