‘The heart will break and yet brokenly live on.’ Byron. #Frankenstein is breathtaking & brilliant & del Toro is a gift to us all. If you can, you need to see this in the cinema. A film for now as we have to all think hard about labelling monsters and being human #filmsky

Last time I read #Augustine’s #Confessions was after my son arrived very early, on maternity leave feeling lost & it was a strange comfort during the long nights. Rereading again with big kids (still in the bed), more settled & grateful to be studying #GreatTexts with my students #theosky #philsky
