Note: This entry was censored in the first edition of the diaries, Max Brod changed it to “Two handsome Swedish boys with long legs.”

"Perhaps Brod’s elision of passages that could be read as homoerotic has ultimately drawn more attention to them than they otherwise would have received—still, this very elision suggests that these passages threatened the image of Kafka that Brod was striving to construct." — from translator's preface

For solstice I woke up early to be at the museum by opening, for the sole purpose of looking at Edvard Munch's "the sun" with a friend. The painting is almost 4.5 x 7.75 meters, and we sat in front of it for a long time, in contemplation and conversation. We saw nothing else, we were only there for the sun. It was a beautiful, serene, and meaningful ritual.

Then we came out to the midday sun, and caught her down by the harbour, where the frost mist hung low above the fjord. But the sky was clear and blue, with the sun resting close to the horizon. Almost like in the painting, but today the sun was warm and dark in colour, painting the buildings golden round us. I think maybe everything will be all right after all.

A friend told me that her grandfather would always light a candle on winter solstice "to aid the sun". And I love that. I have now placed a lit candle in my window still to help guide the sun back!
