I first read Anna Karenina in my youth, and at that time, it didn’t make a significant impact on me. However, rereading it now, I’ve come to appreciate the immense scale of Tolstoy's prose, the depth of his ideas, and the way he mirrors and reflects ...more | |
"Эта книга не такая, как другие книги Дмитрия Беркута - хотя, собственно, у него все книги разные.

Соня, уйди! Софья Толстая: взгляд мужчины и женщины:
""Sonya, go away" is not a biography of Sofia Andreevna Tolstoy, rather a lively conversation about what a woman was like, without whom we would not have such a great writer as we know him now. "Anna Karenina" would have lost the incredibly charming s"

"I am helpless to talk about this book. There were a lot of words that I did not understand. Suttree, from Cormac, is a book that deserves, much like some of Malick's films. The pen of the Big Mac is like a brush taking its time on the canvas, where a"

“Our homeland in the language we spoke, thought, and wrote in, not the place where we were born. We live in the space of our language, and to expand it, it's not enough to just leave; we need to start thinking in other languages.”

“We are all connected by the finest of threads. We create worlds for each other through our existence. When someone close to you dies, it immediately affects everything around you; and everyone’s lives, whether they feel it or not, are changed forever.”

“Long ago, we had both realized that the only constructive conversation possible between us was sex. Neither of us could hear normal words. We each spoke our minds and listened only to ourselves. Only during sex did we share sensations and truly be present together. How long could that last? Probably forever. Would we have been happy for eternity? Why not? Sex wasn’t about interests or cultural differences; it was self-sufficient.”

“Because we don't know when we will die, we get to think of life as an inexhaustible well. Yet everything happens a certain number of times, and a very small number, really...How many more times will you watch the full moon rise? Perhaps twenty. And yet it all seems limitless.”

“My message to you is this: pretend that you have free will. It's essential that you behave as if your decisions matter, even though you know they don't. The reality isn't important: what's important is your belief, and believing the lie is the only way to avoid a waking coma. Civilization now depends on self-deception. Perhaps it always has.”
