Hi everyone! Welcome back for the last time (for real this time). The semester is over—I can’t believe it. When people say that time in university flies by, they really are not lying. Since I took RMST 201 last term, I was expecting the same class format, but I was pleasantly surprised by this class. […]

Hi everyone! I hope everyone enjoyed their reading week and is enjoying the sudden snow! Jumping into « The Time of the Doves » by Mercè Rodoreda was like being swept into a storm of emotions, history, and the vivid streets of Barcelona during the Spanish Civil War. And, oh my god, I felt so much anger […]

The man, the myth, the legend: Freud is back yet again. I think I speak for everyone (or mostly everyone) that he was the first that came to mind after reading the first few pages of « Agostino » by Alberto Moravia. I went into this book thinking it would be a fun summer read. And Boy, […]

Hi Everyone! Welcome back yet again for another weekly blog! This week’s book was « The Shrouded Woman » by Maria Luisa Bombal. I have to say this was the book I liked most yet. It was intriguing and had twists and turns. So, it’s the best one yet (probably because a woman wrote it, but I’m […]
