Invisible cities italo5/31/2023 ![]() ![]() ![]() And I quickly figured out that other people like this book too. I took Invisible Cities out of the library. I couldn’t report you many specific details from the book now-there’s not much story to speak of-but I remember the feeling of sitting in the grass and reading it, feeling the coldness of it, the sense of being sucked into another dimension, a series of images both dreamlike and exact, a pleasure simultaneously visceral and intellectual. I couldn’t see more than two feet in front of my face. My relationship had just exploded, and I was very depressed I only knew one person in town, and she was in rapturous love with her new boyfriend. I was working a tedious job at my college over one summer, living in a strange dorm room with no internet. Sometimes I like to think that Italo Calvino’s Invisible Cities saved my life, but it might be more accurate to say it saved my mind. ![]()

Consolation by corinne michaels5/31/2023 ![]() I’m breaking the ultimate man-code, but I can’t stop myself. The feel of her body against mine makes me want more.

Be there for her for support and any help she might need. ![]() He feels like he should make sure Natalie is okay. Everyone notices how she’s not coping well. She feels a void and doesn’t think anyone can ever fill it. Even though she has family and friends, it’s not the same. It’s just her and her daughter and she’s left to pick up the pieces and carry on with her life. Her husband Aaron, who is doing some sort of security mission overseas is gone. Then something huge happened to change all that. ![]() After trying for a while, she's pregnant with their first child. A husband she loved that made it out of the Navy safe and a live.
