7pm, ice-cream in hand, citronella burning to keep les petites bestioles away, reinforced (maybe?) by the lemon balm that’s flourishing in my tiny garden … I remembered I had this book by Claire Wilcox on my shelf and honestly, it’s perfect for this gorgeous, still, sunny, warm evening ☀️🍦🐝 🌻

“The uninhabitable: the skimped, the airless, the small, the mean, the shrunken, the very precisely calculated
The uninhabitable: the confined, the out-of-bounds, the encaged, the bolted, walls jagged with broken glass, judas windows, reinforced doors.”

(when light is memory)
“The light of memory, or rather the light that memory lends to things, is the palest light of all. I am not quite sure whether I am dreaming or remembering, whether I have lived my life or dreamed it.”
