The storyline of the book reminded me of Plato's Cave Allegory. Maybe you know it. It was a big topic in my philosophy class and other classes too at my school. It's a vague narrative, about a group of people living in a cave their whole lives - they are tied up and can only look in one direction, the back of the cave. Behind them is a fire and people transporting things next to it, so the captured people see blurred shadows of the things on the wall their looking at. They only have their imagination telling them what those things are. One day, one person escapes the cave and sees the things that were transported next to the fire, which were nothing like the images the prisoners imagined. The one who escapes finally sees what the world outside the cave looks like - a sky, a sun, stars, nature, etc. So the escaped goes back to tell the other prisoners what the world outside of the cave can offer. After all, the imprisoned people don't believe the stories about the outside world. The story is about the conflict of your believe system, and how narrow mindedness can make people stuck within their own believes, which may not be the full truth at all.
I read I who have never known men and loved it! It was so eary and weirdly intimate, also pretty relatable since I read it at the beggining of covid lockdown. The book reminds me a lot of the paiting “christinas world” they just give of the same vibe 💗
Jacqueline Harpman is one of my favourite authors! She was a Belgian author and thus wrote in French. You should try to read some of her original work, I promise you won't regret it! She's got the most beautiful writing. In any case, I hope her poetry transpires as well in the English versions!
love your videos! I also recently read I Who Have Never Known Men and I completely agree with you, it really left me with a lot of emotions. loved it though, easily one of the best books I've read in a while!
I tried to read that book maybe it was the description or the plot, I think I got 50 pages in and decided not to read it and i'm so glad you did and you explained the book so well
I had a dream today where you and I were on a vacation together! So funny but I enjoyed that dream a lot since recently I’ve been having nightmares only) I woke up with the best mood as if I actually spent a day in a tropical island ahahah:) Love your editing style, the music choices, my fav RUclipsr since your first video!
0:36 How did you get shots like this from above? Can you please do a tutorial or video on how you shoot and edit and come up with filming ideas please.
Did you enjoy the movie " Poor Things", I usually like the recommandations you give and I've been wondering whether or not I should watch it since it does seem like the kind of movie I wouldn't like but a lot of people have recommended it ? thank you ;)
I randomly picked up I who have never known man a couple of weeks ago and I've yet to finish it. But i actually thought it was kinda weird and not in a good way. I enjoyed it in the beginning, but i felt it simply just got very repetitive as well as ridiculous at some point. The writing style was also not my favourite and the sudden time skips just felt odd after it was describing somthing randomly with intricate detail in the previous paragraph. I think the cosept of the book is good but in my personal opinion it was too short and badly executed.
The bathroom shots where crazy, straight out of cinematics technics!
the angless okayyy
please do a video on how you take your insta pics! they’re so aesthetic 😭
this is my sign to stop procrastinating and do a spring cleanup, thank you for the reminder Eva💌
love u and your creation as always!
