sirazum 's review for:
Vita Nostra
by Marina Dyachenko, Sergey Dyachenko
6 ⭐!!!
I have never read anything like this before....never.....ever....
Beautiful writing, richly layered story, Psychological terror.
"There are concepts that cannot be imagined but can be named. Having
received a name, they change, flow into a different entity and cease to
correspond to the name, and then they can be given another, different name,
and this process—the spellbinding process of creation—is infinite: this is
the word that names it, and this is the word that signifies. A concept as an
organism, and text as the universe."
Everything I ever craved and needed inside my favorite book, this book served it all. It doesn't fall under any specific genre. This is the only Dark academia book I loved so so so sooooooo much after The Secret History.
How did I start this year with a 6 star-new all time fav book? Is that a sign its gonna be a good reading year?!!!
I think this book changed the way I perceive reality. This book changed me, changed the outer layer of my skin, changed the way I think.
Such a big thing to say for a book I KNOW but yeah.
I feel so aware and oblivious to everything at the exact same time. My brain was turning inside out while reading it. After finishing it i feel like I'm a whole different entity. My mind has never expanded more from reading a book. Felt like a fever dream.
I was swimming through space, flying inside water.
Ik it all sounds so weird but if you read this book, trust me it will make sense...it will...its bound to.
After all, these are just
