6. and 18. for the asks :)
6. what books have you read in the last month?
i have actually been in the most horrid reading slump since the semester ended but i am slowly beginning to read things for thesis, so have begun mark fisher's the weird and the eerie (chapter on mullholland drive and inland empire), and i have two books that are glaring at me from my to-read list: the obscene bird of night by josé donoso, which i've been meaning to read for a year now, and endling by maria reva, a bizarre-sounding book which has intrigued me in a bookshop. one of these days i will remember how to parse letters
18. do you like historical books? which time period?
yes, i do actually! i'm actually not very picky with time periods at all as long as the book speaks to me. i love an odd/unusual take on history, e.g. i found confessions of the fox by jordy rosenberg really refreshing and fun (17th century) and i really enjoyed keiichiro hirano's bizarre take on a medieval horror story, eclipse, as well. i think as long as its a little new in some compelling way, it's very likely i will Like a historical novel :))

8 and 9!!
8. what is the first book you remember reading yourself?
oh my, what an interesting question. i'm actually ... not sure. i read a lot as a kid but the chronology of what was first kind of eludes me. it would have been something silly and whimsical like, idk, the moomin books. i know the books i was Fixated on very strongly as a kid were peter pan and then bridge to terabithia which explains a devastating amount of things about me - but that was later, when i was like 7-8ish. mysterious business, memories
9. when do you tend to read most?
usually in transit, especially on trains. these days, whenever a) i have to (deadlines, my beautiful tormentor) or b) i have the time (not enough!). ideally, before bed, as i have done as a child, but the nefarious screen ever lurks...
number 2 for the books ask!
perfect question because it changes all the time! i think every year my response is slightly different. but as of now, in no particular order:
another country, james baldwin
solaris, stanisław lem
nightwood, djuna barnes
ficciones (and all other short fiction by), jorge luis borges
autobiography of red, anne carson
but at the same time, i am lying. because so many others as well, these are just the ones i have spent a lot of time thinking about recently.

james baldwin was so right when he said “the children are always ours, every single one of them, all over the globe; and I am beginning to suspect that whoever is incapable of recognizing this may be incapable of morality.”
I think my ideal job would be video game guard npc. just walking around some hallways and going "Huh?? ......must have been rats." when I hear something. Standing around with a coworker repeating the same dialogue back and forth.
"all you ever do is complain" that's not true. I also resent.

ive always been stumped by the “do you dream in this or that language” bc my dreams are primarily visual and on top of that i think it’s both…. but i finally had a dream today that i am certain 100% was both polish & english bc i was moving to an apartment and it turned out someone else was “sharing” the room assigned to me and i was (in polish) saying I Cannot do This… i am not a starving undergrad i Have a Job (im sure it was in polish bc i used the word zawód meaning like. profession. craft. which … doubtful but w/e). but then i also remember saying “are you shitting me” out loud in english
