RanaldClouston<a href="https://fediscience.org/tags/FinishedReading" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#FinishedReading</a> this surrealist psychological novel, in which a delusional amnesiac is hospitalized, with a narrative flicking back and forth between his elaborate fantasies and the attempts of doctors to treat / pacify him. This strange novel swings widely in tone and sometimes has very strong 'person describing their dream to you' energy. At its best, as in the 'briefing' of the title, it is a weirdly compelling blend of environmental panic, mysticism, extreme scepticism about science, and many more things that <a href="https://fediscience.org/tags/DorisLessing" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#DorisLessing</a> throws into the mix. I didn't love it and it is not exactly a book that tries to be loved - at times deliberately repetitive, alienating, or deflating - but it was definitely interesting. <a href="https://fediscience.org/tags/Bookstodon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Bookstodon</a> <a href="https://a.gup.pe/u/bookstodon" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">@bookstodon</a>

Lecturas Sumergidas“Nunca leer algo por sentido del deber o porque forme parte de una moda… Recuerde que el libro que le aburre cuando tiene 20 o 30 años le abrirá perspectivas a los 40 o a los 50, o viceversa. No lea un libro si no es para usted el momento oportuno”. <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/DorisLessing" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#DorisLessing</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/DiaDelLibro" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#DiaDelLibro</a> <a href="https://lecturassumergidas.com/2018/08/30/cuadernos-doris-lessing/" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank">https://lecturassumergidas.com/2018/08/30/cuadernos-doris-lessing/</a>
