Just started "Paroles de la nuit", à bilingual collection of the catalan poet Màrius Torres. I got it at the library and it sounds pretty interesting already, I'm glad I chose by the title! I'm a very cliché fan of writing about night in my own poetic writings. It's my 25th book so far.

"Parisian Boulevard," Ramon Pichot i Gironès, 1898/1901. The darkness gathers as various figures walk along a tree-lined street illuminated by lanterns. A Catalan Impressionist, Pichot was an early mentor to Salvador Dali and a friend to Picasso and Gertrude Stein. This hangs in the Museu del Cau Ferrat in Sitges, Spain. #art #Impressionists #CatalanArt #SpanishArt
