florencebrino 's review for:
Kusamakura
by Natsume Sōseki
If you work by reason, you grow rough-edged; if you choose to dip your oar into sentiment’s stream, it will sweep you away. Demanding your own way only serves to constrain you. However you look at it, the human world is not an easy place to live.
And when its difficulties intensify, you find yourself longing to leave that world and dwell in some easier one—and then, when you understand at last that difficulties will dog you wherever you may live, this is when poetry and art are born.
Control yourself, you just found another possible 5-star book, which connects so perfectly with the experience you just had with [b:The Penguin Book of Zen Poetry|3276275|The Penguin Book of Zen Poetry|Lucien Stryk|https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1394321659l/3276275._SY75_.jpg|455157] that the result is this year's most harmonic sequence. Don't share every line you're highlighting; it's bad form.

I'm having no problem with controlling myself at the moment. How sad. It's also sad to think I wrote the above paragraph last year, when life, oddly enough, was normal.
