La voce dei libri

Books have a voice too. I'm Paddy. I'm in my sweet mid-20ies. And this is what books and others have whispered to me.

We are torn between nostalgia for the familiar and the urge for the foreign and strange. We are homesick most for the places we have never known.

A woman. Yes, but a million other things as well.

Virginia Woolf - Orlando

For most people – sometimes for women, too– great literature is generally felt to be literature made by men. Apart from a few fine souls, men don’t read books by women, as if such reading would weaken their virile power. But it’s a subject that concerns women’s creations in every field. Educated, broad-minded men treat female thought with polite irony, as a by-product, good only as a pastime for women.

Elena Ferrante, Frantumaglia (via heidisaman)

I decided to open commissions for 1 month only (december). So, if you like my style and want some art from me - you are welcome! Fandoms I appreciate: Amercian Horror Story (seasons 2,3), The Young Pope, Chilling adventures of Sabrina, Preacher,  My Brilliant Friend (L'amica geniale), Hannibal. 

This art is dedicated to the new beautiful, but not very popular TV series -  My Brilliant Friend (L'amica geniale). I hope, there will be more arts soon, this show is definitely deserves it.
