Book tip. Je ne suis pas sortie de ma nuit by Annie Ernaux. Short notes in diary form; reflections, glimpses and memories of Ernaux's mother who is affected by Alzheimer's disease. Beautiful and ugly, painful and very human. This is a BookCrossing bok that I caught at the BookCrossing convention in Wageningen NL i April.

Pachinko by Min Jin Lee. BookCrossing book that will soon continue its journey. The story made a strong and deep impression. Rich and detailed, the different characters are beautifully portrayed; it's heartbreaking, touching, warm, sad and full of love, struggle, devotion, friendship and humanity. A story seldom told and often forgotten; the story of the Korean diaspora; a history I knew nothing about before reading this book. I recommend!

Book tip. La promesse de l'aube, autobiography of French author Romain Gary. I gave this book 5/5 on Goodreads. Colourful and touching and written in a formidable language.

First published in 2019, Starve Acre is eerie and suspenseful, but in a very elegant, subdued way. Its rural setting and folkloric elements place it firmly in the tradition of English folk horror genre, where there is a special - troubled - connection between the protagonists, the land and its numinous, uncanny presences.
