It is really unfortunate that it is impossible to get the full experience of a novel unless reading it in the language in which it was written.

It’s been a really long week - there’s been a whole bunch of stuff crowding my head that I really feel helpless about, and it sucks. Things I’m worried about but have no control over, people I’m concerned about but unsure how to help.

So Berlin just had its coldest night in 25 years, with temperatures under -20°C (that’s -4°F) and it’s really chilly even right now with the sun out.
