My previous read on House Of Day, House of Night by Olga Tokarczuk was Okay. I was quite amazed at how she could write of something so random and still, makes sense out of it. Nothing is a plot. I think her mind works in random. She writes too casually about Sex, Marriage, Human Behaviours, Love, Womanising, Dream, Gays. The book i read is not a total page turner, In fact, you can start reading it at any page. At the start or even at the middle. Because she writes it so randomly that it won't even matter where you start. Just a perfect book for me. For most authors they go around the bush about Sex or dwell too much on a particular event. And in the end, the whole book is about the same goddamn thing you read in chapter one. As if it's a cycle or something. And worst if you could predict the ending. I prefer it direct. Honest. Real life situations. Something i could relate to, and still bring me to another world. Olga is currently my favourite author, aside from William Boyd.And here's something she wrote about hair." A growing hair gathers a person thoughts . it accumulates them in the form of indistinct particles, so that if you should want to forget something or make a change or a new start, you should cut off your hair and bury it in the ground"Perfect isn't it? Notice how my hair is always short now? Indeed a new start. And then when my hair's too short to be cut. I shall go cut something else instead. No, not frizzy pubic hairs. Somethinelse. You'll see.
