aelumi's review against another edition
3.0
you are a form of being i, and i a form of being you: those are the limits of my possibility.
the experience of reading água viva is like being submerged underwater, engulfed in thousands of whispers incessantly shaping the ever-passing instant.
it never began and never will end.
meditative in every sense of the word, it’s a laboriously seducing read that seems to linger on upon the moment of closing, however strangely.
i love the ugly with the love of equals (…) i—i am my own death.
(…) the horrible duty is to go to the end.

Always strange and feeling like a dream. A very neurotic one.

Kostte me LANG om te lezen maar het was schitterend.
"It's so odd to have exchanged my paints for this strange thing
that is the word. Words-I move cautiously among them as
they can turn threatening; I can have the freedom to write this:
"pilgrims, merchants and shepherds led their caravans toward
Tibet and the roads were difficult and primitive:' With that
phrase I made a scene be born, as in a photographic flash."
