La scoperta ci accarezza il cuore, è il filo che attraversa lo spazio e il tempo, le radici che ci tengono ben saldi alla terra.

Per riconoscerle il diritto di essere stata donna.

В переписке между Лизой и Сашей оживают Петербург и деревня, балы и уединение, жемчуг воспитанности и искренняя самоирония. Пушкин с блеском показывает: настоящая любовь — в нюансах, паузах, недомолвках. Здесь чувства скрыты между строк, а судьба — в молчаливом выборе, сделанном не на глазах у света, а в тишине души.

Lóri, a primary school teacher, is isolated and nervous, comfortable with children but unable to connect to adults. When she meets Ulisses, a professor of philosophy, an opportunity opens: a chance to escape the shipwreck of introspection and embrace the love, including the sexual love, of a man. Her attempt, as Sheila Heti writes in her afterword, is not only “to love and to be loved,” but also “to be worthy of life itself.”

Goodlord is a fictional memoir of habitation, a genre-defying novelistic text that beautifully evokes the people and places of our lives—the spaces of work, those that may or may not be 'home', sites of trauma and ecstasy. Showing all the control of voice one would expect from a poet of her rare skill, Ella Frears has created a book that is as funny as it is harrowing, and beautifully skewers the contemporary housing crisis while questioning the fundamental desires, drivers and disappointments that lie at the heart of our obsession with 'property'.

The words inside are raw, aching, and unfinished. As Auren reads through each letter, he’s drawn back to the coastal town where their love first lived—and to a quiet reckoning he never allowed himself to feel. As Auren rewrites old letters, confronts unspoken truths, and imagines a reply that may never come, he begins to understand that some love stories aren’t meant to be rekindled—they’re meant to be remembered.
