Anyone else read, and fully just see the words as they are reading; but will remember it with images as if they were there/watched it take place?
Is there a term for that?
Because I can fully visual Zack, Sephiroth, and Cloud watching the fireflies
As a Black, female, colonized subject, what was the source of my authority, and was such authority necessary—indispensable perhaps?—to speech, public speech? To poetry? Being neither male nor white and without an observable or tangible source of authority, could I even speak? Or would I only speak a silence? What I hadn’t realized until “I will, if you read it with me” was that in shifting the lyric voice, in at least forcing it to share the page with other voices, with other histories—moving it from centre stage and page; in clearing a space—I had allowed for other voices to be heard. A multivocal, polyvocal discourse could now be heard. It was the chorus of the unheard, the not-heard, the barely whispered. This to me was closer to the discourse of women. To the call and response of African speech. I saw the text now as a jazz text. If you look at “Discourse,” for instance, the centre refrain can be seen as the main musical theme and the linguistic events that are happening in english around this centre theme can be seen as riffs speaking into the silence around the “anguish that is English.” Indeed, the entire work can also be seen to be working around the central theme that “Discourse” represents—the loss of language.

I am on the last chapter of The Witcher Baptism of Fire and also managed to be on the last chapter of a fic of nearly the exact same length. But I am a Staller, I'll see that I'm near the end and purposely read slower. I'll take 30 minutes on the last page, drag out the last sentence. Since I have two of them, I'll go "oh no it's closer to the end!" And flip to the other text. And that's been going on a while. 🥲
I'll finish one of them today...maybe. >:)

Some people only read in bed before they go to sleep – but often find themselves nodding off and then having to try and find where they left off when they pick up the book again the next day. Reading first thing in the morning it can be hard to take things in. Weekend reading is lovely, but you normally just want to relax and not take in a big dramatic tome about world history. Some people who…

Why I Always Read the Last Page...First #ReadingHabits
Do you ever read the last page of a book just to see how it ends? I do! All the time! Check out my blog, so I can try to explain why & hopefully you won't hate me forever! #spoilers
The vast majority of reactions when I tell people I do this OK – that might be a slight exaggeration but with the majority of books I read I do flick to the last page so I know how it ends. I relish in doing things that are “naughty” and this may be the naughtiest thing I do, by members of the book community anyway. I don’t start reading a book by reading the last page, as I wouldn’t know any of…

Upon The King Here is a young Scottish actor with a reading of Henry V. For my money he goes a little too slow in places and my attention drifts, but he has a clear enunciation and good expression. What do you think?
