The August Archive
August of another summer, and once again I am drinking the sun. (Mary Oliver)
some recommendations based on what i’ve been reading, watching and using in the month of august.






— to read
La Frantumaglia by Elena Ferrante. (2003)
a quote that stuck with me: Scrivere è anche la storia di ciò che abbiamo letto e leggiamo, della qualità delle nostre letture, e un buon racconto alla fine è quello scritto dal fondo della nostra vita, dal cuore dei nostri rapporti con gli altri, dalla cima dei libri che ci sono piaciuti.

Walk the Blue Fields by Claire Keegan. (2007)
a quote that stuck with me: He stands there and looks at the world. The spring has come, dry and promising. The alder is shooting out, her pale limbs brazen. Everything seems sharper now. The night has braced itself against the fence posts. The rake is a shining thing, well loved and worn. Where is God? he has asked, and tonight God is answering back. All around the air is sharp with the tang of wild currant bushes. A lamb climbs out of a deep sleep and walks across the blue field. Overhead, the stars have rolled into place. God is nature.
