"The Playing Man with a Book is free."

— Wisława Szymborska

Free to, as she said, 'take a momentary dive into the Mesozoic.'

Reading is not a task. It's the most beautiful game humanity ever invented.

Just finished this novel by Olga Tokarczuk, I've had this @twistedspoon edition for a while but have never got round to reading it.

I will definitely look out for her other novels as I really enjoyed this.

"Any good poem becomes abstract in some way. But it always has to do with reality, with the poet's life or the lives of others."

— Wisława Szymborska,

She taught us that the universal is not found in the clouds, but in the details.

Spoke a little about Polish literature, today, and was reminded of The Cyberiad.
