rotting in bed but in a richard wasting away during that first winter in vermont kind of way
the first-winter-in-vermont version of richard papen is a little too relatable sometimes
how do i let people know that fall is my favorite season, not in a pumpkin spice way but in a “the snow in the mountains was melting and bunny had been dead for several weeks” kind of way?
when the leaves start changing colors and it’s looking like drop everything and move to vermont to join an elite major at snobby school before ultimately joining a cult and killing your friends
Richard Papen is the kind of guy to say “i know a spot” and then take you to a run down apartment with a hole in the roof in the middle of winter
spot the difference (hard mode)
me: yeah i know a little bit of latin
the latin: cubitum eamus??
when i’m going about my day but then classical music starts playing and suddenly i am nothing in my soul if not obsessive
i’m just like henry winter
i too don’t believe the moon landing was real
Does such a thing as 'the fatal flow' that showy dark crack running down the middle of a life, exist outside literature? I used to think it didn't. Now I think it does. And I think that mine is this: a morbid longing for the picturesque at all cost.
The secret history, Donna Tartt
Henry Winter gives me rugby boy vibes:
1. He has the thighs.
2. He does hip thrusts in the gym.
That’s it. That’s the post. Thank you
this song is SO the secret history
my grandma reading TSH pt.2
Me: so what do you think about Francis?
Grandma: awww, he’s such a sad homosexual
my grandma is currently halfway through TSH and yesterday when I asked her how she likes it and she was like “well no wonder they killed Bunny”
also she has lots of other savage opinions i love her
am I the only one that thinks we don’t really know much about Charles?
I mean, he was always a side character, we don’t really get to know him, anything. I feel like we know almost nothing about him, and then, in the second part of the book he is a really really important character. the police and FBI interrogations, his slow mental breakdown. we get so much information about him at once, his relationship with Camilla, his problems, him being abusive. but despite all of that I still feel like he wasn’t detailed enough and it’s confusing.
anyone feels the same?
